  • Ensure the executive team and board have clear, concise, actionable reporting on financial performance, cash flow, and operating results.

  • Provide executive oversight of the close, external and management reporting, accounting policy application, and audit readiness.

  • Align teams around a common view of actuals, accruals, and reported results.

  • Develop talent and strengthen the organization as the company grows.

  • Strengthen internal controls, reporting standards, and finance processes as the company scales.

  • Oversee the broader financial governance environment, including compliance with company policies and applicable requirements.

  • Manage banking relationships and help ensure the company has the right treasury services and financial infrastructure in place.

  • Oversee liquidity, cash, and treasury discipline to support company operations and growth.

  • Partner with product leadership and executive team to establish best practices for Payments product, including optimization of fund flows, risk management, and network compliance.

  • Provide executive oversight of tax planning and compliance in partnership with internal and external advisors.

  • How do we ensure reporting is timely, accurate, and decision-useful?

  • What are the key drivers of cash generation, liquidity, and financial discipline?

  • How do we build an accounting organization that scales with the business?

  • Where do stronger controls, better reporting, or clearer ownership improve execution?

  • How do we help the business move quickly while maintaining financial discipline?

  • 10+ years of progressive leadership experience across accounting, finance, controllership, or related functions.

  • Significant experience overseeing accounting functions, including close, financial statement review, accounting policy, audit support, and controls.

  • Significant experience leading financial reporting, management reporting, and core accounting operations.

  • Experience leading managers and building strong finance and accounting teams.

  • Experience building executive-ready dashboards, reporting packages, and financial presentations.

  • Advanced Excel and spreadsheet skills, with comfort across financial systems, BI tools, and financial-management software.

  • Experience with cash management, treasury, banking, tax coordination, insurance, or related financial-risk responsibilities is strongly preferred.

  • Experience in software, SaaS, payments, or other recurring-revenue businesses is a strong plus.
