Job description

At MJH Life Sciences our success is measured by your success! If you set your standards high and want to contribute to a winning team, we’ll provide you with every opportunity to help grow our company and your career. Our associates come from all backgrounds, sharing one key quality: determination to succeed. We value being Service Focused, having a Passion for Winning, Innovation, Respect, Integrity, and Teamwork. Nothing means more to us than hiring people with these attributes. If you believe you’re right for the job, this is the place to prove it!

Who we are

MJH Life Sciences is a healthcare engagement company. We connect pharma, biotech, health systems and animal health companies with the clinicians, pharmacists and patients who matter most. Our brands include OncLive, AJMC, Pharmacy Times, Targeted Oncology, HCPLive, NeurologyLive, dvm360 and NewBeauty, alongside medical education, research, events and agency businesses like PER and BPD Healthcare.

We're private equity backed, we've grown both organically and through acquisition, and we still run like founders. Decisions get made fast here. Good ideas don't die in committee.

Why this role exists

Our finance team is excellent at keeping score. We want it to help us win the game.

Today we run a lot like an accounting department. Books close accurately, audits go clean and the work gets done. What we need next is a finance function that tells the business where to go, and that treats AI as the default way work gets done instead of a side project.

You'll work directly with our CFO, who is one of the rare ones. He negotiates our biggest deals, knows every corner of this business and is already pushing his team hard on AI. Your job is to learn everything he knows, then build the finance organization he wishes he'd had. This role is designed as the path to lead finance at MJH.

What you'll own

Build an AI native finance function. Own the roadmap. Pick the workflows where AI changes the game (close, reconciliations, forecasting, variance analysis, reporting, accounting research, contract review) and rebuild them. Get pilots into daily use, not into slide decks. Measure it in days cut from close, errors eliminated and hours handed back to analysis. Keep the controls, audit trail and judgment a PE backed company demands.

Be the financial partner to the CEO and business leaders. Lead budgeting, forecasting and long range planning across more than two dozen businesses. Know why a brand's margin moved before anyone asks. Challenge assumptions, pressure test investments and tell leaders what the numbers mean for their decisions.

Raise the bar on reporting. Partner with the Controller to run a faster, cleaner multi entity close and consolidation on Workday. Turn monthly reporting into something leaders actually use, and own board and investor materials alongside the CFO.

Do deals. Model acquisitions, run diligence, build integration plans and track whether deals deliver what we paid for. Get hands on with cash, liquidity, our credit facility and capital structure.

Lead people. Mentor, develop and eventually manage the team. Teach people how to work with AI instead of telling them to. Hold a high standard because you respect them.

Who you are

•10 to 15 years in finance and accounting, with a strong technical accounting base (public accounting a plus) and real time in FP&A or a strategic finance seat at an operating company.
•CPA strongly preferred.
•You've worked in a PE backed, multi entity or acquisitive business and you've been close to M&A.
•You use AI every day and you can show us. You've built something with it, automated a workflow or killed a process that used to eat a week. Interest isn't enough here.
•You can sit across from a business leader and change their mind with the numbers.
•You've led teams or big projects and you want to run a finance organization one day.
•Workday experience is a plus. Advanced modeling is a given.

Why you'll want this

•A real mandate and executive backing to rebuild how finance works. You won't be asking permission to innovate.
•Direct access to the CEO and CFO, plus exposure to the board, investors and deals.
•A clear path to lead finance at a company with momentum.
•A business that matters. We help get the right treatments to the right patients, and finance has a seat at that table.

Compensation Rang e

$ 125,000 - $140,000 per year, depending on qualifications. Eligible for annual company bonus program or commission incentive based on role. Compensation will depend on factors including educational background, skills, and professional experience.

Our Operating Standard

We operate with discipline, clarity, and accountability. The ability to effectively leverage AI to improve speed, quality, and output is an expectation in this role, not a preference.

How to apply

Send your resume and a short note on one finance process you rebuilt with AI. What it was, what you used and what changed. That note matters more than any cover letter.
