Director, Finance Strategy & Operations

We're hiring a Director, Finance Strategy & Operations to be the connective tissue of the finance organization and the DRI for the cross-functional programs that make finance work with the rest of the business. This is not a forecasting seat and not an accounting seat. It is a process, technology, and alignment seat: when we need to stand up quote-to-cash, build a customer data cube, redesign the planning calendar, or integrate an acquisition's finance stack, this is the person who owns the outcome, wrangles every team involved, and drives it to done. You’ll work directly with the most senior leaders of the company and drive the change that will enable this company to grow past $1B, helping a pre-IPO healthcare technology finance team that is building its infrastructure for scale. Critically, you'll also be a force multiplier for how finance adopts AI and LLM tooling in its own processes.

• Own Cross-Functional Finance Programs End-to-End: Serve as the directly responsible individual for multi-team initiatives spanning finance, revenue operations, engineering, legal, people, and product (e.g., quote-to-cash, customer and contract data cube, planning-to-close handoffs, M&A finance integration). Set scope, define success, sequence the work, and own the result.
• Delegate Without Losing Accountability: Break programs into workstreams, assign them to the right owners across the org, run the cadence that keeps them moving, and personally unblock what stalls. You keep the whole picture even when you aren't doing every piece.
• Build Strategic Alignment with the Business: Translate between finance and operators. Get sales, product, engineering, and corporate leaders to agree on definitions, owners, and timelines, and make sure finance processes reflect how the business actually runs rather than how finance wishes it ran.
• Operate in a High-Visibility Seat: Your core stakeholders are the Head of FP&A, the Head of Finance, the Chief Legal & Corporate Officer, and the CEO. Expect to brief executives directly, frame the decisions they need to make, and be the face of finance on the programs you own.
• Design Processes and the Systems Behind Them: Map current-state processes, design future state, and partner with Business Systems, Engineering, and vendors to implement. Own the finance-side requirements and acceptance for tools across the stack (NetSuite, Salesforce, planning platforms, data warehouse, internal tooling).
• Take Any Project and Run With It: Act as the jack-of-all-trades the finance leadership team can hand an ambiguous, high-priority problem to with confidence that it will get structured, staffed, and finished.
• Drive AI & Automation Into Finance Processes: Identify where LLM and automation tooling removes manual steps in the processes you own, pilot them, and institutionalize what works. Partner with the AI & Technology Finance lead on standards and governance.
• Prepare the Finance Org for Scale: Document processes, controls, and ownership so that finance can grow toward IPO-readiness without linear headcount growth.
