About MAVIMAVI places experienced finance and accounting professionals into senior, high-ownership roles at high-growth US companies.We maintain a deliberately high bar on both sides of the placement. The companies we partner with are venture-backed and private equity-backed businesses building modern finance organizations, and the professionals we represent are operators with a track record of owning the numbers rather than supporting them from a distance.The roles we place are embedded positions within the finance function itself. Our professionals work alongside founders, CEOs, and senior leadership on the work that determines whether a business can close its books with confidence, satisfy its auditors, raise its next round, and scale.Our team has built and scaled finance functions at companies including Lyft, Ramp, and SoftBank.

A significant part of the role is translating financial information into clear recommendations that people outside finance can act on.Because you will be the most senior finance person in the company and located outside the United States, the role calls for someone who operates well with autonomy, communicates proactively rather than on request, and can hold both the detail and the strategic picture without a layer above them to catch what falls through.What You'll OwnAccounting and ControlsThe close.
