The opportunity

Precision in the details and perspective on the whole: InnovateCore wants both from its Fargo, ND Finance Manager. What you're signing up for is $85,000 - $132,000, a contract cadence, finance ownership, and an InnovateCore team that rewards nerve.

Key Responsibilities

  • Knit Written Communication pipelines into the close so data lands pre-validated
  • Sit beside the Fargo controller on accruals, deferrals, and journal entries
  • Reconcile equity rollforwards so the cap table never argues with the books
  • Maintain accurate records in People Management and recommend process improvements
  • Model the runway so InnovateCore always knows its next funding date
  • Turn raw ledgers into forecasts the finance team can actually plan against
  • Build the manager analyst's first reconciliation checklist from scratch
  • Forecast headcount costs and partner with HR on compensation planning

What You'll Bring

  • Professionalism, integrity, and discretion with sensitive information
  • 7+ years of Excel reps, not just Excel exposure
  • Comfort being accountable for a client-centric outcome in a contract role
  • Proven Excel results, ideally seasoned in Fargo, ND
  • A growth mindset that treats feedback as fuel, not threat
  • Proven leadership experience guiding manager-level initiatives
  • Ability to thrive both independently and as part of a tight-knit team
