Role Description The Vice President of Finance is a rare opportunity for a senior finance leader who wants to do more than manage numbers—you’ll help build the financial architecture of an organization with a genuine mandate to shape America’s energy future. Reporting to the Chief Operating Officer, the VP of Finance leads the day-to-day financial operations, financial planning, and fiscal stewardship of the Foundation. You (in collaboration with an external Controller partner, whom the VP will supervise) will ensure that FESI’s financial systems, controls, and processes support mission delivery, operational excellence, and the organization’s role as a trusted philanthropic partner to the U.S. Department of Energy.

Qualifications - Bachelor’s degree in finance, accounting, business administration, or a related field; CPA or Certified Nonprofit Accounting Professional (CNAP) strongly preferred. - 10+ years of progressive financial management and leadership experience, preferably in nonprofit, philanthropic, or mission-driven organizations. - Strong knowledge of nonprofit accounting, fund accounting, and GAAP - with hands-on experience managing restricted and unrestricted funds across multiple grants and donor relationships. - Demonstrated experience working with boards, audits, and complex financial structures. - Experience in public-private partnership finance: blending or braiding public and private capital from the nonprofit side of the house; candidates from community foundations, hospital foundations, or similar intermediaries are encouraged to apply. - Exceptional analytical, communication, and leadership skills; executive presence with the ability to build trust across government, philanthropic, and private sector stakeholders. - Comfort operating in ambiguity and designing systems and processes from scratch. Requirements - Oversee all core finance operations, including accounts payable and receivable, cash management, payroll coordination, and expense reimbursement. - Lead and manage rigorous fund accounting across all revenue streams—including federal-adjacent philanthropic activity, restricted donor funds, and unrestricted operating capital—ensuring traceability, accuracy, and compliance at all times. - Maintain and continuously improve finance systems, workflows, and internal controls; current systems include Sage Intacct, Martus, and Bill.com. - Ensure timely, accurate processing of payments, invoices, and financial transactions. - Supervise finance staff and external bookkeeping or accounting partners as applicable. - Ensure timely, accurate reporting for the board, donors, partners, and regulators. - Lead the annual budgeting process in collaboration with the COO and leadership team. - Develop and maintain multi-year financial forecasts aligned with strategy and program plans. - Support ongoing budget management, variance analysis, and re-forecasting. - Provide decision-making financial insights to support program execution, advancement strategy, and commercialization timelines. - Develop and oversee the organization’s financial strategy in alignment with mission, programmatic priorities, and commercialization activity. - Lead implementation and day-to-day management of the Foundation’s investment strategy in accordance with the IPS (investment policy statement). - Serve as the primary internal expert on investment structures, risk, liquidity, and financial performance. - Collaborate with the VP of Commercialization Platform to evaluate, structure, and execute mission aligned investment opportunities. - Ensure strong financial controls, audit readiness, and compliance with nonprofit accounting standards, GAAP, and all applicable regulatory requirements. - Manage compliance related to restricted and donor-advised funds, grants and awards, and DOE-adjacent philanthropic activities. - Track and report on multiple grants, donors, and fiscal reporting requirements with precision. - Partner with the COO to manage organizational risk and strengthen financial governance. - Prepare financial materials for board and committee review.
