Opportunity at a Glance Chamberlain University is hiring a Director, Finance to lead financial planning, performance management, and strategic decision support for a mission-driven institution educating the next generation of healthcare professionals. Reporting directly to the CFO, you will own the numbers that shape how Chamberlain grows - and the narrative that helps leadership act on them. This is a high-visibility leadership seat for a finance executive who moves fluidly between financial models and high-impact interactions with leadership teams. You will be as comfortable architecting a driver-based enrollment forecast against large, imperfect data sets as you are standing in front of Chamberlain's leadership team explaining what it means and - most importantly - what to do about it. Responsibilities: • Planning cycles. Annual budget, monthly forecast, and long-range plan - built on real business drivers and tied to strategic priorities. • Forecasting infrastructure. Design and build complex, scalable forecast tools that work across large data sets - student-level enrollment, course registration, tuition, and expense detail - using the modern toolkit available to finance professionals today. • Executive deliverables. Produce monthly, quarterly, and annual reporting packages and presentations for the C-suite, the board, and parent-company partners that are both polished and accurate. • Performance reporting. Monthly P&L, KPI, and management reporting that makes trends, risks, and opportunities easy to understand. You will bring clarity and conciseness to complex financial analysis. • Decision support. Variance, driver, scenario, and sensitivity analysis across enrollment, revenue, operating expense, and margin. • Business cases. Models that underwrite new programs, capital investments, operational improvements, and resource allocation decisions. • Cross-functional partnership. Embedded work with academic, operations, enrollment, marketing, and accounting teams to evaluate performance and improve outcomes. • Multi-year strategy support. Enrollment, tuition, cost, and profitability analysis that tests growth strategies against organizational capacity. • Process and tooling. Greater standardization, automation, and data quality across FP&A processes, planning tools, and dashboards. • Initiative ROI. Post-investment tracking that refines assumptions and makes the next decision better than the last. Qualifications • Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, or related field. MBA, CPA, or CMA preferred. • 8+ years of progressive FP&A or corporate finance experience, including direct people leadership and demonstrated ownership of enterprise planning processes. • Deep command of financial modeling, forecasting, budgeting, and performance analysis - grounded in what drives value creation. • Proven ability to build complex forecasting and analytical tools on large data sets, with fluency in the current technology stack available to finance professionals, including those enabled by AI. • Demonstrated track record producing executive-level deliverables for C-suite and board audiences that are simultaneously polished and accurate - clean design, tight narrative, and the process discipline to do this in a repeatable, efficient manner that enables consistently meeting deadlines. • Track record owning or materially influencing P&L management, executive reporting, and cross-functional decision support. • Ability to lead complex analysis, triage competing priorities, and deliver quality work at pace. • Communication that translates financial complexity into clear direction for non-financial audiences. • Proven ability to build trust, influence stakeholders, and drive continuous improvement.
