  • **The Opportunity**
  • We moved from $16M to $25M+ this year and are actively building the infrastructure to hit $95M+ by 2027. This isn't a caretaker role or a slow-growth maintenance job. We are looking for an execution-focused Head of Finance who has already navigated the $20M to $100M scale-up journey, understands the friction points, and knows how to build for speed without breaking unit economics.
  • **What You'll Do**
  • **Financial Strategy & Cash Management:**
  • Serve as a strategic thought partner on growth decisions, working capital strategies, inventory financing, and tax optimization.
  • **Core Finance & Accounting:**
  • Fully own FP&A, cash flow modeling, monthly reporting, tax planning, and compliance.
  • **Scalable Systems & Controls:**
  • Design, implement, and upgrade financial systems, and internal controls capable of handling 4x volume.
  • **Team & Infrastructure Building:**
  • Hire, mentor, and structure a high-performing finance and accounting team to support long-term scale.
  • **What Matters to Us**
  • **Scale-Up Experience:**
  • You’ve been in the trenches during a $20M–$100M hyper-growth phase in e-commerce or consumer goods. You know where systems break before they actually do.
  • **Hands-On Execution:**
  • You are comfortable laying the strategic roadmap on Monday and diving deep into the spreadsheets or inventory models on Tuesday.
  • **Technical Rigor:**
  • Strong background in accounting fundamentals, financial systems, and internal controls.
  • **Operational Communication:**
  • Exceptional ability to translate complex financial metrics into actionable insights for marketing, operations, and supply chain teams.
  • **Process Architecture:**
  • You don’t just run existing processes; you build scalable infrastructure from scratch.
  • **Qualifications**
  • 7+ years of progressive finance/accounting experience, with direct experience in a high-growth e-commerce or DTC environment.
  • Proven track record managing inventory-heavy working capital cycles and multichannel cash flows.
  • CPA, MBA, or investment banking background is a plus, but proven scale-up operating experience is what matters most.
  • **How to Apply**
  • Submit your resume alongside a brief summary of a key operational or financial bottleneck you solved while scaling a previous business.
