Job Description

Job Description

About the Opportunity:

We’re working with a rapidly growing SaaS company in the nonprofit technology space that is looking for its first Director of Finance . This is an exciting opportunity to join the executive team and play a pivotal role in shaping the company’s financial strategy, structure, and scalability as they continue to expand.

The organization has grown quickly over the past year, adding multiple new hires, and is now ready to bring financial leadership in-house to ensure consistency, structure, and long-term planning. This is a hands-on role where you’ll wear multiple hats, partner directly with the CEO, and help drive decision-making at the highest level.

Key Responsibilities:

• Oversee all monthly financial reconciliation, reporting, and compliance
• Build and refine forecasting models to support leadership and board-level decisions
• Lead budgeting, KPI tracking, and financial performance analysis
• Manage accounts payable, invoicing, collections, and vendor relationships
• Partner with external tax, audit, and legal professionals as needed
• Support investor reporting and long-term financial strategy

What We’re Looking For:

• 4–5+ years of progressive finance and accounting experience
• Background in SaaS, startups, or other high-growth environments (nonprofit familiarity a plus)
• Strong forecasting, reporting, and KPI tracking skills
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to present financials clearly to leadership and external stakeholders
• A proactive, hands-on mindset — comfortable rolling up your sleeves and building processes from the ground up
• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, or related field

Why Join:

• Be part of a fast-growing, mission-driven SaaS company
• Seat on the executive team with direct exposure to the CEO and board
• 100% remote work environment (Boston-area HQ)
• Competitive salary: $150–160K base + quarterly bonus (up to $20K annually)
• Unlimited vacation and a culture that values growth, innovation, and collaboration
• Proactive, roll-up-your-sleeves mindset — because “that’s not my job” isn’t in your vocabulary.

How to Apply:

If you’re excited by the idea of building a finance function from the ground up in a dynamic SaaS environment and want to make an impact on a mission-driven organization, we’d love to hear from you. Please apply directly or reach out in confidence for more details.
