Job Description
VP of Finance leading the finance function at Jasper AI marketing platform. Provides strategic financial partnership to CEO and executive team in a remote-first environment.
Responsibilities:
- Serve as a strategic partner to the CEO and executive team, providing financial leadership that actively shapes company direction, resource allocation, and growth priorities
- Translate the CEO's vision and strategic priorities into actionable financial and operating models that drive alignment across the business
- Lead strategic planning, scenario analysis, and investment evaluation to support agile decision-making in a fast-moving AI market
- Partner deeply with cross-functional executives on priorities, trade-offs, and performance accountability — earning trust as a go-to business partner, not just a finance function
- Collaborate with Product and GTM leaders to shape pricing strategy, deal structuring, and monetization initiatives
- Support Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success with financial targets, unit economics analysis, performance tracking, and KPI reviews
- Bring financial rigor to commercial decisions without slowing the business
- Prepare and present board and investor materials that frame financial performance within the broader business narrative and strategic context
- Support fundraising processes and due diligence as a key contributor; manage investor communications alongside the CEO
- Own the full finance function end-to-end — FP&A, accounting, strategic finance, and financial operations
- Lead annual budgeting, quarterly forecasting, and long-range planning, building and maintaining SaaS financial models
- Oversee all accounting operations, ensuring GAAP compliance, timely and accurate monthly close, and strong internal controls
- Manage and optimize financial systems and infrastructure (including NetSuite) to support scale and efficiency
- Define, track, and communicate core SaaS metrics — ARR, NRR, churn, gross margin, cash flow, and LTV/CAC
- Build, mentor, and develop a high-performing finance team; establish scalable processes that balance rigor with the speed a startup demands
Requirements:
- 12+ years of progressive experience across finance, FP&A, accounting, or financial operations, with meaningful time in high-growth B2B SaaS environments
- Prior experience as a VP Finance, Senior Director of Finance, or equivalent — having owned or significantly shaped the finance function at a growth-stage technology company
- Demonstrated ability to operate as a strategic business partner, not just a finance operator — with a track record of influencing decisions beyond the finance function
- Strong foundation across FP&A and accounting with the ability to operate across the full finance stack
- Experience supporting board reporting, investor communications, and fundraising processes
- Hands-on experience with M&A – including target evaluation, financial due diligence, deal modeling, and post-acquisition integration planning
- Advanced financial modeling, forecasting, and analytical skills; deep Excel expertise
- Hands-on experience with NetSuite and modern finance tools
- Solid understanding of GAAP, SaaS business models, subscription/usage-based revenue, and key operating metrics
- Proven ability to communicate complex financial insights clearly and persuasively to executives, board members, and cross-functional partners
- Demonstrated success building, mentoring, and scaling high-performing finance teams
- High degree of ownership, a bias toward action, and comfort operating in ambiguity
- Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, or related field required; MBA or CPA preferred
Benefits:
- Comprehensive Health, Dental, and Vision coverage beginning on the first day for employees and their families
- 401(k) program with up to 2% company matching
