Description

• Remote: Australian (AEST timezone) or New Zealand
• Lead finance for a scaling B2B SaaS business heading into its next capital phase
• Executive team seat. Report to the CEO, answer to the Board

CartonCloud builds warehouse and transport management software for third-party logistics providers. More than 600 customers across Australia, New Zealand and North America run their operations on our platform. We are remote-first, and we have grown from one warehouse’s problem into software that changes how an industry works.

The Opportunity

This is a new role on our Executive Team, created to support the growth and evolution of our finance function. We now run entities in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and the United States, and a Board that takes a close interest in the numbers. The next phase needs a finance leader who owns both the forward view and the foundations underneath it.

You will own strategic finance: financial planning and analysis, the group model, the SaaS metrics suite, scenario and downside planning, treasury and financing strategy, investor-grade reporting and data-room readiness. You will bring the economics to commercial decisions with our CEO and sales leaders: unit economics, cost to serve, and the modelling behind pricing and deal calls.

You will also own controllership. Our Financial Controller is on extended leave for much of your first year, so month-end close, statutory reporting, external audit and multi-jurisdiction tax sit with you directly during that period. This is a working leadership role in a small team. If you want to set direction and never look at a reconciliation again, this is not the role. If you want the scope of a finance leader in a business still small enough that you know where every number comes from, it is.

We are actively building AI and automation into how the business runs. You will lead the finance technology stack and the automation agenda, scaling the function through better systems rather than headcount. For the right person there is a clear path to broaden into investor relations and capital strategy, M&A and diligence, and a CFO title.
