Vice President of Finance 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 is not traditional FP&A. This is finance operations built for operators.
At 2 Hour Learning, you will not spend time reviewing outdated budgets or depending on business intelligence teams. You will create the financial models, dashboards, and control systems that provide operators and executives with the precision they need to act decisively—every day. Your contributions will influence everything from new school openings to high-stakes strategic decisions, and they must be rapid, reliable, and actionable.
You will be responsible for a real-time, AI-enhanced finance infrastructure. This includes consolidated P&L models for every school and business line, rolling forecasts spanning 12–18 months that remain current within 72 hours, and executive dashboards that isolate the critical drivers of performance. You will construct this system using Klair, Syft, and Retool—without relying on engineering resources.
If you believe financial models should shape strategy rather than simply document it, this role is for you. You will not observe from a distance. You will be central to how decisions are made and executed.
What you will be doing
- Develop and maintain live 3-statement financial models for every school and vertical — integrating enrollment projections, staffing plans, and capital expenditures into a unified forecast framework.
- Refresh rolling 12–18 month forecasts on a weekly basis using current data, and conduct scenario analyses to assess upside and downside exposures.
- Create executive dashboards powered by real-time data — isolating critical levers and supporting confident, daily decision-making.
- Leverage AI and automation to identify irregularities, monitor variance trends, and remove spreadsheet dependencies across the finance function.
- Author concise financial memos that articulate risk, evaluate strategic alternatives, and clarify budget trade-offs — prepared to board standards within 72 hours.
What you will NOT be doing
- Managing a sluggish annual budget cycle — your forecasts will adapt continuously alongside the business.
- Enforcing cost-center rules or tracking expense receipts — you will prioritize insight and governance, not administrative process.
- Relying on business intelligence teams — you will design and deploy your own tools, dashboards, and models.
- Sifting through irrelevant detail — your responsibility is to surface the small number of insights that redirect outcomes.
- Creating reports that collect dust — your analysis will inform live decisions within days of delivery.
Key responsibilities
Provide continuously updated financial models, forecasts, and dashboards that enable daily decision-making and strategic precision across a fast-expanding portfolio of schools.
