About This Role
Dear Future CFO of BostonSpeaks,
Let’s be clear from the start.
This is not a traditional CFO role.
BostonSpeaks is looking for a modern, heart\-centered Fractional CFO who enjoys being part of a team and wants to grow *with* the company
At BostonSpeaks, we help leaders overcome public speaking anxiety, and we bring that same depth, honesty, and humanity into how we work together.
We’re looking for someone who:
- Values human connection as much as performance
- Resonates with a culture of openness, self\-awareness, and growth
- Believes numbers should create clarity, confidence, and freedom — not fear
About the Role
You’ll act as a strategic financial partner to our leadership team as BostonSpeaks continues to grow. Your role is to bring clarity, structure, and stability in a way that feels supportive, human, and empowering.
You’ll enjoy this role if you:
- Love translating numbers into plain\-English decisions
- Are energized by small, purpose\-driven teams
- Use modern tools and systems and have opinions about them
- Are comfortable challenging leadership with clarity and kindness
- Enjoy teaching leaders how to think financially, not just reporting numbers
- Want to lead and shape the finance function as the company evolves
What You’ll Focus On
- Cash flow, forecasting, and financial visibility
- Budgets aligned with company goals
- Scalable systems and automations (QuickBooks, Wise, Monday)
- Clear, simple financial processes that support sustainable growth
Culture \& Fit
Culture is not a side note at BostonSpeaks, it’s the foundation.
You’ll feel at home here if you:
- Believe growth starts from within and are willing to question your own assumptions
- Value authentic communication and real conversations
- Care deeply about the quality of the work *and* how it feels to do it
- Believe finance can be both structured and heart\-centered
