  • Oversee financial operations, budgeting, cash management, and business performance reporting while ensuring financial rigor and discipline across the organization.
  • Evaluate strategic opportunities, partnerships, and emerging business initiatives through rigorous financial analysis and business modeling.
  • Recruit, develop, and lead a high-performing finance organization as the company grows.
Required for the Role
  • 12+ years of relevant experience across strategic finance, investment banking, PE, VC, corporate finance, business operations, or related fields.
  • Experience in scaling high-growth technology or SaaS businesses, preferably in venture-backed environments in the Series B through E stages.
  • Demonstrated success partnering directly with CEOs, founders, and executive leadership teams on strategic and operational initiatives.
  • Experience leading company planning processes, board reporting, fundraising activities, and investor communications.
  • A highly ambitious "roll up your sleeves" mentality and willingness to work cross-functionally to solve complex business problems.
  • Deep understanding of SaaS business models, including recurring revenue metrics, pricing, sales compensation, forecasting, retention, expansion, and unit economics.
  • Strong financial modeling, analytical, and communication skills, with the ability to influence decisions across all levels of an organization.
  • Experience in real estate technology, marketplace businesses, data businesses, or adjacent industries is a plus.
