Director of Finance

The Role

We're hiring a Director of Finance, our first finance hire, to own Prosper's numbers end to end: planning, metrics, reporting, and the finance operations underneath them.

Think of it as building a function rather than filling a seat. You'll own both sides of finance: the strategic side (planning, metrics, reporting) and the operational side (accounting, monthly close, payroll and taxes), run with an outsourced partner you manage.

Prosper is at an inflection point. Revenue is up 5x in the last year, and finance has to scale with it. It's early enough that the finance playbook is yours to write, and consequential enough that writing it well changes the trajectory of the company.

If you've spent years building models and advising on other companies' numbers, this is the version where you own the plan, run the function, and see the business move.

What We're Looking For

• 4-6 years of experience, ideally starting in investment banking and followed by finance at a high-growth startup.

• Rigor as a core competency. People trust your numbers because they never have to check them twice

• Builder mentality. You're comfortable being the only finance person at first and getting deep into the details of a close, and just as comfortable stepping back to tell the founders what the numbers mean.

Bonus Points

• Healthcare or health tech exposure, at a company or covering the sector in banking

• Hands-on with modern finance tools like Brex, Carta, NetSuite or QuickBooks

• You've supported a fundraise, a first audit, or a finance system rollout

• You've managed an outsourced accounting firm and held it to a high bar
