Employment Type: Full-time (flexible hours)
Reporting to: COO
Position Overview
We are looking for a strategic, action-oriented finance leader to strengthen forecasting, improve close and reporting, and enable better decision-making as Enuma (a Series B, venture-backed, mission-driven startup) continues to mature and scale thoughtfully.
The ideal candidate owns hands-on operational finance (FP&A, accounting, and reporting) and partners closely with leadership on strategic finance topics as needed. They bring a builder’s mindset, with a strong drive to improve systems and processes, implementing automation and AI-enabled tools where appropriate to increase speed, accuracy, and insight across the finance function.
What You Will Do
- Own budgeting, forecasting, runway planning, audit, tax, and reporting, producing decision-quality models and clear executive narratives.
- Provide financial insights and analysis to support decision-making across the organization. (e.g., HQ, local subsidiaries, functions, key project), aligning financial goals with business objectives.
- Strengthen core finance operations by implementing practical automation, including AI-enabled workflows, to improve speed, accuracy, and insight (e.g., variance analysis, anomaly detection, reporting)
- Lead and develop the accounting team, ensuring compliance with regulatory requirements and quality financial reporting to various stakeholders (i.e., internal, board, investors, auditors)
- Support board and investor-facing finance reporting, including materials preparation, and capital-related communications
- Partner with the CEO, COO, and Board to define long-term financial strategy and capital allocation priorities, supporting the company’s near- and long-term growth
- Support capital strategy and transaction readiness, including financing and potential strategic transactions (e.g., partnerships, M&A), and lead execution when pursued
Why This Role Is Compelling
- Meaningful impact on company strategy, financial discipline, and operating health.
- Opportunity to build a more efficient and modern global finance function, including AI-enabled workflows.
- Mission-driven product that improves learning outcomes at a global scale.
Job Requirements
- 5+ years of progressive experience in FP&A and operational finance, with clear ownership of closing, budgeting, runway management, and analysis. (Experience in multi-entity companies preferred; high-growth experience is a plus).
- Demonstrated ability to be hands-on and execution oriented: building financial models, digging into analyses, and improving processes using tools. (Experience with AI-enabled workflows is a plus.)
- Strong working knowledge of accounting fundamentals and financial reporting, with the ability to partner effectively with external accountants and auditors (US GAAP experience and multi-country exposure strongly preferred).
- Excellent communication and interpersonal skills in English and Korean, with the ability to work effectively across functions, cultures, and seniority levels.
- Proven experience leading high-performing teams.
- A strong alignment with Enuma’s mission, or a demonstrated interest in education/technology.
Competencies that are Valued at Enuma
- Independent, self-starter who takes the initiative to identify opportunities and quickly acts to deliver quality results
- Quick and avid learner who actively seeks to improve and develop
- Highly empathic problem solver who can anticipate and understand needs and enjoys finding optimal solutions that take into account constraints
- A team player who collaborates with others with professionalism and respect
