About Burq

Burq started with an ambitious mission: to turn the complex process of offering delivery into a simple, turnkey solution. It’s a big mission, and now we want you to join us in making it even bigger. 🚀

We’re proud to be recognized as one of Fast Company’s Best Workplaces for Innovators and a 2025 Inc. Magazine Power Partner, awards that highlight how we’re redefining the future of logistics while empowering our partners to grow.

Backed by leading Silicon Valley investors like Village Global, the fund whose investors include Bill Gates, Jeff Bezos, Mark Zuckerberg, Reid Hoffman, and Sara Blakely, we’ve built a world-class team across the globe.

We operate at scale but remain small enough for every person to have a massive impact. There’s a lot of important work ahead, and joining Burq means the opportunity to grow faster than ever while doing the most meaningful work of your career.

Here’s a quick overview of what you will be doing:

The Role

We're looking for a VP of Finance to take Burq's finance and operations to the next level. We have a foundation in place — the systems, partners, and core operations that keep the business running. What we need now is a leader who can scale it into a strategic engine for the company: sharper planning, real financial rigor, and the operational muscle to support our next phase of growth.

This is not a role for someone who just manages the books. You'll be a true partner to the founders — owning how we plan, how we allocate capital, how we price and grow revenue, and how we run the company operationally. You're equally comfortable building the first model in a spreadsheet yourself and presenting it to the board: a builder, not just a manager. You'll bring a strong operational pulse across finance, revenue, and G&A, and you'll help us grow the entire business. High ownership, high leverage, direct line to every decision that matters.

What You'll Do

Financial Strategy & Planning

  • Own budgeting, forecasting, and a rolling financial model grounded in actual results
  • Deliver real-time visibility into burn, runway, and cash
  • Install capital-allocation discipline: clear ROI on every team, initiative, and investment
  • Produce board-grade financial reporting, analysis, and hygiene

Revenue Strategy & Operations

  • Own and shape our revenue strategy end to end — pricing, packaging, and monetization
  • Build the upsell and expansion motion
  • Model the unit economics and metrics that define a marketplace — take rate, contribution margin per delivery, gross margin, CAC:LTV, net revenue retention, and burn multiple
  • Partner with Go-to-Market on deal-level pricing for complex enterprise opportunities, and stand up revenue forecasting and operating rigor

Accounting, Financial Operations, & Capital Strategy

  • Scale our accounting operations — close, controls, and systems — into a reliable, in-house-caliber function
  • Establish financial controls, policies, and audit readiness
  • Lead financial preparation - model, data room, narrative, and diligence
  • Own investor and board relationships, reporting, and materials alongside the co-founders
  • Own the cap table, scenario and dilution modeling, and capital planning

Operations, People & Legal

  • Provide operational leadership across G&A — own or partner closely on People/HR and Legal as we scale
  • Build the systems, processes, and team that let the company grow efficiently
  • Serve as a strategic thought partner to the founders on company-wide operational decisions

Requirements

  • 10+ years across finance and operations with senior leadership experience — VP of Finance, Head of Finance & Operations, or CFO-track at a high-growth startup
  • A hands-on player-coach — you build the model, the forecast, and the board deck yourself before you have a team to delegate to, and you're comfortable in the details of the ledger
  • Has led or been central to growth fundraising — modeling, diligence, and investor/board management
  • Command of marketplace / usage-based accounting — gross-vs-net revenue treatment, revenue recognition, high-volume transaction reconciliation, and contractor/provider payouts
  • Built and scaled an FP&A function and matured finance operations into a rigorous, reliable engine
  • Strong command of unit economics and the metrics that define a marketplace — take rate, contribution margin, CAC:LTV, net revenue retention, burn multiple — plus revenue strategy (pricing, packaging, expansion)
  • Operational breadth — comfortable owning or partnering across HR, Legal, and broader G&A
  • Deep accounting fluency (CPA or equivalent experience a plus), with a track record of clean, timely closes and sound controls
  • A genuine strategic partner to founders who turns numbers into company-building decisions
  • Bonus: experience in logistics, delivery, supply chain, or another operations-heavy marketplace

Location

This is a fully remote role, open to candidates based in the United States and Canada, with a few in-person offsites throughout the year.

Benefits

Investing in you 🙏

  • Competitive salary, stock options, and performance-based bonuses
  • Fully remote
  • Comprehensive medical, vision, and dental insurance

At Burq, we value diversity. We are an equal opportunity employer: we do not discriminate on the basis of race, religion, color, national origin, gender, sexual orientation, age, marital status, veteran status, or disability status.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
