About the role

Position: Finance Lead, FP&A (Contract)
Location: Remote, US-based | Contractor, about 10–15 hours a month to start, with a path to full-time
Hours: Flexible, with solid overlap with Pacific Time business hours
You’ll lead FP&A for a set of our client engagements, nonprofits and VC-backed startups, from end to end. You’ll build the models from scratch, run the monthly budget-vs-actual and cash forecasts, and get on calls with founders and CEOs to tell them what the numbers mean and what to do about it. It starts at about 10–15 hours a month as a contract engagement, and grows as we bring on more FP&A clients. Vanreusel Ventures provides fractional CFO, accounting, and strategic finance services to purpose-driven organizations across the US and internationally. Our FP&A practice is growing, and we need an experienced practitioner who can take ownership of client work right away. Who We’re Looking ForYou’ve spent years in FP&A and you’re the person clients and executives call when they need the numbers explained. You can walk into a messy set of books, understand the business holistically, and turn it into a model and a story a non-finance founder can act on. You’re comfortable juggling several clients at once and switching context without dropping anything. Ideally, you’ve worked with both nonprofit and for-profit organizations, and you’ve done fractional, consulting, or advisory work before.
What You’ll Do: Lead FP&A for Client Engagements Own the FP&A relationship for your clients: join their finance meetings, present results, and answer questions from CEOs, boards, and finance staff. Prepare monthly financial packages: budget-vs-actual reports with a clear narrative on variances, trends, and what they mean for the client. Build and update annual budgets and rolling forecasts with client department leads. Maintain 13-week and annual cash flow forecasts and flag runway or liquidity risks early. Step in on new FP&A clients as they come in, from scoping through the first model. Build Models and Analysis Build three-statement financial models, multi-year forecasts, and scenario cases (base, upside, downside) from scratch. Support fundraising and board work: use-of-funds tables, revenue and ARR projections, and investor and board slides. Run ad-hoc analysis such as unit economics, pricing, headcount planning, and grant or program budgets for nonprofits. Improve How We Deliver Standardize model and reporting templates so new clients onboard faster. Use AI and automation to cut time spent on data pulls and report preparation. Track your time accurately in Toggl and keep work organized. Culture & Values Champion Uphold and embody Vanreusel Ventures’ core values: Vision
  • Passion
  • Excellence
  • Candor
  • Trust
  • Adaptability
What You Bring 7+ years of FP&A, financial analysis, or financial modeling experience. This is a senior role. Client-facing experience and the ability to explain financial concepts to non-finance founders. You can explain a variance to a CEO in two sentences. Strong financial modeling, forecasting, and cash flow analysis skills, with three-statement models built from scratch in Excel or Google Sheets. Working knowledge of GAAP financial statements and experience pulling data from QuickBooks Online. Proactive and independent: you manage your own workload and client deadlines without close hand-holding. Comfortable managing multiple clients at once and context-switching. Excellent written and verbal English, and comfortable leading client conversations. Based in the US, with solid overlap with Pacific Time. Curious about AI tools and open to using them in your work.
Nice to Have: Prior fractional, consulting, or advisory experience. Experience with nonprofit budgeting (restricted funds, grants) and with VC-backed startups (ARR, burn, runway).Experience in both smaller and larger finance or consulting environments. NetSuite/Intacct/QBO experience; a CFA or master’s in finance.
What’s In It For You: Competitive hourly compensation as an independent contractor. Flexible, fully remote work with a team that values your expertise. A wide range of business models, from early-stage startups to established nonprofits. A path to more hours, a larger client portfolio, and a part-time or full-time role as our FP&A practice grows. Meaningful work with purpose-driven organizations making real-world impact. Ready to lead FP&A for organizations doing work that matters? Join us at Vanreusel Ventures. Reach out at

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
