About the role

The Huntington Museum of Art is accepting applications for a Director of Finance. CPA designation preferred. Candidates must possess a bachelor's degree in Accounting/Business Administration, or a related field (or an equivalent combination of education and experience) and have a minimum of five (5) years of accounting experience with nonprofit organizations. Experience must include accrual-basis accounting, a strong understanding of nonprofit fund accounting principles and the management of restricted, unrestricted, and grant-funded resources, tracking and reporting multiple funds using Excel, budgeting, audit preparation and support, and the use of automated accounting systems. A thorough knowledge of accounting theory and Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (GAAP) is required. The Museum is nationally accredited, along with only 3% of museums worldwide, and has served the community for nearly 75 years. Education is at the heart of our mission - we reach 18,000 children annually through field trips, classes, camps, and our Museum Making Connections outreach programs into rural and underserved schools and childcare centers. Our tours meet curriculum standards and provide art education to 15 counties in the Tri State area. We are also a tourism driver, with many visitors from across the country and the world coming to view our world class art exhibitions and Conservatory. Beyond this economic impact, we believe the arts are infrastructure for healthy, happy communities. Our team of creative employees are proud of what we do for our community and we look forward to welcoming a new team member on board!

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.
