## Description

### **About Flexion**

At Flexion, we're building the intelligence layer powering the next generation of humanoid robots. Our mission is to accelerate the transition from fragile prototypes to real-world humanoid deployment. We are founded by leading scientists in robot reinforcement learning (ex-Nvidia, ex-ETH Zürich), and backed by leading international VC firms. In just months, we’ve gone from our first line of code to deploying real humanoid capabilities.

### **The role**

As our Finance Lead, you'll own the financial backbone of a fast-scaling robotics company. Reporting to our Head of Global Operations, you'll lead FP&A across our global entities and build the models, reporting and financial controls to enable strategic decisions.  

This is a hands-on, high-ownership individual contributor role where you will drive monthly close, cash-flow forecasting, audits, and more!

### Key responsibilities

-   Lead global financial planning, budgeting and forecasting processes to align with  company strategic goals at a SaaS start up
-   Establish and maintain strong global financial controls and ensure compliance with relevant regulations and standards to optimize performance and mitigate risks
-   You’ve been on a finance team that has led an early stage startup through fundraising and scale.
-   Develop and maintain complex financial models to support decision-making processes
-   Analyze financial data, including profit and cost analyses, and create reports for leadership in support of improvements or strategic changes 
-   Establish and maintain end-to-end procurement processes with accountability for 3rd party vendor/ tool selection, vendor onboarding, invoice payment, vendor management and vendor offboarding
-   Oversee the global finance and accounting practices and processes to ensure accurate and timely financial reporting and compliance with global accounting standards
-   Implement scalable processes and tools for budget management and reporting

-   Strong financial modelling and analysis skills. You can build driver-based models from scratch and are highly proficient in Excel and Google Sheets.
-   A solid grasp of Swiss accounting, tax and payroll requirements, and comfort operating across multiple entities and currencies.
-   A builder's mindset. You've set up or improved finance processes and systems, and you thrive with ambiguity and ownership in a fast-moving environment.
