Company Description
Prism Media LLC (“Prism Media”) is a newly established portfolio company of Soros Fund Management LLC (“SFM”), a global asset manager and family office with approximately $28 billion in assets under management.
Prism Media is a centralized operating platform that supports a growing number of leading digital media and information businesses within SFM’s Media Partnerships and Investments portfolio, including Crooked Media, First We Feast, Her Campus Media, and MeidasTouch Network.
The Prism Media team provides finance, legal, human resources, and operations capabilities to drive efficiency, enable growth, and help shape the next phase of each business.
Role Overview
The CFO is a senior operating officer of Prism Media, responsible for building and leading the shared services platform that supports SFM's media portfolio. Finance, Legal, and Human Resources report directly to this role.
The CFO will have primary accountability for standing up Prism Media as a best-in-class operating platform, establishing the infrastructure, processes, and culture that allow portfolio companies to operate efficiently and at scale. This is a builder's role: the successful candidate will be comfortable creating things that don't yet exist, making decisions with incomplete information, and earning trust with portfolio company leadership through execution.
On the finance side, the CFO will lead accounting, reporting, and financial close cycles across multiple entities, and establish budgeting, forecasting, and performance tracking frameworks. The role requires strong attention to detail alongside the ability to translate financial data into clear, actionable insights for portfolio leadership and the Board.
This is a full-time, New York-area role requiring four in-office days per week in our New York city office.
Major Responsibilities
Platform Leadership & Organizational Build-Out
- Serve as a senior officer of Prism Media, with Finance, Legal, and HR reporting directly into this role
- Build and lead a small, high-performing shared services team across functions
- Define how Prism Media operates, establishing the processes, norms, and infrastructure of a new organization from the ground up
- Partner with SFM and portfolio company leadership to gradually evolve the platform's scope and service model
Financial Reporting & Data Integrity
- Oversee accounting and financial reporting across portfolio companies, including monthly close processes
- Establish consistent and reliable financial reporting across companies, including standardized P&Ls, cash flow, and key metrics
- Ensure financial data is accurate, complete, and delivered on a timely basis
- Provide financial reporting that supports decision-making
Planning, Forecasting, & Business Partnership
- Work with portfolio leadership to build and maintain budgeting and forecasting processes across operating companies
- Work with operating companies to improve financial discipline and reporting quality
Financial Operations, Controls & Infrastructure
- Establish and maintain financial controls, processes, and documentation across a multi-entity environment
- Manage audit, tax, and external accounting providers as needed
- Coordinate with finance resources within operating companies and external providers where applicable, while maintaining direct ownership of outputs
- Identify and implement practical tools and systems (including automation where appropriate) to improve reporting, tracking, and financial workflows
What We Value:
- Bachelor’s degree in accounting, finance, or related field
- A minimum of 8 years of experience in accounting, controllership, or operating finance roles
- Strong foundation in accounting and financial reporting (close processes, consolidations, multi-entity structures)
- Experience with budgeting and forecasting (FP&A), with ability to build on top of a solid accounting foundation and translate financials into clear insights
- Comfortable working directly with operating teams, not just in a reporting capacity
- Familiarity with standard financial tools (e.g., Excel); openness to using new tools, including automation and AI, to improve workflows
