What are we looking for?

We're looking for a CFO who's not just a numbers person, but a real business partner.

Someone who knows how to build, analyze, and lead.

You'll own the company's financial engine, from FP&A and forecasting to investor relations and funding, and help shape strategy across all activities.

This role is both strategic and hands-on: you'll work closely with the founders and leadership team, dive deep into the details, and make sure decisions are backed by solid data and sharp insights.

What you'll be doing
Strategic Finance & Growth
  • Lead financial planning, budgeting, and forecasting.
  • Develop business plans, assess M&A opportunities, and drive business growth.
  • Build clear financial models and KPIs that guide decisions across all activities.
Investor Relations & Capital Strategy
  • Own relationships with banks, funds, and investors. Manage debt, equity, and hybrid financing.
  • Lead fundraising and M&A processes: due diligence, term sheets, capital structure.
  • Build and maintain investor materials that show the company's vision and performance.
Global Operations & Compliance
  • Oversee group consolidation and reporting across multiple entities and jurisdictions.
  • Manage cash flow, collections, and payments infrastructure, including treasury, controls, and signatory rights.
  • Supervise tax strategy and compliance (transfer pricing, VAT, withholding, cross-border structuring).
  • Maintain the company's data room and ensure audit readiness.
  • Lead financial and legal reporting to local authorities and regulators.
Leadership & Team Building
  • Manage and mentor the finance team (office manager, group controller), expanding capabilities as the company scales.
  • Build strong relationships with external partners, including banks, accountants, lawyers, and relevant authorities.
  • Foster a culture of clarity, accountability, and collaboration across a fully remote global organization.
What you'll need to succeed
  • Rich experience in mobile apps or tech subscription-based businesses.
  • Proven experience in FP&A, fundraising (debt & equity), and investor relations.
  • Strong financial and legal understanding of international operations and multi-entity structures.
  • Sharp with financial modeling, forecasting, and strategic planning.
  • Hands-on and detail-oriented - you should love rolling up your sleeves and delivering impactful outcomes.
  • A great communicator, especially in a remote and global team.
  • Builder mindset - you know how to create systems, structure, and scale.

Lines of communication:

  • Directly report to the CEO.
  • Work closely with the COO, especially during onboarding.
  • External communication with investors, authorities, and service providers.

Requirements
  • Certified CPA
  • Legal education and experience - a plus.
