Monumental is automating on-site construction with cutting-edge robotics and software. Our mission is to redefine construction through software and robots. We aim for a future where beautiful, bespoke buildings are built within a single day with minimal labour.
We're a growing team (about 40 team members) of mostly engineers and technicians, coming from companies like Palantir, Qualcomm, Dyson, Shopify, Tesla, and Meta, that are looking to expand the operational part of our business. We're still in the first days of building the company, and this is a unique opportunity to be an early employee in a high-growth, high-ambition startup environment. From Day 1, you'll be able to work with an experienced founding team backed by top-tier investors.
You can read more on why we believe you should spend your time working on construction and learn more about our vision and company.
About You and This Role
You'll be our first Head of Finance and will start as a department on your own. You'll be responsible for everything from our day-to-day financial processes, up to our longer-term strategic planning and defining our key financial and operating metrics that we'll use to run the company and report up to our investors.
Monumental is a unique company in that we're solving the problem of on-site construction with a vertically-integrated offering. We're a hard tech company doing real R&D financed through venture funding, we manufacture our own hardware and manage our supply chain, and deploy our robots to construction projects, each with their own P&L. Reading this should ideally scare and excite you at the same time.
We're looking for someone who wants to join an early-stage hard tech startup with growing revenue and a real customer base and understands that they will get their hands dirty and won't have an entire team to do the actual day-to-day work. Over time, we expect you to grow fast with our company and lead and build out our finance function.
What You Might Be Working On
* You will help define our operating plan and fully own long-range planning, annual planning, quarterly forecasting, and monthly reporting.
* Define and own key financial and operational metrics-both company-wide and for key departments.
* Improve and own our accounting, invoice, and spend management systems, both in-house and working with third-party vendors.
* Model, propose, and execute on various strategic financing options as we continue to grow.
What We're Looking For
* At least 5 years of experience in relevant FP&A and strategic finance experience.
* You are comfortable operating at all levels: you have the ability to be hands-on and build your own models or deal with pressing accounting issues one day and work on a strategic long-range plan or investor deck another day.
* You're a great storyteller. You're able to explain why finance and our metrics matter internally and externally and craft compelling narratives.
* You deeply understand cash flow management and know how to reconcile the worlds of bookkeeping with financial models.
* A highly entrepreneurial roll up your sleeves mentality
* Excellent project management and data analysis skills. You know how to run a BI function or work directly with engineers to get the data you need.
* Bonus: any experience with supply chain and hardware products
