About the Company

Our client is a fast-growing SaaS company that provides an AI-powered scheduling and lead conversion platform for high-ticket sales teams. The platform helps coaches, agencies, creators, and SaaS companies capture more leads, qualify and route them to the right sales reps, reduce no-shows, and track revenue across their sales funnel. It is used by thousands of sales funnels and integrates with CRMs, ad platforms, and messaging tools.

The company is at an important stage in its growth. It is moving to a more formal corporate structure, which requires formal financial processes and controls. Financial tasks such as payroll and commission calculations are currently spread across company leadership, and a recent wave of sales team hiring has added to the complexity. The company is hiring an experienced Finance Manager to take ownership of its financial operations and build the structure needed for its next stage of growth.

Role Overview

We are seeking an experienced Finance Manager to manage budgeting, forecasting, and financial reporting, and to build formal financial operations for a growing SaaS company.

Reporting directly to the CEO, this individual will work closely with the CEO and the company's external CPA firm to keep the books accurate, produce reliable financial reports, and support strong financial decisions. They will also oversee U.S. financial operations, including banking setup, and take ownership of financial tasks currently handled informally by leadership, such as payroll coordination and commission calculations.

The role begins part-time at 20 hours per week for a 6-month ramp-up period, then moves to full-time. The ideal candidate is a U.S.-based, hands-on finance professional with 5–8 years of experience, a strong accounting background, solid knowledge of U.S. financial operations, and ideally a background in SaaS.
