Chief Financial Officer – US Remote


Growing digital media company is seeking a CFO to help shape its next chapter. This is not a traditional P&L-management role: it is about building the models and financial perspective that help leadership decide where to invest and how to grow.

  • Own annual planning: set budgets and targets, run forecasting, and update KPIs monthly
  • Build business/financial models for new revenue streams and long-term investments, including the indirect, multi-benefit economics typical of media
  • Take strategic direction from the CEO and turn it into clear scenarios and recommendations
  • Partner with business unit leaders as a trusted advisor
  • Support corporate development thinking suited to a capital-efficient company
  • Bring practical AI fluency to how finance and the business operate


What You'll Bring

  • 10+ years of experience in strategic finance or corporate development
  • Strong business/financial modeling skills
  • Experience in lean, high-growth, unstructured environments, ideally in the media space
  • A hands-on, scrappy style: this is an individual-contributor seat, both strategic and executional
  • A collaborative, service-oriented approach to working with the CEO, leadership team, and GMs
  • Fluency with AI


Details
