Chief Operations and Finance Officer

About NVI

\n

NVI Workforce Development is a social enterprise and nonprofit subcontractor serving individuals with significant barriers to employment. With a ~$4M operating budget, 182 employees (165 part-time), and a growing portfolio of production contracts and services programs, NVI is at an inflection point. Its production operations serve as the primary revenue engine that funds its services mission — a model that distinguishes NVI from grant-dependent nonprofits and demands strong operational and financial leadership.

Why This Role Exists

\n

NVI's single-leader model has served the organization well through its early growth stage. As NVI scales — in workforce size, contract volume, and mission complexity — the President role must shift outward toward strategy, partnerships, and business development. The role is designed to own everything that makes internal operations work: financial controls, production quality, safety systems, performance metrics, and staff accountability. This is a strategic execution role.

\n

This position represents a unique opportunity to join an organization at a critical growth stage — and to build the operational and financial infrastructure that will define NVI's next chapter.
