What they're looking for

  • Give every department head line of sight. You’ll work with each leader so they always know where their budget stands, what’s changed, and what tradeoffs they’re facing
  • Own planning and forecasting. That covers the annual plan, quarterly reforecasts, the operating model, the cash forecast, and scenario planning for pricing, hiring, and growth
  • Oversee accounting end to end. You’ll oversee month-end and year-end close, AR/AP, revenue recognition, and tax, and build a faster, cleaner close as we scale
  • Lead the audit and keep us compliant. You’ll own the annual audit and keep us current on tax and regulatory requirements everywhere we operate
  • Manage investor and lender relationships. You’ll own board and investor reporting, manage our banking and lending partners, and lead fundraising work from model to data room
  • Level up the finance function. You’ll grow and lead the team, decide what to bring in-house versus outsource, and use AI and automation to keep a lean team operating well above its size
