Vice President, Finance

Maiden Home is growing a team of forward-thinking individuals who possess unique strengths and perspectives, an innate ability to inspire their colleagues, and an eagerness to reimagine the world of luxury furnishings.

We’re hiring a Vice President of Finance to build and lead Maiden Home’s Finance organization during this next phase of growth. This leader will report directly to the Founder & CEO, build a best-in-class Finance engine, and help drive high levels of financial decision-making across the company. This role is ideal for a leader who has a strong player-coach mentality. We’re looking for someone to be hands on in setting up proper financials, systems, and processes, and eventually hire a high-performing team to bring it to scale. Our ideal candidate has a deep understanding of the consumer goods sector and can balance luxury-level service with disciplined, profitable growth.
This is a unique opportunity to join a brand that is primed for its next stage of growth–with a proven competitive advantage in its ability to attract, motivate and retain top talent across a range of disciplines. At Maiden Home, you’ll find a workspace that encourages innovation, creative expression, and teamwork, and your experience will be shaped by your performance, contributions, and drive. 

This role is located at our New York headquarters, located in the TriBeCa design district, where we work together 5 days a week in office.

What You’ll Do:

• Translate strategic priorities into clear financial plans, targets, and operating metrics.
• Establish an executive operating cadence: weekly KPI reporting, monthly performance reviews, quarterly planning, and board/investor-ready materials (as needed).
• Serve as a thought partner to the CEO and leadership team on growth strategy, profitability, and capital allocation.

• Build and run a driver-based FP&A function across revenue, margin, opex, and cash.
• Develop monthly and weekly forecasting tied to demand signals (traffic, leads, conversion, AOV), capacity, lead times, and delivery performance.
• Create dashboards and insights that connect brand investments (marketing, showrooms, service) to outcomes (profitability, growth, NPS).

• Build cash forecasting and liquidity planning suited to a made-to-order model (customer deposits, production timing, vendor payment terms, WIP).
• Partner with Ops/Supply Chain to model capacity planning, lead times, and supplier constraints—connecting demand planning to production planning.
• Improve working capital through better forecasting, tighter deposit/WIP visibility, and vendor/production economics—without compromising service.

• Oversee the monthly, quarterly, and annual close process with accuracy and timeliness
• Maintain GAAP-compliant financial statements and ensure technical accounting is current
• Establish and enforce internal controls and financial policies
• Oversee and scale the full AP function, including vendor onboarding, invoice processing, and payment runs
• Oversight of expense management and employee reimbursement policies
• Manage vendor terms and negotiate payment terms to optimize working capital
• Oversee sales and use tax compliance across all states where the company has nexus
• Ensure accurate and timely filing of all tax returns (income, sales, property, payroll)
• Support tax planning and structuring strategies to minimize effective tax rate
• Stay current on tax law changes that affect the business (e.g., tariff impacts on imported goods)

• Over time, propose and upgrade finance systems and tooling as needed (ERP enhancements, planning tools, BI), ensuring a single source of truth.
• Define core data models and KPI definitions across the business (revenue, margin, lead time, on-time delivery, cancellations).

• Design, build and lead a high-performing finance organization.
• Provide leadership by setting clear priorities, providing regular feedback and coaching, and holding the standards for performance high.
• Address performance clearly and decisively, championing a culture of excellence over comfort.
• Coach leaders across the organization and raise the bar on financial rigo and business acumen.
