Finance Manager (San Mateo)

On behalf of our client, a venture-backed startup operating at the intersection of real estate, decentralized governance, and financial technology, we are looking to hire a highly trusted, hands-on Finance Manager.

We are looking for someone who wants to take ownership, is driven, hungry and has a get-things-done mentality.

Our client is developing globally replicable, community-driven hubs supported by innovative internal financial systems. As they prepare for significant expansion, they are looking to hire a Finance Manager to streamline complex, multi-entity financial operations and support the next stage of growth.

• Operational Finance Mastery : Fully own and manage all transactional finance across six corporate entities (handling property ownership, operations, and technology). This includes managing multiple bank accounts, processing payments to vendors and the team, and ensuring zero missed deadlines.
• Process Streamlining & Automation : Identify and execute opportunities to automate up to 90% of current manual financial processes using AI, Excel, and other tools, turning a current bottleneck into a scalable system.
• Reporting & Compliance : Prepare timely and accurate financial statements and reports for investors. Directly manage communication and workflow with external tax advisors.
• Strategic Support : Assist the CEO with financial modeling, contract reading, and supporting the fundraise process, including managing investor relations for committed capital.
• Ecosystem Integration : Work with the founding team to support the Q1 launch of proprietary stablecoin and internal financial infrastructure, demonstrating enthusiasm for the crypto-native culture of the company.

What We're Looking For :

We are seeking a generalist who is defined by loyalty, diligence, pragmatism, and a keen eye for accuracy.
