About the role

UCLA School of the Arts and Architecture seeks a Director of Finance to lead its financial administration and Business Office operations. You will translate the COO/CFO's strategy into budgets, forecasts, controls, reporting, systems, and service delivery across multiple departments and units. The role requires advanced accounting and forecasting skills, strong leadership, and a track record of managing complex higher-education finances with donor and grant constraints.

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.
