Ternus is building something rare in real estate finance.
A technology-driven lending and capital markets platform designed to scale aggressively over the next five years.
We are not looking for a career corporate CFO who manages spreadsheets and closes books.
We are looking for a builder.
Someone who understands:
If you are currently a VP or Senior VP in investment banking, private equity, structured finance, or capital markets and you are ready for your first CFO seat, this opportunity was designed for you.
Ternus is a rapidly scaling real-estate-secured lending platform combining:
• Technology-enabled loan origination
• Institutional capital partnerships
• Advanced data and AI-driven underwriting
• A scalable capital markets infrastructure
The company is currently experiencing rapid growth and is building toward a large-scale liquidity event within five years.
This CFO will help architect the financial engine behind that trajectory.
The right candidate will have the opportunity to help scale a platform from early growth stage to institutional exit.
This is a hands-on financial leadership role, not a reporting function.
You will lead:
Ternus is built around five operating principles:
Speed – decisive execution
Transparency – open financial visibility
Accountability – extreme ownership
Respect – strong internal partnerships
Service – building systems that empower the team
This is a fast-moving, execution-focused environment.
The CFO must be comfortable operating in a company where:
• decisions move quickly
• new ideas are tested aggressively
• leaders take full ownership of outcomes
If you are looking for a comfortable corporate environment, this is not the role.
If you want to help build something significant, it might be the most exciting opportunity of your career.
Requirements
The ideal candidate is currently:
• VP or Senior VP in Investment Banking
• Private Equity deal lead
• Structured finance / capital markets executive
• Senior capital markets leader in lending
And is ready for the next step.
You should be experienced with:
• M&A transactions
• IPO or capital markets deals
• IRR and investment modeling
• institutional capital structures
• structured finance
Most importantly, you should want to own the financial strategy of a high-growth company.
Within the first 12 months:
• predictable warehouse and liquidity management
• scalable capital markets infrastructure
• institutional-grade financial reporting
• financial systems capable of supporting rapid growth
Longer term:
Help scale Ternus into a major institutional lending platform and participate in the company’s strategic exit.
Benefits
Base Salary: $250,000
Performance Bonus:
Quarterly bonus equal to 1.00% of company revenue
Preferred markets:
• Charlotte, NC
• Dallas–Fort Worth, TX
Candidates outside these markets must be willing to relocate. Weekly presence in Charlotte office is expected.
Qualified candidates will complete a short assessment and interview process designed to evaluate:
• capital markets expertise
• strategic thinking
• cultural alignment with Ternus leadership
