Vice President Finance

Join Bastion, a fast-paced startup, as the Vice President of Finance. In this hands-on leadership role, you will build scalable finance systems, processes, and infrastructure. You will own the numbers end to end, from month-end close to regulatory filings to financial models. You will report to the COO and be expected to contribute from your first week and be fully productive by your third month. The role requires a strong background in accounting and financial reporting, with experience in highly regulated industries being a bonus.

• Construire des systèmes, des processus et une infrastructure financière évolutifs pour l'entreprise.
• Assumer la responsabilité des chiffres de l'entreprise, de la clôture de fin de mois aux dépôts réglementaires.
• Diriger le processus de clôture de fin de mois, améliorer l'exactitude et réduire le temps de cycle.
• You need to be someone who has lived inside the details of accounting and financial reporting, and who can also zoom out to drive strategic financial planning, build FP&A capabilities, and partner with leadership on decisions that shape the business
• The ideal candidate comes from a controller or senior accounting background with meaningful exposure to strategic finance—someone who's equally comfortable reviewing journal entries, building customer-level P&Ls and pricing models, and presenting financial analysis to the board
• Experience in highly regulated industries (financial services in particular) is a strong bonus
• Bastion operates under a NYDFS trust charter, which means the finance function carries specific regulatory reporting obligations — but what matters most is the foundation: technical accounting depth, controls discipline, and the judgment to operate in a regulated environment
