Job Description
Location: Bay Area, California (San Mateo)
Work Type: Hybrid (1-2 days per week)
Narvar is Hiring! We are looking for a tech-forward VP of Finance to serve as a strategic architect for our financial operations. This is a high-impact role designed for a self-starter who prefers running a lean, elite operation over managing a large team. You will be the right hand to our CFO, taking full ownership of our financial engine and preparing the organization for the next steps in our growth.
Core Responsibilities
- Strategic FP&A Ownership: Fully own forecasting, budgeting, and long-range modeling. Your goal is to provide the CFO with “push-button” visibility into the health of our SaaS, and transactional revenue, along with key financial and business metrics.
- M&A Strategy & Benchmarking: Drive financial due diligence and valuation for M&A activity. You will build and maintain the benchmarking frameworks we use to evaluate potential targets.
- Finance Systems & AI Transformation: This is not a maintenance role — you will be the architect of our next-generation finance stack. Lead the evaluation, selection, and implementation of modern FP&A tooling. Embed AI and automation across budgeting, forecasting, and close workflows to eliminate manual effort and improve decision velocity.
- Lean Financial Operations: Oversee the monthly close process with high integrity and speed. Set the standard for accuracy, cycle-time reduction, and process discipline across the finance function.
- Board-Level Narratives: Produce high-impact Board decks and financial presentations. You must be able to translate complex data into a clear, compelling story.
- The Connective Tissue: Partner daily with Rev Ops, Deal Desk, and Executives leadership to ensure financial alignment across the company.
What we’re looking for
- 10+ years of progressive finance leadership, with deep expertise in SaaS unit economics and revenue growth.
- Mastery of FP&A & Modeling: Proven ability to build complex, 3-statement models and long-range plans from scratch.
- M&A Track Record: Direct experience in the full M&A lifecycle, specifically in benchmarking targets and conducting financial due diligence.
- AI & Tech Forward: A track record of leveraging AI and automation to overhaul budgeting processes and streamline the monthly close.
- The “Player/Coach” DNA: A self-starter who thrives in agile environments and prefers scaling through technology and process over large headcounts.
- Strategic Partner: Exceptional communication skills with experience producing Board-level narratives and partnering with Executive stakeholders.
- Education: Bachelor’s in Finance, Accounting, or Economics; MBA or CPA preferred.
