#1 What problem are we solving and why is this an important problem to solveThe current/traditional research methods companies rely on are slow, expensive, and superficial, thereby limiting the quantity and quality of research companies can conduct. Running great research also requires expertise which is a blocker to many companies. That directly affects how well companies understand their customers and how well they can serve them.

As Financial Operations Lead, you will be the architect and owner of Conveo’s financial operations function — owning end-to-end responsibility for converting Conveo's finance function into a bulletproof and scalable operation with necessary controls to scale through Series B and beyond.
Through this role, you'll be the owner, operator, and guardian of Conveo’s financials, work directly with leadership and founders across all divisions, and drive the discussions for every significant call on capital, revenue and expenses, hiring, and growth. In other words, you will be Conveo’s architect that knows every figure of Conveo’s financials.
This role is for an expert in financial control and accounting, someone who owns the books of Conveo with accuracy.
