Circle is building the modern community platform for every creator and brand in the world: think "Shopify for creator/brand-led communities". We make it really easy for creators and brands to bring their discussions, members, and content all into one place.
We’re looking for a Head of Finance to lead the Finance function at Circle through an exciting phase of growth and expansion.
Reporting to Circle’s CEO, you will be responsible for building and maintaining the company’s budgeting and operating model, accounting practices, reporting and controls, financial data and analytics, and compliance / tax processes.
This is a 100% remote role. We're now a fully remote team of 65 (and growing!) based in the U.S., Colombia, Portugal, India, Argentina, Slovenia, and other countries. We have a preference for candidates in U.S. and European time zones.
