What are the responsibilities and job description for the Finance Manager position at Evergreen?
Evergreen Services Group is a San Francisco based holding company that acquires and operates B2B services companies across North America. Since its founding in late 2017, Evergreen has completed 100 acquisitions across Managed IT Services, Cybersecurity, Financial Software, ERP Software Partners and Government Services.
