## Job Description

## Responsibilities
- Own the financial model and forecast; turn revenue trajectory into a plan the company runs against and a model the board trusts
- Run board and investor reporting: monthly metrics, quarterly board materials, and the financial narrative behind both
- Own unit economics and pricing analysis (ARPU, gross margin, payback, economics of new lines like benefits brokerage and in-house payroll rails)
- Partner on capital allocation: where the Series B goes, how to think about burn and runway, and the return on big bets like replacing the money-movement vendor
- Build the finance function: hire and lead the controller and ops side; own relationships with wealth, banking, accounting partners, and auditors
- Be the financial backbone of the next fundraise

## Requirements
- 5+ years in finance, including ownership of FP&A and board reporting at a high-growth startup
- Deep FP&A and strategic finance ability; can build a model from scratch and defend all assumptions to a board
- Fluent in SaaS metrics, and ideally fintech or payments economics (float, money movement, multi-product ARPU)
- Partnered directly with a founder or CEO to make decisions and build
- Hands-on now, team-builder later; no task is beneath leadership at this stage

## Nice to Have
- Experience in payroll, payments, insurance, or another regulated money-moving business
- Helped run a priced fundraise
