The Challenge

Join a team innovating the way financial leadership is provided to small and medium-sized businesses.

The Herring Group is growing fast, but we see an enormous opportunity to improve the profitability of many more companies and the lives of their owners and employees.

With the arrival of AI and the availability of vast quantities of data, we are committed to evolving our business model to make a greater impact on a wider range of companies and individuals.

Our founder and CEO is seeking an ambitious strategic thinker with entrepreneurial aptitude to serve clients and develop a plan to pursue these opportunities.

This is a high-impact role for someone who is entrepreneurial, strategic, and passionate about improving the lives of business owners and their employees.

 

The Opportunity

As a Financial Leadership Partner (FLP), you will play a dual role:

  • Serve as a trusted financial leader for our clients, guiding them on the Path to 12% and helping them improve profitability and operational clarity.
  • Help shape the future of The Herring Group by refining and expanding both our professional services and our data analytics and reporting capabilities

Who is The Herring Group?

We are a professional services and data analytics firm. Our team serves as outsourced financial leaders for landscape companies. We focus on the strategies and tactics that help optimize the profit margin of companies, the life margin of owners and executives, and the autonomy of employees.

This is a 100% remote position that provides location flexibility to work from home (anywhere in Texas, Georgia, or Colorado) during business hours.

What You Can Expect

Growth-oriented culture: We grow by serving more clients and expanding our services — and you’ll help lead the way

 

 

Experience working with companies in the SMB market, but no previous landscape industry experience is necessary — we enjoy hiring outside of our industry

 

Performance-based rewards: Our compensation model rewards results and impact

 

Location flexibility to work from home (*anywhere in Texas, Georgia, or Colorado*), during business hours — we value autonomy and collaboration

 

Opportunity to meet the team for in-person gatherings twice a year – no additional travel is expected

 

Meaningful work: we infuse purpose and passion into our day-to-day interactions, knowing that positive change has a ripple effect

 

I was looking for a part-time professional position and was thrilled when I found The Herring Group. The fact the position is 100% remote was icing on the cake. We provide financial consulting services to growing Landscape companies. The work is part contractor (preparing reports and analysis), part consultant (providing finance and accounting expertise), and part coach (meeting with clients and their teams through virtual meetings). We have a collaborative team and professional and engaged clients. Life balance is a priority for our team and a goal we aim to achieve for our clients.

The Herring Group remote model has been a wonderful transition for me professionally and personally. The combination of Teamwork and Technology allows for great service to our clients.
