A profitable DTC pet brand selling on Shopify, Amazon and Chewy seeks a fractional CFO to own end-to-end finance operations roughly one to two days per week, covering cash flow, monthly close, payments, tax and credit facilities.
A profitable DTC pet brand, generating over $50M in annual revenue and targeting $100M+, needs a hands-on fractional CFO to own the full finance function. The role covers cash flow management, monthly close alongside a bookkeeper, subscription cohort forecasting, cash conversion cycle analysis, credit facility oversight and audit-ready controls. The successful candidate will work directly with the founder, delivering clear projections and actionable insights rather than raw numbers alone.
The brand sells across Shopify, Amazon and Chewy, operates as a fully remote lean team, and has recently launched a second brand. The CFO will also manage lender relationships, coordinate sales tax filings with the company's CPA, and maintain two-person payment approvals and monthly reconciliations across all accounts.
- Maintain a current 13-week cash flow forecast weekly and time supplier and purchase order payments to the plan
- Close the books monthly with the bookkeeper and review the P&L against budget with the CEO
- Run contractor pay, supplier and freight invoices, and affiliate payouts correctly and on time
- Project subscription cohorts and the cash conversion cycle, flagging deviations the week they appear
- Coordinate all sales tax and corporate tax filings accurately and on schedule with the external CPA
- Manage credit lines and asset-based lending facilities to ensure the next two quarters of purchase orders are funded
- Prior CFO or VP Finance experience at a DTC ecommerce brand with at least $30M in annual revenue
- Hands-on execution across 13-week cash flows, monthly closes with an external bookkeeper, and contractor and supplier payments
- Demonstrated ability to reconcile Shopify and Amazon payouts and understand metrics including nCPA, MER, LTV, COGS and inventory cash cycles
- Experience setting up or managing an inventory-backed or receivables-backed credit facility
- Sales tax experience working alongside a CPA, with strong payment controls and reconciliation practices
- Discreet and trustworthy with payroll, bank access and owner finances, and responsive when issues arise outside scheduled days
