Обязанности
- We are seeking an experienced Vice President of Finance to lead and scale Mariana Minerals' existing Accounting and FP&A team as we grow from two capital-intensive flagship projects today toward a broader portfolio of commercial mining and mineral-processing operations. Reporting to the Co-Founder & Chief Financial Officer, this role owns the finance organization's execution end to end — technical accounting, close, audit, and controls on one side; budgeting, forecasting, and cross-functional business partnering on the other.
- The ideal candidate combines deep technical accounting expertise with strong strategic and people leadership, and has scaled a finance function before at a capital-intensive, high-growth company. As Mariana continues to grow, this role will play a key part in strengthening internal controls, building financial infrastructure, and preparing the company for its next stage of growth.
- This role will work closely with the CEO, CFO, project leadership, and the board, and will lead Mariana's existing Accounting and FP&A staff across multiple operating locations.
Требования
- 10+ years of progressive finance and accounting experience, including senior leadership spanning both accounting/controllership and FP&A.
- A track record of scaling a finance function at a capital-intensive, high-growth company, such as hardware, industrials, energy, or mining, ideally through a period of significant fundraising or capital deployment.
- Strong understanding of GAAP and core accounting principles; CPA or equivalent technical accounting credential strongly preferred.
- Direct experience owning external audit relationships and board or investor reporting.
- Experience building or upgrading financial systems and processes as a company scales.
- Experience with ERP or accounting systems and financial planning tools.
- Background in natural resources, energy, infrastructure, or other capital-intensive businesses is a plus.
- Experience partnering with government or regulated-industry stakeholders is a plus.
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills, with the ability to work cross-functionally and manage competing priorities in a fast-paced environment.

- Own board and investor reporting, including monthly and quarterly board packages, investor updates, and ad hoc requests from Mariana's investor base.
- Build the financial infrastructure, reporting cadence, and KPIs needed to support Mariana's plan to stand up ten commercial projects over the next decade.
- In conjunction with Mariana’s Controller, own the monthly, quarterly, and annual close process, ensuring accurate, timely, and audit-ready financials across all entities and projects.
- Serve as the primary point of contact for external auditors and tax advisors; manage the annual audit process end to end.

- Lead, coach, and develop Mariana's existing Accounting and FP&A team as headcount and project count scale.
- Evaluate and implement finance systems and tooling, including ERP and planning tools, to replace manual processes as transaction volume and complexity increase.

- Identify opportunities to improve financial processes, reporting, and automation across the finance organization.
