Job Description
Part-time Head of Finance for SuperSummary, an AI-powered literature and study-guide platform. Leading FP&A, subscription metrics, accounting, and financial systems.
Responsibilities:
- Build and maintain the annual budget and rolling revenue forecasts, translating business strategy into financial models
- Conduct monthly and quarterly variance analysis and surface insights that drive action
- Track and report SaaS metrics including MRR/ARR, churn, LTV, CAC, payback period, and net dollar retention
- Prepare leadership financial reporting and dashboards
- Run monthly scenario modeling to support investment and cost decisions
- Attend leadership meetings and serve as the financial voice in operational decisions
- Partner with the VP of Operations on forecasts, models, and resource plans
- Partner with department heads on budget reviews, spend tracking, and resource allocation
- Provide ad-hoc financial analysis and coach non-finance stakeholders
- Support strategic initiatives and long-range planning
- Own the monthly close process and ensure accurate financial statements
- Manage revenue recognition under ASC 606 / IFRS 15, including deferred revenue, chargebacks, cancellations, and prior-period adjustments
- Oversee ChargeBee and Stripe billing operations and subscription data flows into the general ledger
- Manage the bookkeeper and oversee bookkeeping, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and general ledger activity
- Maintain audit-readiness and coordinate with external tax advisors
- Build and document internal controls
- Evaluate financial tools and workflows and identify automation opportunities, including AI-assisted reconciliation and reporting
- Create runbooks and documentation for repeatable finance processes
Requirements:
- 8+ years of progressive finance and accounting experience, with meaningful time at a SaaS or subscription-based business
- Hands-on FP&A depth: budgeting, forecasting, variance analysis, and financial modeling are your core toolkit — you build driver-based models and rolling forecasts from scratch, not just tweak templates
- A track record of turning numbers into decisions: scenario modeling, leadership reporting, and partnering with non-finance leaders on operating and investment choices
- Fluency in SaaS/subscription metrics — MRR/ARR, churn, LTV, CAC, payback, and net dollar retention — and the consumer subscription economics behind them
- Controller-level accounting foundation: you’ve owned or closely overseen monthly close and revenue recognition (ASC 606 or IFRS 15), so you can run the accounting function, not just analyze its output
- Proficiency with subscription billing platforms (ChargeBee, Stripe, Recurly, or similar) and accounting software (QuickBooks)
- Experience with consumer or self-serve subscription models (high-volume, low-ACV)
- Experience working at a startup or high-growth company under $25M in revenue, where you wore multiple hats and operated as a generalist
- Strong English communication skills — you can present financial insights clearly to non-finance stakeholders and hold your own in leadership meetings
- A collaborative, confident communicator who thrives in a fully remote environment — you seek out cross-functional partnership rather than waiting for requests to come to you
- CPA, CMA, or equivalent professional certification, direct experience with ChargeBee, and comfort leveraging AI tools for financial analysis are all strong pluses
Benefits:
- Work with a distributed, global team in Latin America, Europe, and the US that has been remote-first since 2018
- Competitive salary
- Flexible work schedule
