About the role

Houston Chronicle seeks a strategic, hands-on Director of Finance to lead financial operations for Hearst Newspapers' local media business. This role blends technical accounting judgment with business curiosity and disciplined operations. Reporting to the VP of Finance, you will own the monthly close, budgeting, forecasting, advertising accounting, and KPI analysis, while developing people and partnering with senior leaders to drive data-driven decisions in a fast-moving, digital and print

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
