MGT is the first AI-driven, neo-insurer focused on evolving commercial P&C insurance for the brokers and small business owners. By combining the expertise of industry veterans with state-of-the-art technology, we are ushering in the next evolution of commercial insurance and working to move the industry forward through the use of modern technology, better processes, and a rock-star team. We seek visionary leaders who thrive in dynamic, entrepreneurial settings, and excel in autonomous roles.
The Role
We’re hiring a VP of Finance to build and lead our finance and accounting function as we scale. You will own financial strategy, planning, and operations and play a key role in long-term capital management and M&A. You’ll partner closely across the business, including business development, insurance, operations, people, and engineering leadership. This is a player-coach role for a hands-on executive who balances strategic leadership with operational execution in a fast-paced, high-impact environment.
What You'll Do
In this role, you will be responsible for both setting financial direction and ensuring disciplined execution as the company scales. Responsibilities include:
- Partner with the Co-CEOs on company strategy, capital allocation, and long-term financial planning
- Define and execute financial goals across P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow performance; lead the long-range plan, annual budgeting, and monthly forecasting processes.
- Establish and maintain strong relationships with senior executives to ensure alignment of financial and operational strategies
- Analyze financial results, provide insights, and recommend actions to improve performance; shape and inform strategic decisions related to unit economics, market expansion, and capital allocation.
- Build and initially operate key financial infrastructure, while designing and implementing scalable systems, controls, and processes to support significant revenue growth over the next 2 years.
- Lead Board-level financial reporting and investor communications, owning MGT’s financial narrative
- Oversee capital structure and funding strategies
- Lead, develop, and mentor the Finance and Accounting team as the organization scales.
- Manage relationships with external partners, including auditors, advisors, and financial institutions
Who You Are
You thrive in demanding, high-ownership environments and are comfortable balancing hands-on execution with executive-level leadership in a startup setting. You are energized by building from the ground up and navigating periods of intensity and ambiguity. Job Requirements include:
- Proven experience in senior finance leadership roles with scope and responsibility comparable to a VP or Head of Finance
- Deep experience in FP&A and strategic finance, ideally in high-growth environments with comparable scale and complexity (e.g., $50M–$500M in revenue)
- Demonstrated experience building finance teams and functions from the ground up, including hiring, systems implementation, and process design
- Experience in balance sheet businesses, insurtech, fintech, or other highly regulated industries is helpful but not required
