Position Summary


The Finance Manager creates total financial clarity across the parent organization while serving as the primary, front-facing ambassador to our banking and lending partners. Working directly with the Executive Team, you will manage accounting operations, forecasting, and internal controls, while actively pitching projects to secure optimal financing. Your ultimate goal is two-fold: ensure the CEO always knows the exact financial position of the company and ensure the lending community is highly motivated to fund Rockport’s growth.


Key Responsibilities


Lender Relations, Sales & Project Financing


  • Serve as the primary, high-energy point of contact for existing and prospective bank lenders.
  • Proactively market Rockport’s financial health and project pipeline to expand our lending network.
  • Prepare and deliver compelling, high-quality financing pitches to secure competitive term sheets.
  • Negotiate optimal loan terms, interest rate spreads, and flexible financial covenants.
  • Oversee the construction draw process, ensuring rapid submittals, quick funding release, and tight matching.
  • Manage lender relationships to ensure strict compliance with banking covenants and reporting dates.
  • Own the annual budget creation process and track divisional variance reporting.
  • Oversee company Key Performance Indicator (KPI) dashboards for real-time visibility.
  • Coordinate and prepare all files for annual external financial audits or tax reviews.

Financial Management & Operations


  • Lead, mentor, and oversee the daily activities of the corporate accounting team.
  • Produce accurate monthly, quarterly, and annual consolidated financial reporting packages.
  • Formulate continuous cash flow forecasting models to optimize working capital across various entities.
  • Oversee and implement robust internal financial controls and risk management policies.
  • Drive continuous process improvements across the financial department to scale transactional capacity.
Education and Experience
  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or Commerce.
  • Chartered Professional Accountant (CPA) designation achieved or actively in progress.
  • Minimum of 5 years of progressive corporate accounting experience, preferably within real estate or construction.
Core Competencies
  • Attention to Detail: Absolute precision in numbers, data validation, and documentation tracking.
  • Composure: Proven ability to remain calm, analytical, and structured under tight financial reporting timelines.
  • Relationship Capital & Networking: Proven ability to build immediate rapport, establish trust, and maintain long-term, high-value relationships with external institutional lenders and banking executives.
  • Strategic Persuasion & Pitching: Expert capability to craft and deliver compelling financial narratives that successfully "sell" Rockport’s project viability and financial strength to prospective capital providers.
  • Commercial Negotiation: Strong commercial acumen to aggressively negotiate optimal debt pricing, minimize origination fees, and secure highly flexible, favorable covenant structures.

Performance Measures
  • Reporting Punctuality: Delivery of compliance certificates and financial packages to lenders ahead of contractual deadlines.
  • Time-to-Commitment: Average number of days from project package submission to receiving a formal Letter of Intent (LOI) or term sheet.
  • Loan-to-Value (LTV) Optimization: Success rate in negotiating maximum leverage and optimal advance rates on construction draws.
  • Draw Cycle Speed: Number of days between a construction draw request and the actual release of funds.
  • Elimination of reporting errors and delivery of monthly financial packages on schedule.
  • Accuracy rate of rolling cash flow and project delivery forecasts.
  • Speed and cleanliness of standard corporate audit cycles.
