Head of Real Estate Finance (Treasury)

About Occuspace
Occuspace is building the data layer for commercial real estate. Our plug-in sensors deliver real-time, privacy-first occupancy intelligence - 97% accurate, no cameras, no PII - across more than 40 million square feet for 100+ organizations including Stanford, the GSA, and UCLA. As we scale toward our next phase, we are hiring our first dedicated finance leader to build the financial and operational backbone of the company. The Director of Finance is a builder seat - finance first, with real operational ownership and a small but meaningful people ops component.

You will be Occuspace's hands-on finance leader, owning the day-to-day financial engine while serving as a strategic partner to the CEO and executive team.

You'll be expected to operate in the details, build scalable systems and processes, and turn financial and operational data into better decisions.
70% Finance - accounting, bookkeeping, AR/AP, FP&A, board and investor reporting
~20% Operations - payroll, RevOps, systems, vendors and insurance, and lightweight controls
~10% People Ops / HR - onboarding, benefits, HRIS, headcount and compensation administration
You'll be equally comfortable overseeing the closing the books, building a forecast, tightening the quote-to-cash process, running payroll, and presenting unit economics to the board.

Over time, you'll help scale the function and the team beneath you. Accounting & Bookkeeping
Own the books end to end - maintain the general ledger, run an accurate and timely monthly close, and keep clean, audit-ready records. Accounts payable - manage vendor bills, approvals, payment runs, and vendor relationships. Accounts receivable - own customer invoicing, collections, and revenue recognition across hardware and SaaS contracts. Treasury & cash - manage banking, cash positioning, and reconciliations while monitoring burn and runway.

Budgeting & forecasting - build and maintain the company budget, rolling forecast, and financial model. Board & investor reporting - prepare board materials, investor updates, KPI reporting, and financial analyses. KPIs & unit economics - track the metrics that drive enterprise value, including ARR, growth, GRR/NRR, CAC, payback, LTV/CAC, gross margin, burn multiple, and Rule of 40.

Data into insight - create a reliable source of truth for financial and operating data, giving leadership early visibility into trends, risks, and opportunities. Operations
Payroll - own accurate, on-time payroll and related filings in partnership with the company's payroll provider/PEO. RevOps - own the quote-to-cash process, billing accuracy, and sales-to-finance handoff; partner with GTM on pipeline, bookings, and renewal forecasting. Systems & tooling - select and administer the finance and operational stack, including accounting, billing, expense, payroll, and FP&A systems.

Vendors, contracts & insurance - manage key vendor relationships, review commercial terms, and maintain appropriate insurance coverage. External partners - manage relationships with CPA/tax firms, auditors, and other financial partners. People Operations
HR operations - own people-ops administration: onboarding/offboarding, benefits administration, PTO, and HRIS upkeep. Compensation & headcount - maintain the headcount plan and partner with leadership on compensation, offers, and incentive structures.

Compliance basics - keep employment, benefits, and tax filings current; Note: heavy regulatory/SOX-style compliance is not the focus of this role.)
7+ years in finance and/or accounting, including hands-on ownership of full-cycle accounting and FP&A; Proven ability to operate as a one-person finance function - comfortable moving between detailed bookkeeping and executive-level strategy.
~ Strong command of SaaS and/or hardware finance, including revenue recognition, unit economics, gross margin, and recurring-revenue metrics.
~ Advanced financial modeling skills and a high bar for clean, trustworthy data.
~ Experience with modern finance tooling (e.g., QuickBooks/NetSuite, billing systems, expense and payroll platforms) and a willingness to implement and improve them.
~ Excellent communication skills - you make finance a shared language and help non-finance leaders understand and influence their numbers.
~ Bachelor's degree in finance, accounting, economics, or a related field; CPA, MBA, or prior FP&A/controller experience is a plus.
~ Comfort with ambiguity, an ownership mentality, and a bias toward building.
