The Better Angels Society
Chief Financial & Administrative Officer
The Better Angels Society (TBAS) is the pre-eminent organization supporting excellence in American history documentaries to advance education and civic engagement. The organization raises funds to support films in partnership with public media, and its programs provide resources and recognition to an inclusive array of documentaries by established, emerging, and student filmmakers.
TBAS is committed to supporting a diverse community of organizations and individuals through inclusive excellence. We recognize the value of differences and differences of opinion and promote inclusion that reflects the multicultural nature of our nation, including those who experience discrimination or underrepresentation.
The Chief Financial & Administrative Officer (CFAO) will report to the President & CEO. This dynamic and multi-faceted position will play a key role in advancing the strategic growth of a small but complex organization. The CFAO will be responsible for all aspects of the organization’s financial reporting and controls financial planning and analysis, treasury operations, banking relations, investments, tax, audit, payroll, and human resources. The CFAO is the sole finance and HR staff member and will work collaboratively with a small staff focused on fundraising and programs, along with a financially savvy Board of Directors. The position is part-time, 30 hours/week, and fully remote with a flexible schedule. Annual travel is required for two board meetings and two staff retreats.
The CFAO will perform all finance and administrative functions, including accounting, HR, and IT. The CFAO will ensure the organization's financial health, lead budget development and tracking, implement organizational and personnel policies, manage external vendors and contracts, and oversee fiscal partnerships. The CFAO will have an affinity and appreciation for TBAS's mission and will be process-driven and results-oriented. The CFAO will have a proven ability to translate vision and strategy into a clear financial plan with measurable goals.
The CFAO will demonstrate tactical and visionary financial leadership, able to “deep dive” into the details while staying focused on the organization's overall financial health. In an organization of this size, the CFAO will perform a range of tasks, from organizing expense reports to meeting with the Board of Directors. The successful candidate will have demonstrable professional experience in establishing effective internal systems, supporting a dynamic remote staff, and thinking creatively and strategically.
