Director of Finance

Director Of FinanceFull-Time | Tempe, AZAbout BasataAt Basata, we're rethinking the way healthcare practices get work done. Our AI-powered tools help automate the repetitive, time-consuming tasks that bog teams down, so staff can spend less time on admin and more time with patients. We're a small, fast-moving team that loves building smart systems and simple, intuitive experiences. If you're someone who gets excited about early-stage energy, designing better ways to work, and fixing what's broken in healthcare, we'd love to connect.About The RoleBasata is bringing on a Head Of Finance to be the company's most senior strategic finance voice, reporting directly to the CEO. As we scale, the forward-looking work — the financial model, the board narrative, the case for what we invest in next — needs a full-time owner driving it end to end. This role is that seat. You'll own the FP&A model, budget, and scenario planning, build the KPI framework that guides how we allocate capital, and be a key voice in which bets we take to hit our financial goals. You'll also lead board reporting and investor relations, and get us investor-ready well before future funding rounds, by building the data room and diligence materials proactively.We're looking for someone who is strategic by default but just as comfortable getting into the weeds, who can lead up to the CEO and board as naturally as they lead across the teams whose work feeds their models, and who wants to build the finance function they lead rather than inherit one already built.What You'll DoOwn the company's financial model end to end — budget, multi-year forecast, and scenario planning — and keep it current enough to answer any "what if" the CEO or board asksBuild and maintain the KPI framework that tracks how the business is actually performing, and use it to inform capital allocation decisions in real timeBring proactive, data-backed recommendations on pricing, unit economics, and growth betsServe as a key voice in which bets the business takes to hit its financial goals, partnering closely with the CEO and leadership team on strategic tradeoffsOwn board reporting and investor relations: prepare and present the monthly/quarterly financial package and manage ongoing investor communicationBuild and manage the data room, diligence prep, and be the primary point of contact for investor and legal questions as we raise future fundingGet hands-on when it matters — build the model yourself, dig into the SaaS metrics, and partner across the org so the numbers reflect what's actually happening in the businessWhat We're Looking For7–10 years of finance experience, with a track record of taking on increasing ownership of FP&A or strategic finance at a venture-backed startupSaaS experience required; healthcare tech a plusHas personally run — not just supported — a raise and/or an audit before; understands what investor-grade diligence actually requiresTrack record owning board and investor reporting independently, not just assembling it for someone else to presentBachelor's degree in finance, accounting, or related field; CPA or MBA a plus, not requiredWho You AreCurious and analytical — you find the story in the numbers before anyone asks you toStrategic by default, but just as comfortable getting into the weeds and building the model yourself when the moment calls for itA generalist by instinct — not looking to stay narrowly in one lane of financeResourceful and self-directed; you build the process you need rather than waiting for one to existComfortable leading up and across the organization — as credible with the CEO and board as you are with the teams whose work feeds your modelsA clear, confident communicator who can carry a room with the board or the CEOWhy Join Basata?Drive real impact.
