Обязанности
- is 10 years in and moving from a SaaS business to an AI-native one. That shift changes the shape of the P&L, the way revenue is recognized and the questions leadership needs Finance to answer. The Director, Finance leads the function through it. This is an FP&A-led role. The priority is planning, forecasting and cash, with Finance acting as a partner in business decisions rather than a function that reports on them afterwards. The core planning model and reporting structure are being put in place now. The Director will come in as that work lands, understand how and why it was built, and own it from there. There is still plenty to shape, including finance rhythms, spending approvals and forecasting cadence. This role reports to the Chief Operating Officer, who leads Finance for the company and presents to the board. The Director prepares the finance materials that go to the board and leads the Financial Controller day to day. It is a hands-on role in a lean, AI-enabled team.
