About Our Client

Our client is a growing venture capital firm based in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, with a dynamic portfolio that spans multiple fund structures and business interests. The firm is actively expanding into agricultural investment with a newly launched agricultural fund and maintains an international investor base that includes overseas fund structures (Cayman Islands / BVI). With seven professionals on staff and an ambitious roadmap to reach $500M in assets under management within 3–5 years, the firm is at an exciting inflection point — building the financial infrastructure and leadership team to support its next phase of growth.

The firm operates with an entrepreneurial, results-driven culture. Team members thrive in a competitive, high-accountability environment where initiative is rewarded and leadership is earned. The firm is developing proprietary investor portal technology that could evolve into a standalone product, adding a compelling fintech dimension to its operations.

The Opportunity

Our client is seeking a seasoned Chief Financial Officer (Director of Finance & Fund Operations) to serve as the firm’s first dedicated finance leader. This is a ground-floor executive opportunity for a finance professional with fund experience who is ready to own the financial architecture of a scaling investment firm. Reporting directly to the Managing Partner, the CFO will establish processes, lead investor reporting, ensure regulatory compliance, and serve as a strategic financial partner to leadership.

This role will evolve — there is a clear path to building a finance team (including analyst hires) as AUM grows, making this both an impactful individual contributor role and a future leadership platform.
