VP of Financial Operations $200,000 USD/year Pay is set based on global value, not the local market.
Most roles = hourly rate x 40 hrs x 50 weeks
Description
This isn't FP&A as you know it. It's financial ops for builders.
At 2 Hour Learning, we're building a network of schools that operate differently. We move fast, make decisions daily, and need financial clarity that keeps pace. You won't be reporting on stale budgets or waiting on BI teams. You'll build the models, dashboards, and controls that give operators and executives the clarity they need to make confident decisions – daily. Your work powers everything from school launches to strategic pivots, and it needs to be fast, accurate, and trusted.
You'll own a live, AI-accelerated finance system. That means integrated P&L models for each school and vertical. Rolling 12–18 month forecasts that stay within 72 hours of reality. Dashboards that surface the two or three levers that really matter. You'll use AI tools like ChatGPT and Copilot to accelerate your analysis and eliminate bottlenecks. You're not building systems from scratch—you're using existing tools to get work done faster.
This isn't for operations managers who prefer structured hierarchies. It's for finance professionals who are frustrated with bureaucracy and slow processes. You use AI tools to work faster and want your models to drive execution instead of just explaining what happened. You won't be on the sidelines waiting for a green light. You'll be at the center of how we move.
What you will be doing
- Build and maintain dynamic 3-statement models for each school and vertical, tying enrollment, staffing, and CapEx into a cohesive forecast.
- Update rolling 12–18 month forecasts weekly using the latest data and scenario-test upside/downside risks.
- Deliver executive dashboards that run on live data, highlighting key levers and enabling daily, confident decision-making.
- Use AI tools to accelerate analysis, detect anomalies, track variances, and eliminate spreadsheet bottlenecks across finance operations.
- Write crisp memos that summarize financial risk, strategic options, and budget implications at a board-ready level, within 72 hours.
What you will NOT be doing
- Managing slow budget processes or producing reports no one reads — your forecasts evolve with the business in real time, and your work shows up in decisions within days.
- Policing cost centers or chasing down receipts — you'll focus on clarity and control, not bureaucracy.
- Waiting on BI teams — you build the tools, dashboards, and models yourself.
- Drowning in noise — your job is to surface the few insights that change the trajectory.
- Building automated systems from scratch — you'll use AI tools to accelerate your work, not engineer infrastructure.
