You will work directly with the COO and executive leadership team as the internal lead for financing, strategic finance initiatives, and investor engagement. When a financing process is live, you become the operational quarterback for the company. This role sits at the intersection of: Strategic Finance, Capital Markets, Corporate Development, Investor Communications, Executive Operations.
