Following some hard but necessary chapters, we’re now on the rise—and we’re calling in strategic thinkers, boundary-pushers, and builders to shape what comes next.
This is a unique opportunity to bring financial rigor and creative foresight to a company in motion. We’re not looking for someone to maintain the status quo—we want a finance leader who sees around corners, loves rolling up their sleeves, and can help fuel transformation with data, precision, and heart.
What You’ll Own
- Strategic Financial Leadership: Lead all FP&A activities, including budgeting, forecasting, long-range planning, and performance tracking across our omnichannel business.
- Insight-Driven Decision Support: Provide forward-looking insights to the executive team, helping us allocate resources wisely and identify new growth levers.
- Operational Finance Excellence: Own month-end close, lead consolidated reporting, and build scalable, tech-enabled processes that power the business.
- Transformation Partner: Drive process and systems improvements that increase agility, reduce manual work, and set us up for future scale—especially in revenue recognition, inventory, and cost management.
- Team Builder: Inspire and mentor a team of finance professionals. Create a culture of excellence, curiosity, and accountability.
What You Bring
- 12+ years of progressive finance experience, ideally with both Big 4 public accounting roots and brand-side leadership in omnichannel retail, DTC, or CPG.
- Experience leading teams through growth and change, especially within companies between $200M–$750M in revenue.
- Proven track record in building forecasting models, implementing new systems, and supporting M&A or structural transformations.
- A strong command of GAAP and financial controls, plus an ability to simplify complexity for non-financial partners.
- A strategic mindset with the agility to go deep in the details when needed.
- CPA required; MBA or Master’s in Finance or Accounting preferred.
You’ll Thrive Here If You:
- Love the build: You’re energized by change and see whitespace as possibility, not chaos.
- See beyond the numbers: You know that storytelling and timing matter just as much as accuracy.
- Believe retail isn’t dead—just different: You’re curious about consumer behavior, digital shifts, and how finance fuels relevance.
- Lead with humility and high standards: You expect a lot of yourself and your team, and you roll up your sleeves to help them get there.
