Fractional CFO (Chief Financial Officer)

FutureSight

3d • Hybrid

About The Position

FutureSight Ventures is a venture studio that co-founds and invests in B2B AI software companies. We sit at the intersection of fund management and venture creation: we run a fund with LPs, we incubate and incorporate new ventures, and we provide ongoing financial, operational, and strategic support to the companies in our portfolio. We are hiring a Chief Financial Officer to own the financial spine of the firm, the fund, the management company, and the venture-facing work that makes our model distinctive. This is a hands-on, broad-scope CFO role. You will lead fund accounting and LP reporting, drive corporate and tax compliance, manage treasury and insurance, and partner closely with the investment team on capital formation, spin-outs, cap table mechanics, follow-on financings, and equity issuance. You will oversee a small finance and accounting team — including our bookkeeper, our accountant, and external partners — and be the firm's senior financial voice with LPs, ventures, and outside counsel. The right person is comfortable moving between high-stakes deal work, negotiating an investment agreement and leading a disciplined operating cadence.

Requirements

• 8+ years in finance leadership roles.
• Meaningful exposure to venture capital, venture studio, or private equity environments.
• Ideally direct experience with both fund-level and operating-company finance.
• Comfort negotiating investment and spin-out documents alongside counsel.
• Understanding of the mechanics of SAFEs, priced rounds, option pools, 409A, and cap tables.
• Fluency with fund mechanics, NAV, capital calls/distributions, waterfall, and LP-grade quarterly reporting.
• Ability to drive corporate compliance, sales tax, and annual tax filings across multiple entities.
• Experience managing outside tax and legal advisors.
• Experience managing a small finance and accounting team and external partners.
• Comfortable with ambiguity, white space, and a portfolio of work that ranges from strategic to in-the-weeds.
• CPA required.

Nice To Haves

• MBA, CFA, or JD/tax background a plus but not required.
