Finario

Open 73d posting dated 3 days ago
Discussion

Director of Finance and Business Operations

Location: Stamford,Connecticut,United States

Finario is a fast-growing, profitable SaaS company providing intelligent capital planning and portfolio strategy solutions to leading industrial enterprises worldwide. A few numbers worth knowing:

  • Revenue is strong and accelerating. Real sustainable growth, not a story built on burn rate

  • Purpose-built product: Finario is one of the first platforms built specifically for enterprise Capex. True specialist focus in one category

  • Trusted by billion-dollar enterprises: Notable clients include Amway, Bausch + Lomb, and Sephora; all run their capital planning on Finario

  • Investing in innovation: Finario has built its own purpose-built AI (Finario Predict) for capital project forecasting and benchmarking, so you'd be joining a product team that's actively pushing the category forward, not maintaining a legacy tool

  • High-stakes work: this is core infrastructure for finance and ops leaders, not a nice-to-have. Our platform directly shapes how enterprises decide where to put hundreds of millions of dollars in capital investment

About the role

This is a right-hand operator role for the founder of Finario. You'll be the only person running commercial finance, accounting, office operations and special projects- handling the day-to-day of the business so the founder can stay focused on customers, product, and growth.

If you've been the sole finance and operations person at a small services or technology company before and genuinely enjoyed the breadth and ownership, this is the role you've been looking for. If you want to build a finance department, manage a team of analysts, or work on capital raises and VC reporting, this isn't the role for you, and that's fine.

What you'll actually do

Day-to-day, hands-on:
  • Produce monthly financial reporting for the founder

  • Run the books in QuickBooks Online yourself including A/P, A/R, journal entries, monthly close

  • Trigger and reconcile payroll (we use a PEO)

  • Manage cash, expenses, and vendor payments

  • Handle sales tax compliance and coordinate with our outside CPA on tax filings

  • Keep the office and business operations running smoothly

Periodically, with judgement:
  • Help structure pricing and contract terms on enterprise customer software deals

  • Lead vendor sourcing and renegotiation projects- insurance, software, services, banking

  • Take on whatever special projects come up: system selections, process improvements, ad hoc analysis

Required Qualifications

  • Someone who's been the only finance/operations person at a smaller company and loved it

  • 4+ years in in hands-on accounting

  • Experience using QuickBooks Online (you use it yourself rather than delegate it)

  • Good commercial judgment - you've seen vendor contracts, pricing models, and customer agreements before

  • Experience and detail-oriented but pragmatic about the 80/20 in a growing company

  • Comfortable being the only person in your function, this is an high value IC position, not looking for someone to manage a team

  • Bachelor's Degree

Desired Skills & Experience

  • Experience in enterprise technology firms; B2B SaaS even better

What’s in it for you

  • Direct, high-visibility partnership with Finario's founder- this isn't a role buried three layers into an org chart, it's a seat where your work on how the business runs gets seen and acted on

  • Competitive total rewards package

  • The little things matter: Fully funded parking (or hop the train, we're right across the street), fully stocked kitchen, stunning modern office space
