Who Will You Report Into?

Hello, my name is Marc Stockman, co-founder, and CEO of Metabolic. We’ve reached the point of scale that requires us to insource our previously outsourced financial operations. We’re looking for a hands-on, get-things-done Controller who is energized at tackling that challenge and transforming our financial operations into a systematic machine. At some point, you’ve likely seen how NOT to do things… well, this is your opportunity to do things the right way out of the gate.

What’s unique about this opportunity is that you’ll be our internal financial leader until we hire a full-time CFO next year. That means you’ll have the opportunity to own strategic responsibilities that will develop your skills and wisdom more rapidly than otherwise. We’ll work closely together on the vision for a world class operational finance team, and I’ll help remove obstacles so you can deliver ASAP.

What’s the Team Environment Like?

We’ve gone to great lengths to set up an environment that will allow you to move quickly, avoid bottlenecks, and provides the tools you’ll need to do your job best, including:

  • IT – Our IT team is will support implementing workflow automations as your build-out internal systems and will integrate any necessary custom API integrations with 3rd party systems
  • Human Resources – HR will be at your side, partnering on payroll, headcount forecasts, and labor costs, leveraging Rippling, our new unified workforce platform, to streamline everything
  • Analytics – Our analytics team will connect all sources of financial data via PowerBI and Tableau to provide you a holistic picture of business performance, opportunities, and risk.
  • Senior Leaders – Our senior leaders will actively engage in building departmental budgets, outlining resource needs, and analyzing data to spot cost savings opportunities.
  • Executive Support – We'll be with you every step of the way, and your success is our success. You can expect us to be fully transparent and remove any barriers that stand in your way.

What’s the Ideal Candidate’s Background?

You’re extremely strong with technical accounting and value quality, precision, accuracy, and timeliness… yet you’re also energized by a hyper-growth, dynamic, and sometimes ambiguous environment. You’re steeped in all things DTC: e-commerce ops, inventory management, payment processing, supply chain and performance marketing. And you’ve mastered the core controller accountabilities including accounting, financial reporting, cash management/forecasting, treasury, audit and taxes. You spot inefficiencies quickly, drive necessary change and relentlessly pursue things to completion.

Just as importantly, you’re extremely into health, wellness, and/or fitness. You love experimenting with new habits, realize how important having an optimized daily routine is, and simply can’t get enough of this stuff. Perhaps you’ve had a health challenge that got you interested, or you’ve just always been highly passionate about health, wellness, and fitness. Either way, your eyes are lighting up at the possibility of aligning your personal passion with your professional superpower.

What Will You Be Working On?

  • Build a World-Class Financial Function – You'll architect all key financial/accounting functions, including building and managing a small team, timely monthly close SOP, audits, budgeting, financial reporting, developing and monitoring KPIs, cash flow management and forecasting, preparing financial analysis, technical accounting, developing and monitoring internal controls, and architecting our financial operations to handle rapid scale.
  • Daily Financial Functions – You’ll be hands-on with the day-to-day technical accounting and financial operations functions, ensuring everything runs smoothly and delivers on time and spec.
  • Deliver Efficiencies – You'll continually look for better ways to streamline, identify, and correct inefficiencies, ensuring things run faster, smoother, and more cost-effectively. You’ll work with our business leaders to prepare budgets, identify cost savings and improve efficiencies.
  • ERP Implementation – You’ll be involved in the selection, testing, and implementation of a new ERP as we transition away from QuickBooks.

What’s Our Culture Like?

We have a human-first culture that puts the needs of our team first. We combine dedicated time for deep work to deliver world-class performance with a standard set of rhythms that allow us to stay aligned, be transparent, and eliminate office politics. For example:

Who Are We and How Are We Different?

Our mission is simple: make living healthy easier than living unhealthy. We empower people to fix their own health with 4 key things that make us different than others in the health and wellness space:

  • Metabolism-First – After 11 years of trial-and-error with 500k+ people, we’ve found optimizing your metabolism delivers the results you want: feeling your best, looking your best, performing your best and living longer. Your metabolism is your inner compass for health, but most people don’t understand how to read it; once you do, it’ll tell you exactly what how to thrive.
  • Individualized-Approach – Paleo may work great for one person’s metabolism, Vegan for another, Keto for another, etc. Everyone’s different, so to achieve results that stick, those differences must be respected; if not, things will backfire. That’s why our approach is 100% customized to the individual – there is no perfect program to find, it must be built to support how that person’s unique metabolism works. This is where the usual one-size-fits-all solutions fail – they don’t respect our very real individual differences.
  • Integrated Ecosystem – It’s simply too hard to live healthy – lots of great individual solutions, but nothing is connected. We’re left to stitch everything together, which is confusing. We simplify with our integrated ecosystem of offerings you need to optimize your metabolism. We started with nutrition, then exercise, then supplements, then coaching and are constantly adding new elements
  • Unified Platform – Everything’s combined into our proprietary Metabolic Optimization System (MetabolicOS) that unites practitioner wisdom and scientific research with machine learning to deliver a truly customized experience that helps dial in your metabolism at any stage of life.

We started 11 years ago with no centralized brand by launching products and services to solve one consumer problem at a time. Each one has been marketed separately under different brands. Now we’re unifying them under our new brand Metabolic which will be supported by the launch of our flagship e-comm site in Q4:22 and our all-in-one digital subscription app in Q2:23, fueling our next leg of growth.

Requirements

  • 10 Years’ Accounting Experience – Technical accounting and GAAP fluency (licensed CPA), analytical and financial reporting skills balanced with sound business judgment, problem-solving skills, and team leadership
  • 5 Years' Financial Experience – Short- and long-term budgeting and forecasting, month and year-end closing process, working capital management, tax audits, and profitability analysis
  • Technical Proficiency – Expert-level technical abilities in Excel, QuickBooks, and MS Products, with hands-on experience in financial ERP Systems and other finance and accounting tools
  • Driven to Excellence – An ownership mentality with a relentless inner drive to excellence that other people who aren’t built that way find disturbingly intense :-)
  • Exceptional Communication Skills – A perceptive listener who quickly synthesizes info and can formulate a methodical action plan that can be clearly articulated verbally and in writing
  • Passion for Health, Fitness and Habits – An unquenchable thirst to improve your health and fitness with an intentional focus on constantly optimizing your daily habits and routines

Benefits

  • Health Care Plan (Medical, Dental & Vision)
  • Retirement Plan (Matching 401k)
  • Life Insurance (Basic, Voluntary & AD&D)
  • Unlimited Paid Time Off (Vacation, Sick & Public Holidays)
