Imagine being the architect of a financial revolution where AI doesn't just support finance—it IS finance. Welcome to the next frontier of educational enterprise, where we're not just thinking outside the box—we're building an entirely new one.
At Trilogy, we're not just another education company. We're the force behind a billion-dollar educational transformation, and we're seeking a visionary Global Finance Director who sees spreadsheets as canvases and automation as art. This isn't about maintaining the status quo—it's about demolishing it and building something extraordinary in its place.If you're the kind of financial maestro who gets excited about turning complex financial operations into elegant, AI-powered symphonies of efficiency, you're speaking our language. We're not looking for someone to manage finance—we're looking for someone to reinvent it.This is your chance to be the mastermind behind a financial system so sophisticated, it practically runs itself. No bureaucracy, no unnecessary teams, just pure, intelligent automation at scale.
What You Will Be Doing
Your mission, should you choose to accept it, involves:
- Orchestrating a revolution in financial automation by crafting AI-driven solutions that make manual processes obsolete
- Wielding cutting-edge LLM tools to transform NetSuite, Ramp, and other platforms into a seamless, intelligent ecosystem
- Engineering bulletproof systems for tuition processing, ESA management, and tax compliance that scale effortlessly
- Developing financial reporting frameworks that can handle hypergrowth without breaking a sweat
- Creating the impossible: a billion-dollar finance operation that runs with minimal human intervention
What You Won’t Be Doing
Let's be clear about what this role isn't:
- This isn't a traditional finance leadership role—we're building systems, not managing armies of accountants
- You won't be chained to monthly close cycles or drowning in approval queues
- There's no room for "that's how it's always been done" thinking—mediocrity is the enemy
- You won't be orchestrating from the ivory tower—expect to get your hands dirty
- This isn't a role for those seeking comfortable routine—we're in constant evolution mode
