Job DescriptionJob DescriptionOVERVIEW OF THE POSITION
SCORE’s Director of Finance plays a critical role in advancing the organization’s impact and goals through leading key finance, accounting, grants, and cash management functions. Exhibiting exceptional attention to detail, reliability, and accuracy, the person in this role ensures the financial health of the organization and compliance with regulatory requirements.

The Director of Finance leads several key projects throughout the year while managing several ongoing functions. Key projects include the annual budget development process in collaboration with the Vice President of Finance and Operations and the annual external audit. Ongoing responsibilities include tracking and reporting budget-to-actuals and variances, developing grant budgets and the financial portion of grant reports, maintaining compliance requirements, cash management, and researching and implementing process improvements to the organization’s financial and accounting systems. The Director of Finance will also manage a Grants and Development Coordinator.

This position requires an analytical and strategic thinker with excellent communication skills, who collaborates with SCORE team members, external consultants, auditors, bank contacts, and funders. The Director of Finance reports to the Vice President of Finance and Operations.ABOUT SCORE“The progress that our students have made in recent years is inspiring — there is no doubt that they are capable of achieving at high levels and leading Tennessee into a bright future. While education stakeholders are already working together in exciting ways in Tennessee, it is our responsibility to redouble our innovative efforts to ensure that we are supporting our students to truly excel and thrive. The future of our state depends on it.”
— Senator Bill Frist, Chairman and Founder, SCORE

The State Collaborative on Reforming Education’s (SCORE) mission is to catalyze transformative change in Tennessee education so that all students can achieve success. SCORE is an independent, nonprofit, and nonpartisan institution founded in 2009 by Senator Bill Frist, M.D., former U.S. Senate Majority Leader. Striving to be a durable partner and trusted adviser on Tennessee education, SCORE is focused on advancing change for students from kindergarten to career through policy and practice — and taking it to scale.

SCORE has three goals that guide the organization’s work to drive success for all students in Tennessee:
  • All students receive an excellent public K-12 education.
  • All students earn a credential or postsecondary degree of value that prepares them for a career enabling economic independence.
  • Economically disadvantaged students, students of color, and rural students see improved success across all goals relative to their peers.
SCORE is based at 1801 West End Ave. in downtown Nashville. This role is eligible for hybrid work with the expectation of 20 hours per week in the office and the balance of time at the team member’s choosing (unless otherwise notified by their manager).
