Vice President of Finance, Burq

• 10+ years across finance and operations with senior leadership experience — VP of Finance, Head of Finance & Operations, or CFO-track at a high-growth startup
• A hands-on player-coach — you build the model, the forecast, and the board deck yourself before you have a team to delegate to, and you're comfortable in the details of the ledger
• Has led or been central to growth fundraising — modeling, diligence, and investor/board management
• Command of marketplace / usage-based accounting — gross-vs-net revenue treatment, revenue recognition, high-volume transaction reconciliation, and contractor/provider payouts
• Built and scaled an FP&A function and matured finance operations into a rigorous, reliable engine
• Strong command of unit economics and the metrics that define a marketplace — take rate, contribution margin, CAC:LTV, net revenue retention, burn multiple — plus revenue strategy (pricing, packaging, expansion)
• Operational breadth — comfortable owning or partnering across HR, Legal, and broader G&A
• Deep accounting fluency (CPA or equivalent experience a plus), with a track record of clean, timely closes and sound controls
• A genuine strategic partner to founders who turns numbers into company-building decisions

Desirable

• We're looking for a VP of Finance to take Burq's finance and operations to the next level
• We have a foundation in place — the systems, partners, and core operations that keep the business running
• What we need now is a leader who can scale it into a strategic engine for the company: sharper planning, real financial rigor, and the operational muscle to support our next phase of growth
• This is not a role for someone who just manages the books. You'll be a true partner to the founders — owning how we plan, how we allocate capital, how we price and grow revenue, and how we run the company operationally
• You're equally comfortable building the first model in a spreadsheet yourself and presenting it to the board: a builder, not just a manager
• You'll bring a strong operational pulse across finance, revenue, and G&A, and you'll help us grow the entire business
• High ownership, high leverage, direct line to every decision that matters
• Financial Strategy & Planning:
• Own budgeting, forecasting, and a rolling financial model grounded in actual results
• Deliver real-time visibility into burn, runway, and cash
• Install capital-allocation discipline: clear ROI on every team, initiative, and investment
• Produce board-grade financial reporting, analysis, and hygiene
• Revenue Strategy & Operations:
• Own and shape our revenue strategy end to end — pricing, packaging, and monetization
• Build the upsell and expansion motion
• Model the unit economics and metrics that define a marketplace — take rate, contribution margin per delivery, gross margin, CAC:LTV, net revenue retention, and burn multiple
• Partner with Go-to-Market on deal-level pricing for complex enterprise opportunities, and stand up revenue forecasting and operating rigor
• Accounting, Financial Operations, & Capital Strategy:
• Scale our accounting operations — close, controls, and systems — into a reliable, in-house-caliber function
• Establish financial controls, policies, and audit readiness
• Lead financial preparation - model, data room, narrative, and diligence
• Own investor and board relationships, reporting, and materials alongside the co-founders
• Own the cap table, scenario and dilution modeling, and capital planning
• Operations, People & Legal:
• Provide operational leadership across G&A — own or partner closely on People/HR and Legal as we scale
• Build the systems, processes, and team that let the company grow efficiently
• Serve as a strategic thought partner to the founders on company-wide operational decisions
