Financial Controller (Fully Remote)

- Strategic Partnership : Serving as a trusted thought partner on key business decisions, from hiring and incentives to offer structures.
- Systems & Reporting : Creating simple, intuitive dashboards and operating metrics that provide company-wide clarity and alignment.
Requirements
The ideal candidate has a proven track record as a financial controller or operator in a fast-scaling business (ideally in the $5M-$25M / year range), with experience in high-ticket education, coaching, or SaaS being a strong plus.
