David Gessner’s Expertise NON-PROFIT FINANCIAL EXECUTIVE Experience in management of not-for-profit financial operations and improving reporting and accountability. Background includes long-term roles in membership association and mission-oriented educational organization, and broad experience in other not-for-profits. I believe that “not-for-profit” is a tax status and not a business plan. Throughout my career, I have worked at enhancing revenue and reducing expense in order to achieve a positive bottom line. Equally comfortable and experienced in financial management and operations of related administrative functions. These include IT & HR management, benefits and administrative services. Strong background in establishing and refining internal controls. Initiated modernizations in accounting processes and systems, taking advantage of e-banking opportunities. Most recent system conversion from Dynamics SL to Intacct. Experience in managing and reporting on both federal and foundation grants and establishing cost controls for grants. Prepared Form 990s and related schedules for 501(c)(3) organization. Some examples of my financial executive leadership include: • Prepared and delivered complex financial presentations to Board of Directors • Negotiated favorable indirect cost rates with US government • Revamped general ledger account structure for more precise reporting • Negotiated favorable loan rates on major real estate refinancing • Shifted finance function from historical reporting to decision-support partner • Managed multiple independent financial, A-133, and 403(b) audits Core skills include: • Financial & Strategic Planning • Finance Operations and Accounting • Budgets and Forecasting • Internal Controls • Grant Management • Account Structure Design • Management of payroll, benefits, and office services Download my resume at https://www.davidmgessner.com I may be reached directly through LinkedIn.
