Hamra Jewelers
We are looking for an experienced, forward-thinking Head of Finance to join our executive team and serve as a strategic partner in our high-growth luxury jewelry business. This role combines financial strategy, hands-on leadership, technology implementation, and operational excellence to drive efficiency and transparency across revenue inputs and outputs.
The ideal candidate has a proven background in luxury retail or high-end goods, experience leading finance in a multi-entity environment, and a track record of building systems and reports from the ground up.
This is not a sit-behind-the-desk role — we are looking for someone who is equally comfortable building a 13-week cash flow as they are rolling up their sleeves to solve a system reconciliation issue or working side-by-side with the store team to improve point-of-sale data accuracy.
