Director of Finance & Accounting

Hotel Rehabs
Chicago, IL

We are open to nationwide candidates with excellent Construction F&A experience within the GC landscape. We have offices in Chicago, Nashville, and Phoenix. If you have the experience, we want to hear from you, regardless of location.

Director of Finance & Accounting (Construction)

This role is the head of Finance & Accounting and a member of the Hotel Rehabs leadership team from day one. You’ll own our financial strategy, lead and grow the F&A department, and be a true business partner driving the future of the company.

Construction is messy. Renovating hotels nationwide is even messier. That’s why Hotel Rehabs doesn’t need just a “finance person.” We need a leader who can dive into the details, zoom out to the big picture, and help us grow from $50MM to what’s next.

Hotel Rehabs is a nationwide turn-key hotel renovation contractor and a five-time Inc. 5000 honoree. We don’t just renovate properties—we transform Hilton, Marriott, and IHG hotels into assets that drive revenue, elevate guest experience, and stand out in competitive markets.

This role is part Controller, part Director, part CFO. One day you’re in the weeds solving project accounting challenges, the next you’re sitting at the table with the CEO and COO shaping long-term strategy. You’ll lead three sharp F&A team members (soon to be four), build scalable systems, and give the company the financial visibility to make smarter, faster decisions.

If you’re looking for a cushy CFO seat, this isn’t it. If you’re excited to build, solve, and lead—keep reading.

Core Responsibilities

  • LMA: Lead, manage & hold your team accountable
  • Business & Tax Compliance: Licensed in 35+ states (and growing)
  • Planning & Reporting: Drive clarity with financial + operational metrics
  • Cash & Risk Management: Protect and grow financial strength
  • AP/AR + Fundamentals: Keep the engine running smooth
  • Budgeting & Forecasting: Help us see 12, 24, 36 months ahead
  • Problem-Solving Partner: Work across the company to solve challenges, unlock growth, and improve performance

Who You Are

  • A finance leader who’s part operator, part strategist
  • Comfortable dipping into the weeds but always able to zoom back out
  • Expert in construction finance, project accounting, GAAP, and cost control
  • Strong communicator—positive, upbeat, and solutions-focused
  • Tech- and automation-savvy (ERP, integrations, reporting tools)
  • A proven leader who can grow and coach high-performing teams

Why This Role Matters

This isn’t just about reporting numbers. It’s about helping us see where we’re going—and getting us there. From shaping financial strategy to solving day-to-day problems, you’ll have a critical voice on the leadership team, working side by side with the CEO, COO, and executive team to drive growth, improve efficiency, and elevate Hotel Rehabs to the next level.

What We Offer

  • Top-tier health, dental, vision, life
  • 401(k) fully matched + vested day one
  • Competitive pay + fast-track career growth
  • PTO, team events, travel incentives
  • 4-week paid sabbatical after 5 years
