📋
Description
- We’re hiring an experienced Director of Finance to lead the financial strategy as Vocal Media scales aggressively into new markets, verticals, and M&A. This is not a traditional “keep-the-lights-on” finance role — you’ll be the CEO’s primary co-pilot for identifying, modeling, and executing multi-million-dollar growth bets.
- If you’ve taken a services business from $20M → $50M+, built new verticals from scratch, or led the financial charge on a 7- or 8-figure deal, we want to talk.
- Core Responsibilities – Revenue and Growth (60% of role)
- Architect and launch new revenue streams: build financial models, pricing frameworks, and go-to-market economics for new business lines and service offerings
- Lead financial due diligence, valuation, and integration planning for acquisitions and strategic partnerships;
- Create bulletproof business cases and ROI projections for every major growth initiative;
- Design scenario models for capital allocation, fundraising, and 3–5-year strategic plans;
- Translate unit economics, LTV, contribution margins, and competitive benchmarks into clear strategic recommendations;
- Present growth opportunities and financial narratives to the board, investors, and executive team.
- Core Responsibilities – FP&A and Leadership (30% of role)
- Own forecasting, budgeting, and KPI dashboards across all business units;
- Drive pricing optimization and margin expansion initiatives;
- Serve as the go-to strategic advisor on profitability, scalability, and capital structure.
- Core Responsibilities – Accounting and Infrastructure (10% of role)
- Oversee accounting operations, external auditors, and compliance (supported by an external firm);
- Ensure scalable systems, controls, and processes as we grow 3–5x.
- Required Qualifications
- 6+ years of progressive finance experience; minimum 3 years in strategic finance, corporate development, or IB/PE
- Proven track record of building and scaling new revenue lines that added ≥$10M ARR (or equivalent impact)
- Master-level financial modeling (you can build a 3-statement LBO + revenue waterfall in your sleep)
- Deep agency / professional services economics expertise (utilization, realization, client concentration, etc.)
- Experience presenting to boards and investors; ability to distill complexity into compelling stories
- Bachelor’s in Finance, Accounting, or Economics; MBA or CPA strongly preferred
- Preferred Qualifications
- Media, marketing, creator economy, or tech platform experience
- Closed 1–3 acquisitions or major partnerships end-to-end
- Private-equity, investment banking, or high-growth startup background
- Familiarity with digital content monetization and influencer marketing KPIs
- Benefits
- Health insurance covered at 90% for full time employees; Dental and Vision available
- Unlimited PTO and sick leave
- 401(k) plan & company contribution
- Salary Range: $120,000 - $140,000 a year
- Salary commensurate with experience
