<p>Interview fractional leaders this week for <strong>free</strong>!</p>

Rolling Greens Nursery, Inc.

Rolling Greens is an established California company spanning a retail business and a set of profitable contract divisions: Events, Landscape, Interior, and Display. We are currently reorganizing under Chapter 11, Subchapter V to shed legacy retail lease obligations and concentrate on our healthy, growing divisions.

#### Fractional CFO, Restructuring through Stabilization

**The opportunity**

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.
