Oversee FP&A, deliver accurate forecasts and KPI-driven insights using data from our financial tech stack (Maxio, Mosaic, QB Online, and HubSpot) to support OKRs and operational goals.
Oversee the management of the accounting function, ensuring compliance with GAAP, tax, audit, credit agreements, and reporting deadlines.
Optimize cash flow through robust forecasting, monitoring, and reporting procedures to maintain liquidity.
Lead a finance team of approximately 4-5 professionals, including the Controller, staff accountants, and additional roles as needed, fostering a culture of accountability and innovation. HR Administration falls under a different department.
Risk, Compliance & Governance
Maintain a strong internal control environment to safeguard assets and ensure operational integrity.
Identify and mitigate financial and operational risks, including currency and cross-border tax considerations for potential international expansion.
Lead audit readiness and ensure compliance across multi-jurisdictional regulations.
Cross-Functional Leadership & Investor Relations
Collaborate with Sales and Customer Success to enhance pricing strategies, deal structures, and customer lifetime value, tailored to government and government-adjacent clients.
Partner with HR and IT to align workforce planning, recruiting, and systems with financial goals.
Deliver quarterly board presentations and manage investor/lender communications to support capital strategy execution.
Manage key vendor relationships to optimize cost, compliance, and service effectiveness.
Qualifications & Experience
Proven experience scaling a profitable B2B SaaS company from $30M to $50M+ ARR. Added bonus if SaaS experience was serving government or government-adjacent clients.
Strong equity-backed experience with quarterly investor-facing responsibilities.
Demonstrated success leading M&A (deal execution and integration), with a track record of 1-2 successful deals.
Proficiency with financial systems (Maxio and QB Online), CRM (HubSpot) and analytics tools (Mosaic).
Bachelor’s degree in finance, accounting, or a related field; MBA, MS, or CPA preferred.
