About the company

Turning marketing into a market-domination weapon, we created a new category - the marketplace for future customers. Businesses shop for leads as they shop for products in e-commerce: you see everything about a lead before you buy - full transparency, control, and predictable outcomes. We're the #1 lead marketplace in the USA, and we're accelerating.

Role overview

We're looking for a Financial Director who will own the full finance function with a strong focus on the US market. Your job is to keep our numbers accurate, compliant, and decision-ready as we scale, and to build the financial foundation needed for IPO-level readiness. This role exists to help the CEO make faster, smarter moves with clear financial visibility.

What You'll Be Doing:

Own company-wide financial management with a focus on US operations and compliance

Build and maintain executive-level reporting across P&L, Cash Flow, and Balance Sheet

Manage cash flow, runway, and the payment calendar to keep the business stable and scalable

Lead budgeting, forecasting, and scenario modeling to support growth decisions

Partner with external US accountants, auditors, and tax advisors to ensure accuracy and compliance

Drive IPO / pre-IPO readiness by improving reporting quality, controls, and financial discipline

Work closely with leadership and business teams to evaluate investments, expansion plans, and cost efficiency

What Makes You a Strong Fit:

5+ years of experience in senior finance roles (Finance Director / Head of Finance / CFO-level scope)

Strong hands-on expertise with the US market - finance, accounting, tax, and regulatory basics

Proven experience supporting IPO or pre-IPO processes (reporting, audit readiness, controls)

Background in a fast-growing IT company or startup environment with high speed and constant change

Confident financial modeling and analysis skills in Excel / Google Sheets

Practical experience using AI tools to automate reporting, analysis, and finance workflows

English level: Upper-Intermediate+ (you'll use it daily with US partners, documentation, and external advisors)

Bonus if you have:

Experience in SaaS, PropTech, MarTech, or marketplace business models

Experience working with investors, fundraising, or financial due diligence

Experience building finance processes from scratch (systems, policies, reporting routines)

People management experience or readiness to build a finance team

Why You'll Love It Here:

You'll work at the core of a product-led, AI-powered startup where data drives every decision

Your work will ship fast and impact thousands of users

High autonomy, low bureaucracy: we trust you to own your domain

Remote-first culture with flexible hours and async-friendly communication

Salary (fixed base) ABOVE the market average

A smart, passionate team that moves fast, supports each other, and builds cool stuff

15 paid vacation days plus 5 paid sick days annually
