Waltham, United States Solarea Bio, Inc Full time

About Us:

Solarea Bio is a commercial stage biotechnology company that has built a powerful platform using microbial discovery, genomics, and bioinformatics to rapidly deliver novel products that address chronic inflammatory conditions. The breakthrough came from the combined efforts of the company’s co-founders who established a link between an untapped source of bacteria and fungi derived from healthy foods, and their applications in inflammatory processes in the body, often with signaling or biochemical pathways originating in the gut. The first application aims to manage bone loss associated with menopause, weight, and age where diet alone is not sufficient to maintain a healthy skeleton, and natural solutions are desired. Solarea Bio's vision is to create and lead a new way to rapidly discover, develop, and launch commercial products aiding in the management of disorders where other solutions are not enough. This is a transformative opportunity to become part of a top-tier team driven by a common mission: enhancing lives through the discovery and distribution of revolutionary products firmly grounded in substantial scientific and clinical evidence.

Position Overview:

We are seeking a highly independent, experienced, motivated Controller to lead our accounting and finance department as we launch our first product to the market.

As a startup, there is great opportunity to grow beyond this role into more senior level management.

  • Budgeting and Forecasting: Develop and maintain the annual budget, monitor performance against budget, and provide detailed variance analysis to senior management.
  • Cash Flow Management: Monitor cash flow, optimize working capital, and prepare cash flow forecasts to ensure financial stability.
  • Internal Controls: Establish and maintain effective internal controls to safeguard company assets and ensure the integrity of financial reporting.
  • Audit Coordination: Liaise with external auditors and manage the annual audit process, ensuring all documentation and reports are prepared accurately.
  • Financial Analysis: Provide financial analysis and insights to support strategic decision-making
  • Compliance: Ensure compliance with tax regulations and reporting requirements, including preparation of tax returns and management of tax-related issues.
  • Risk Management: Identify and assess financial risks, develop risk mitigation strategies, and monitor compliance with risk management policies.
    • Actively seek opportunities to improve operations and implementing internal controls
