  Davidson is not looking for a CFO who just closes the books-we want a visionary business partner who can translate numbers into strategy and opportunities into growth. If you thrive on building something bigger than spreadsheets, if you see finance as a lever for transformation, and if “status quo” makes you restless, keep reading.
  As Davidson’s CFO, you’re not a back-office executive. You’re a strategic architect, a storyteller of numbers, and a driver of innovation. You’ll lead financial strategy with a lens on growth, resilience, and value creation-fueling decisions that partner with our team to shape the future of Davidson.
  This is not about managing debits and credits. It’s about creating clarity in ambiguity, steering through complexity, and inspiring confidence in every stakeholder.
