Vice President of Finance
Location: Dallas, TX
Reports To: Publisher & President
Be at the Financial Helm of Two Iconic Brands
We're looking for a strategic, curious, and forward-thinking Vice President of Finance to lead the financial future of The Dallas Morning News and Medium Giant. This is a rare opportunity to influence the trajectory of two innovative organizations.
In this role, you won't just report on the numbers-you'll shape the story behind them. You'll serve as a key partner to the Publisher/President and executive leadership, guiding decisions that drive sustainable growth, operational excellence, and profitability.
If you thrive in fast-paced, mission-driven environments, and you're passionate about combining big-picture thinking with day-to-day execution, this is the opportunity to make a lasting impact.
What You'll Do
• Serve as a strategic thought partner to the Publisher/President, senior leadership, and corporate stakeholders
• Shape and execute the overall financial strategy-balancing near-term objectives with long-term vision
• Analyze and evaluate new business models, product launches, and strategic investments
• Lead and optimize budgeting, forecasting, and financial modeling processes across business units
• Ensure timely, accurate, and actionable financial reporting (weekly, monthly, quarterly, annual)
• Oversee financial controls, systems, and compliance with GAAP, SOX, and internal policies
• Provide expert guidance on accounting, audit, and financial operations
• Play a critical role in M&A activity, including evaluation, integration, and due diligence
• Lead financial training and development for business stakeholders
• Represent the finance function in executive-level conversations and strategic planning
What You Bring
• 10 years of progressive financial leadership experience (media or professional services industry a plus)
• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, or a related field (MBA or CPA strongly preferred)
• Expertise in financial reporting, accounting practices, forecasting, and controls
• Hands-on M&A and integration experience
• Strong leadership and communication skills, with the ability to simplify complex data for multiple audiences
• A collaborative mindset with the ability to thrive in a dynamic, fast-moving environment
• Curiosity-driven approach-someone who asks why, not just how much
