Director of Business Operations

Finario • Full-time • Stamford, CT, US • 3w ago

The Company

Finario is a fast growing Software-as-a-Service technology company providing a suite of intelligent capital planning & portfolio strategy solutions to leading industrial enterprises worldwide.

The Role

This is a right-hand operator role for the founder of Finario. You'll be the only person running commercial finance, accounting, office operations and special projects — handling the day-to-day of the business so the founder can stay focused on customers, product, and growth.

If you've been the sole finance and operations person at a small services or technology company before and genuinely enjoyed the breadth and ownership, this is the role you've been looking for. If you want to build a finance department, manage a team of analysts, or work on capital raises and VC reporting, this isn't the role for you — and that's fine.

What You'll Actually DoDay-to-day, hands-on:

Run the books in QuickBooks Online yourself — A/P, A/R, journal entries, monthly close
Trigger and reconcile payroll (we use a PEO)
Manage cash, expenses, and vendor payments
Handle sales tax compliance and coordinate with our outside CPA on tax filings
Keep the office and business operations running smoothly
Produce monthly financial reporting for the founder

Periodically, with judgement:

Help structure pricing and contract terms on enterprise customer software deals
Lead vendor sourcing and renegotiation projects — insurance, software, services, banking
Take on whatever special projects come up: system selections, process improvements, ad hoc analysis

Who We're Looking For

Someone who's been the only finance/operations person at a smaller company and loved it
Hands-on accounting comfort — you actually use QuickBooks Online yourself rather than delegate it
Good commercial judgment — you've seen vendor contracts, pricing models, and customer agreements before
Detail-oriented but pragmatic about the 80/20 in a growing company
Comfortable being the only person in your function — not looking to manage a team
