We’re looking for a Sr. Director of Finance to lead our global finance function, drive operational excellence, and scale our financial infrastructure to support rapid growth. This role requires a hands-on leader who thrives in high-volume transaction environments, ideally in both B2B2C and B2B businesses — and is equally comfortable with big-picture strategy and detailed execution.
You will oversee all aspects of finance for our U.S., Israel and international operations, manage a growing distributed team, and partner closely with leadership.

- Implement scalable systems and processes to support high-volume transactions and multi-currency operations.
- Ensure accurate and timely financial statements, cash flow management, and KPI tracking.
- Team Leadership
- Lead and develop a growing finance team, including Controller, Staff Accountant, FP&A and outsourced specialists in Israel.
- Foster a high-performance, approachable, and collaborative culture.
- Compliance & Controls
- Maintain compliance with U.S. GAAP, local regulations in Israel, and taxation requirements.
- Ensure strong internal controls and risk management practices.
- Growth Readiness
- Prepare financial infrastructure for future fundraising rounds.
- Support CEO and leadership with financial modeling, scenario planning, and board reporting.
What You Bring:

- Proven track record scaling finance functions in a fast-growth, global startup (Series B+ or later).
- Strong technical knowledge of accounting, FP&A, multinational and multi-entity operations.
- Hands-on leadership style — willing to dive into the details while guiding high-level strategy.
- Excellent communication skills and ability to work effectively with a distributed, multicultural team. Working under pressure, priority changes and getting stuff done on time mentality. Operate at the lowest level of details. Own every data point.
- CPA or equivalent qualification strongly preferred.
- Willingness to travel periodically between NY and Israel.
What We Offer:
- Strong & Competitive Compensation Package, Including Equity
