Chief Financial Officer

Company Description

Rolling Greens is Southern California’s premier destination for unique home and garden experiences, with two retail locations in the Los Angeles area. The stores feature a curated selection of live and artificial plants, home décor, containers, antiques, and one-of-a-kind accents. The company focuses on creating a distinctive lifestyle brand that extends beyond traditional design boundaries. In addition to retail, we have several profitable contract businesses: an event venue in DTLA, landscaping, interior plantscaping and seasonal display.

We are currently reorganizing under Chapter 11, Subchapter V to shed legacy retail lease obligations and concentrate on our healthy, growing divisions. We're looking for a hands-on financial leader to steady the ship through the case and help build the disciplined, well-run finance function the next chapter deserves.

​

Role Description

(part-time, 20 hrs/wk max)

This is a dual-mandate role. In the near term, you'll own the financial workstream of an active reorganization: cash, reporting, and the numbers behind a credible plan. As the case stabilizes, you'll shift into a steady-state CFO role, putting strategy, systems, and best practices in place so the business runs on clean information and sound controls. You'll work shoulder-to-shoulder with the Co-CEOs and COO as a true financial partner, not just a scorekeeper.

Phase 1: Restructuring (now through plan confirmation)

• Cash flow command. Own short-term (13-week) cash forecasting and daily/weekly cash management; protect liquidity and flag issues early.
• Court and trustee reporting. Assist in preparing Monthly Operating Reports and other required financial reporting in coordination with restructuring counsel and the Subchapter V Trustee.
• Plan feasibility. Build the financial model and projections that support a confirmable, realistic plan of reorganization.
• Division economics. Stand up division-level P&L (Retail vs. Events vs. Landscape vs. Interior vs. Display) so leadership can see exactly where profit comes from.
• Stakeholder coordination. Support counsel, lenders, and vendors with timely, accurate financial information.

Phase 2: Stabilization and steady-state

• Systems and best practices. Implement a clean monthly close, reporting cadence, and the financial systems the business needs to scale without fire drills.
• Controls and governance. Establish internal controls and support clean decision-records and authorization practices alongside the Co-CEOs and COO.
• Planning and forecasting. Lead the annual budget, rolling forecast, and KPI dashboards; turn budget-to-actual reporting into a forward-looking management tool.
• Inventory management. Streamline purchasing and evaluate product turnover to maximize cash inflow.
• System integration. Fully integrate the POS system with QuickBooks to maximize reporting for management.
• Capital and banking. Manage banking relationships, financing, and the post-emergence capital structure.
• Strategic partnership. Serve as a thought partner to ownership on pricing, division strategy, and growth decisions.

​

What we're looking for

• Restructuring experience. Direct experience as a CFO, interim CFO, or CRO through a Chapter 11 (Subchapter V a strong plus) or comparable turnaround.
• Senior finance leadership. 10+ years in progressively senior finance roles, including CFO-level responsibility at a small or mid-sized company.
• Hands-on operator. Comfortable in the details on a lean team: building the model, closing the books, and presenting to leadership, not just delegating.
• Systems builder. Track record implementing financial systems, close processes, and controls from a standing start.
• Multi-division fluency. Experience with services or project-based revenue (events, design/build, contract work) and multi-location operations.
• California and cash-tight context. Familiarity operating in California (FTB, EDD, CDTFA, payroll-tax compliance) and managing finance in a cash-constrained environment.
• Credentials. CPA and/or MBA preferred. QuickBooks / ERP proficiency.
• Temperament. Calm, credible, and collaborative under pressure; a clear communicator who earns trust with owners, counsel, and staff.

​

Success in the first 90 days

• A reliable 13-week cash forecast and a clean cash-management routine in place.
• On-time, accurate court and trustee financial reporting.
• Division-level P&L visibility leadership can act on.
• A defined monthly close calendar and reporting cadence the team can run.
• A trusted working rhythm with the Co-CEOs and COO.
