Base pay range $225,000.00/yr - $325,000.00/yr
Starbridge is seeking a dynamic Finance VP to own and scale all aspects of our financial operations. This role is critical in driving financial discipline, healthy growth, and strategic foresight as we scale rapidly.
You will own budgeting, payroll, tax compliance, accounting, and FP&A more broadly, while partnering cross-functionally to provide business insights and operational leverage as needed.
If you are passionate about building in the AI space, thrive in ambiguity, and veer toward high-ownership environments, we’d love to meet you.
Responsibilities & Impact
Own design & execution of all core finance functions: payroll, bookkeeping, AP/AR/Collections, tax compliance, month‑end close, audit readiness, investor reporting, etc.
Partner with leadership on financial planning, budgeting, and headcount forecasting to ensure alignment with company goals.
Lead FP&A function, including rolling forecasts, variance analyses, and performance insights.
Develop and maintain dashboards and reporting packages that track key metrics (e.g., burn, runway, ARR, LTV/CAC, gross margin, etc.) and power board and investor updates.
Manage and evolve internal financial systems (e.g., QuickBooks, Bill.com, Expensify, etc.), driving automation where possible and reducing manual overhead.
Build and maintain dynamic financial models and scenario analyses to support decision‑making around growth, pricing, hiring, and capital allocation.
Collaborate closely with Sales, RevOps, and GTM leadership to ensure accuracy in revenue recognition and commission plans.
Ensure tax and regulatory compliance across jurisdictions; liaise with external tax and accounting partners as needed.
Implement and uphold internal controls, compliance processes, and financial best practices.
What You Bring Must Have
6+ years experience in finance and/or FP&A roles within high‑growth B2B SaaS, ideally including time at Series A–B stage companies.
Demonstrated exemplary ownership of FP&A, accounting, payroll, and compliance at an executive or leadership level.
Mastery of Excel for modeling and analysis; strong experience creating dashboards and board‑ready materials—you’re a self‑proclaimed Excel wizard.
Exceptional attention to detail, combined with strategic thinking and an ability to translate numbers into action. You thrive in ambiguity and bank on ownership.
Strong grasp of SaaS metrics and finance concepts (e.g., deferred revenue, GAAP vs cash, cohort analysis, gross margin, etc.)
Excellent project management and cross‑functional collaboration skills—you’re extremely self‑directed and thrive in a fast‑moving, resource‑constrained environment.
Deep familiarity with financial tools and systems (QuickBooks, Gusto, Bill.com, Carta, etc.).
Ownership mentality: you have a deep bias toward action.
Nice to Have
CPA or MBA credentials.
2+ years in investment banking, private equity, or equivalent.
Experience preparing for or supporting a fundraise, due diligence, or M&A process.
Experience standing up or managing finance systems integrations or ERP implementations.
Why Join Starbridge
Ownership: Your impact will be as large as you want it to be; we are an incredibly flat team that rewards high performers very quickly.
Autonomy: You’ll have freedom to innovate and iterate alongside the team.
Team: Work alongside sharp, collaborative colleagues who value craft and execution.
Mission: Help modern companies sell into a $1.5T public sector with better intelligence.
Benefits include
Competitive salary + early‑stage equity
Company provided Lunch in office everyday
Complimentary gym (Chelsea Piers Fitness) membership
Unlimited PTO
Regular offsites (NYC + global locations)
Compensation Range: $225K - $325K
