🚀 WHY JOIN OPENART

- Lead finance at a critical inflection point. You will help shape how OpenArt scales, invests, and finances its next stage of growth.

- Build the financial foundation for a category-defining company. You will develop the systems, discipline, and insights required to support rapid channel and global expansion.

- Work on high-impact strategic decisions. You will partner directly with the CEO, leadership team, board, and investors on company strategy, capital allocation, future financing, and strategic opportunities.

- High ownership, real impact. You will lead the finance function and play a central role in OpenArt’s most important decisions.

🎯 ABOUT THE ROLE

The VP of Finance will lead OpenArt’s finance organization through our next stage of growth. Reporting to the CEO and serving as a member of the leadership team, you will own financial strategy, FP&A, accounting, tax, treasury, financial operations, and board and investor reporting.

You will build a scalable finance function, give the company clear visibility into its performance and unit economics, and prepare OpenArt for future financing and potential strategic opportunities. You will be both a strategic partner and a hands-on operator - equally comfortable advising the CEO, reviewing an operating model, leading a financing process, and ensuring the accuracy of the company’s financial reporting.

The ideal candidate combines investment banking experience in TMT/SaaS with meaningful operating-finance leadership at a high-growth technology company. You are financially and technically sharp, deeply understand the business behind the numbers, and communicate complex financial issues with clarity and good judgment.
