We partner with leading accounting firms across the United States, bringing them together through a shared platform that supports their growth while preserving the local identities and client relationships that make each firm unique. Our partner firms combine the close connections of a local team with the resources of a national community, giving professionals access to broader career opportunities, learning, collaboration, and innovative technology. Whether you join Current or one of our partner firms, you’ll be part of a connected team investing in your development and shaping the future of accounting.

ABOUT THE ROLE

Current is seeking a hands-on, highly strategic Regional Finance Manager to serve as the embedded financial partner to regional leadership. You will function as a trusted advisor who understands the region’s operating environment at every level, from firm-wide business performance down to office-level detail, and who can distill that complexity into insight leadership can act on.

This role reports directly to the Director, Corporate FP&A at Current, while carrying direct, hands-on ownership and accountability for financial planning, reporting, analysis and related support for the Central region.

The ideal candidate brings deep FP&A experience in multi-entity or PE-backed environments and thrives in ambiguity. They are proactive, hands-on, and equally comfortable shaping a strategic recommendation for leadership or digging into the underlying data to understand what is driving performance. Success requires strong executive presence, sharp problem-solving instincts, and the ability to turn complex financial and operational issues into clear, actionable insights, then stay engaged through execution.

This role requires candidates to be based in the Central or West region. Proximity to the region’s firms gives this person the ability to be genuinely hands-on visiting offices regularly, building in-person relationships with firm leaders, and staying close to the office-level detail that drives the analysis. Just as important, this is a team player who integrates naturally with the regional leadership team: someone who earns trust through consistent presence and collaboration, not just the quality of the analysis delivered from a distance.
