Late Co-Founder & Chief Financial Officer (CFO) — Abracadabra+

Remote / Global | Europe–US overlap preferred

Initially Part-Time → Full-Time | Co-Founder Equity

Abracadabra+ is building a global AI-powered LGBTQ+ social and experiences platform around one simple idea:

Explore • Connect • Experience

We bring together social discovery, real-world experiences, services and community in one platform — creating new ways for people to connect, participate and earn.

Abracadabra+ is already live on iOS and Android, with thousands of users across 50+ countries, early recurring revenue, strategic partnerships and an international founding team.

We are now looking for a Late Co-Founder & Chief Financial Officer to join the core team and help build Abracadabra+ into a globally scalable, venture-backed company.

The opportunity

This is not a traditional CFO vacancy.

We are looking for someone who wants to join as a genuine late co-founder: someone who combines strong financial judgment with fundraising ability, commercial thinking and a willingness to build from an early stage.

You will work directly alongside the Founder & CEO and the wider co-founding team, taking ownership of the financial foundation of the company while playing an active role in fundraising, strategy and company building.

At this stage, we don't need someone who simply reports the numbers.

We need someone who helps create the company those numbers will eventually describe.

What you’ll own

Fundraising & Investor Relations

Work closely with the CEO on our pre-seed and subsequent fundraising rounds
Build and manage relationships with angels, family offices, venture funds and strategic investors
Own fundraising materials from the financial side, including models, forecasts, cap table scenarios and investor data
Support investor meetings, due diligence and closing processes
Help develop a long-term financing strategy for the company

Financial Strategy

Build and continuously evolve our financial model
Translate product and growth plans into financial scenarios and capital requirements
Own budgeting, forecasting, runway management and cash planning
Develop unit economics across subscriptions, services, experiences and future revenue streams
Help determine where and when we deploy capital as the platform scales

Finance & Governance

Build a robust finance function appropriate for a growing Delaware C-Corporation
Establish reporting, financial controls and management information
Coordinate accounting, tax, legal and compliance providers
Support corporate governance, board reporting and investor reporting
Maintain strong oversight of the cap table, equity issuances, SAFEs and future financing instruments

Company Building

Participate in major strategic and commercial decisions as part of the core leadership team
Help shape our financing, monetization and international expansion strategy
Challenge assumptions and bring financial discipline to product and growth decisions
Help build the finance organization as Abracadabra+ scales
Represent Abracadabra+ credibly with investors and external stakeholders

Who we’re looking for

You could come from venture-backed startups, investment banking, venture capital, private equity, corporate finance or a combination of these.

What matters most is that you can operate as a founder, not just an adviser.

Ideally, you have:

Significant experience in startup finance, corporate finance, fundraising or investment
Strong financial modelling and analytical skills
Experience with venture financing, cap tables, SAFEs and equity structures
A strong understanding of how early-stage technology companies are financed
The credibility to engage investors directly
Experience supporting or closing fundraising rounds
Strong commercial judgment beyond pure accounting
Comfort operating hands-on with limited infrastructure
An international mindset and the ability to work across Europe and the US

A strong investor network is highly valuable.

Previous founder, CFO, investment banking, VC, PE or transaction experience would be particularly relevant.

The kind of person who will thrive here

You are comfortable moving between a financial model, an investor conversation and a strategic founder discussion on the same day.

You don't wait for a finance department to exist — you build it.

You understand that early-stage companies require speed and pragmatism, while financial governance still needs to be taken seriously.

Most importantly, you want meaningful ownership of what you are building.

Co-Founder structure

This is a genuine late co-founder opportunity, structured primarily around meaningful founder equity and long-term value creation.

We also expect our late co-founders to have genuine skin in the game through a personal investment in the company, subject to mutual due diligence and final structuring.

This is about alignment and shared risk — not simply raising capital from the person joining.

The role can begin part-time and is intended to transition into a full-time salaried CFO position as institutional funding and recurring revenue allow sustainable executive compensation.

Why now?

Abracadabra+ has moved beyond the idea stage.

The product exists.

Users are joining.

Revenue has started.

The founding team is being built.

And our next phase is about turning that foundation into scale.

We believe the opportunity is significantly larger than another social app.

Our ambition is to build the global platform connecting the LGBTQ+ community with people, experiences, services and economic opportunities around them.

The CFO joining now will have the opportunity to help shape the company before institutional scale — rather than joining after all the important decisions have already been made.

Interested?

If you're looking for a conventional CFO position, this probably isn't it.

If you're interested in becoming an owner, building alongside other founders and helping finance the next stage of a global LGBTQ+ technology company, we'd like to hear from you.

Tell us briefly about your background, what you've built or financed, and why Abracadabra+ interests you.
