Strategic Finance Manager

About:

This role will sit at Keller Postman’s affiliated entity, Atticor Group LLC. Atticor is building a scaled, AI-enabled platform in the personal injury and single-event legal market. We combine a disciplined regional acquisition strategy, a de novo nationwide brand, and an AI-native services business operating through a Management Services Organization (MSO) structure. The platform is well capitalized with a robust acquisition pipeline closing and under signed term sheet. We are scaling rapidly and building institutional-grade infrastructure across finance, operations, and technology. This is a ground-floor opportunity to help architect the finance and reporting engine of a platform designed for significant scale.

Purpose:

We are hiring a Strategic Finance Manager to be a key leader within the Strategic Finance team. This role sits at the center of the consolidated platform’s reporting across MSO entities, law firm financial performance, acquisition integration and normalization, marketing and unit economics analytics, and executive and investor reporting.

You will lead the design, buildout, and scaling of the company’s financial reporting and analytics infrastructure. This role requires strong technical capability, systems thinking, and the ability to operate as a strategic partner to executive leadership. There will be evenings and occasional weekends, particularly around close cycles, acquisitions, board reporting, and capital markets activities.

This is a full-time, in-person role in our Chicago office.  Compensation for the role is an annual base salary of $140,000 to $170,000, depending on experience; plus the role is eligible for competitive year-end discretionary bonus and benefits.

• Ensure reporting integrity, auditability, and timeliness across multi-entity consolidations.

• Drive automation initiatives and reduce manual reporting processes.
• Develop structured, reliable data outputs from accounting and operational systems.
• Partner on BI tool implementation and dashboard strategy.
• Establish repeatable reporting frameworks to support rapid acquisition growth.

Strategic & Operational Analytics

• Identify process gaps and implement scalable solutions across teams.

Qualifications:
