Compensation: $130- $150k
Location: Toronto (Hybrid)
What is the Opportunity?
Statflo is hiring its first Director of Finance - a senior, hands-on leader who will own finance for the company as we scale. You'll be the most senior (and, initially, only) member of the finance function, acting as a strategic partner to the CEO, board, lenders, and shareholders, while also supporting key operational functions including RevOps and Salesforce administration.
We plan to hire a Controller within the next twelve months to own day-to-day data entry and transactional accounting, but that hire hasn't happened yet - so this role requires a genuine willingness to roll up your sleeves and get into the details until that support is in place. This is a rare opportunity to build a finance and ops function largely from the ground up, shape it in your own image, and grow into a broader leadership role as the company scales.
You will be able to:
Strategic Finance
- Serve as Statflo's senior finance voice with the board, management team, lenders, and shareholders - preparing board materials, financial updates, and ad hoc analyses that inform key decisions
- Own the company's financial projection model and cash-runway model, keeping them current, accurate, and stress-tested against multiple scenarios
- Lead financial planning & analysis (FP&A): budgeting, forecasting, variance analysis, and monthly/quarterly reporting for the leadership team and board
- Manage relationships with lenders and support debt covenant compliance and reporting
- Support fundraising, financing, and other strategic transactions as needed, including data room management and due diligence
- Track and report on core SaaS metrics - ARR, CARR, MRR, gross revenue retention (GRR), and net revenue retention (NRR) - and translate them into insights that shape pricing, packaging, and go-to-market decisions
- Own cap table management and equity administration
Hands-On Finance
- Support the monthly close process, including journal entries, reconciliations, and reporting
- Oversee accounts payable, accounts receivable, and billing/collections
- Ensure accurate, timely, and compliant financial statements and tax filings (working with external accountants as needed)
Operations
- Support Revenue Operations (RevOps): sales forecasting (as part of the projection model), quote-to-cash processes, and commission/comp plan administration
- Administer and continuously improve Salesforce (or partner closely with an admin/consultant) to ensure the CRM supports accurate reporting and clean data across sales, marketing, and customer success
- Manage vendor relationships, contracts, and insurance, and support legal/compliance matters in coordination with outside counsel
- Identify and implement systems and process improvements across finance and ops as the company scales
Team Building
- Define the hiring plan for a Controller and other future finance hires; lead the search, hire, and onboard that person
- Build the processes, systems, and controls that will let the finance/ops function scale smoothly as the team grows
What you need to Succeed?
- 7-10+ years of progressive finance experience, including meaningful time as a Controller or in a similarly senior accounting/finance role, and you're ready to take the next step into a strategic, cross-functional leadership seat
- Strong SaaS industry background, with fluency in ARR, CARR, MRR, GRR, and NRR, and a solid understanding of how these metrics connect to unit economics and business strategy
- Direct experience building and owning financial projection and cash-runway models
- Experience preparing for and presenting to a board of directors, and ideally direct experience working with lenders and/or shareholders/investors
- A genuine willingness to be hands-on with day-to-day transactional work in the near term, balanced with the judgment to operate strategically
- Comfort operating with a high degree of autonomy and ambiguity in a startup/scale-up environment, with strong prioritization skills across a broad mandate
- CPA (or equivalent) designation preferred, not required
- Excellent communication skills - able to translate complex financial and operational information for a range of audiences, from the board to first-line managers
