Head of Finance

Job Description

Job Description

We’re looking for a Head of Finance to build and scale Station A’s financial foundation while serving as a key strategic partner to leadership. You’ll be joining as our first in-house finance hire , which means you’ll be hands-on from day one, owning financial operations yourself while also shaping the long-term vision for how the function grows. This role is ideal for someone who has done it before —a guide who can meet us where we are, bring proven judgment, and enable the company to scale with confidence. We need someone with agency, curiosity, and the ability to define a vision and align others around it , while helping us avoid common pitfalls and maximize our impact.

About the role

The Head of Finance is both a builder and a strategic thought partner, responsible for scaling Station A’s financial infrastructure while serving as a key advisor on capital allocation, pricing strategy, and sustainable growth. As our first in-house finance hire, you’ll be hands-on in building the function from the ground up : if you don’t do it, no one will.

You’ll generate forward-looking insights that guide company priorities and tradeoffs, partner with the CEO and Head of Operations on strategic planning, forecasting, and scenario modeling, and anticipate risks and opportunities across our business model, market, and cost structure. At the same time, you’ll have the ability to execute and ensure plans translate into results, building confidence that the company can deliver on its goals.

This is also a board-facing role that owns investor reporting and ensures leadership and external stakeholders have clear, accurate visibility into company performance. Beyond keeping the business on track, you’ll bring new ideas and apply a strategic lens to how we deploy capital, ensuring we make the right bets that accelerate growth and impact. This role is critical in preparing us for Series B and beyond, with the systems and financial narrative to support our next stage of scale.

Who we are

Station A is a technology company reimagining how clean energy is bought and sold. Our distributed team is made up of climate-minded technologists, strategists, and operators committed to making climate action a no-brainer for everyone.

We combine proprietary software with industry expertise to guide commercial real estate owners and operators through their decarbonization journey, starting with evaluation of their portfolios and culminating in transactions through our clean energy marketplace.
