ABOUT US

HirexHire (pronounced hire by hire) is a Chicago-based recruiting and talent consultancy that integrates with companies short-term to provide long-term talent solutions. We take a seat in our client’s everyday operations to understand their people's goals, gaps, and challenges. We then develop and implement processes and technologies to execute a sustainable, scalable talent plan.

We partner with companies expecting or experiencing high growth who need to hire at scale or fill a critical role rapidly. Our clients are not looking for quick-fix placements but are thoughtfully building a hiring strategy to scale their businesses.

Location: Remote (US-based)

Industry: VC-backed SaaS

Company Size: 20-50

THE ROLE

Our client is seeking a strategic and hands-on Director of Finance to join its leadership team during an exciting stage of growth. This is a highly visible role with the opportunity to build and shape the company’s financial foundation from the ground up—serving as the primary owner of all finance-related functions. Reporting directly to the CEO, this individual will play a key role in driving financial strategy, leading forecasting and budgeting processes, establishing KPI reporting, and delivering insights that inform critical business decisions. As a trusted partner to leadership, the Director of Finance will have a meaningful voice in shaping the company’s direction while building scalable processes to support continued growth.

WHAT YOU WILL DO 

  • Collaborate with the CEO on annual and long-term business planning, budgeting, and operational analysis.

  • Drive annual financial planning and rolling forecasts with the executive team.

  • Provide financial support to department leaders, developing and managing models for accurate budgeting.

  • Spearhead monthly financial and KPI reporting, analyzing trends in revenue, expenses, and employee count.

  • Ensure data integrity among various sources, manage bookkeeping functions, and oversee audits.

  • Manage customer billing, payables, and vendor relationships, addressing past-due collections.

  • Lead the development of the finance department as our client’s company scales.

WHAT YOU WILL NEED

  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or related discipline

  • 6+ years of relevant finance and accounting experience, with a minimum of 2 years in FP&A specifically

  • Start-up experience in an early-stage B2B SaaS-based company

  • Excellent proficiency in financial theory, forecasting, and financial accounting

  • Data-driven with exceptional quantitative analysis skills, including advanced Excel modeling

  • Outstanding communication and interpersonal skills

  • Strong work ethic with an ability to focus on complex financial problems, with a strong attention to detail and commitment to accuracy

  • Excellent communication and interpersonal skills

  • Experience with QuickBooks, HubSpot, a plus
