Fast-Growing Fintech Startup | Confidential

We’re partnering with a fast-growing fintech startup to hire its first-ever finance leader. This is a rare opportunity to step in early, work directly with the CEO, and help shape the financial foundation of a business that’s entering its next phase of growth.

This role is highly strategic. While there will be some basic accounting oversight, the focus is firmly on FP&A, debt and financial modeling, fundraising support, and decision-making at the executive level. If you’re excited by building, scaling, and influencing outcomes — this role is built for that.


Why this role is compelling

  • Be the first finance hire and build the function from the ground up
  • True thought partner to the CEO on strategy, growth, and capital decisions
  • Exposure to fundraising, debt structuring, and investor conversations
  • Opportunity to scale with the business and take on broader leadership as the company grows
  • Meaningful impact early — not a back-office role, but a seat at the table


What you’ll be doing

  • Own company-wide financial planning, forecasting, and long-term modeling
  • Build and maintain debt and capital structure models to support growth initiatives
  • Partner with the CEO on strategic planning, pricing, unit economics, and growth initiatives
  • Support fundraising efforts, including materials, models, and investor diligence
  • Translate financial data into clear insights to guide operating and strategic decisions
  • Work cross-functionally with operations, product, and leadership to improve performance
  • Establish scalable financial processes and infrastructure as the company grows
  • Oversee light accounting functions (likely with external support)


Who we’re looking for

  • Background in investment banking, private equity, venture capital, management consulting, or a strategic in-house finance role at a high-growth company
  • Strong financial modeling and analytical skillset, ideally with debt modeling experience
  • Comfortable operating in ambiguity and building from scratch
  • Strategic mindset with the ability to zoom out and execute
  • Excited about joining an early-stage company and growing alongside it
  • Clear communicator who can influence and partner with senior leadership


This is a great fit if you…

  • Want to get in early and help shape a company’s trajectory
  • Prefer strategy, modeling, and impact over pure accounting
  • Are energized by ownership, autonomy, and visibility
  • See finance as a driver of growth — not just reporting
