Vice President of Finance
Company: YoshiTech
Employment Type: Full-Time | Remote
Department: Finance & Corporate Management
Level: Vice President
Position Overview
YoshiTech is seeking an experienced Vice President of Finance to provide financial leadership, strengthen corporate financial management, and support the company's long-term business objectives.
This position requires a senior finance executive who understands how financial planning, capital allocation, cash flow management, and operational performance influence business growth and financial stability.
As companies expand their operations and evaluate new business opportunities, financial leadership becomes increasingly important. Managing growth requires more than preparing financial reports or maintaining budgets. It involves making informed decisions about investment priorities, financing requirements, profitability, and the financial risks associated with business expansion.
The Vice President of Finance will work closely with executive leadership to establish financial priorities, oversee financial planning activities, evaluate business performance, and provide recommendations that support responsible corporate decision-making.
The successful candidate will be expected to bring extensive experience in corporate finance, financial planning and analysis, financial reporting, capital management, and business performance evaluation.
We are particularly interested in candidates who have managed complex financial operations, worked with senior executive teams, and developed financial strategies that support sustainable profitability and organizational growth.
This role is intended for a finance leader who combines technical financial expertise with commercial judgment and understands how to translate financial information into practical business decisions.
Key Responsibilities
Provide executive leadership for corporate financial planning, financial management, and long-term financial strategy.
Work directly with executive leadership to establish financial objectives, capital allocation priorities, and financial performance expectations.

Oversee financial reporting processes and ensure that management receives accurate, timely, and meaningful financial information.
Evaluate corporate cash flow, liquidity requirements, working capital, and funding needs to support business operations and strategic initiatives.
Develop financial strategies designed to strengthen profitability, improve operating margins, and maintain responsible management of financial resources.
Review financial statements, operating results, budget variances, and financial performance indicators to identify risks and opportunities for improvement.
Partner with Operations, Procurement, and Business Development to evaluate operating expenses, supplier commitments, commercial investments, and business profitability.
Assess capital expenditure proposals, strategic investments, and business expansion opportunities through financial modeling and return-on-investment analysis.
Support executive decision-making involving financing structures, capital requirements, investment priorities, and long-term financial commitments.
Evaluate potential acquisitions, joint ventures, strategic partnerships, and corporate development opportunities from a financial perspective.
Establish and strengthen financial controls, budgeting procedures, financial reporting standards, and organizational accountability.
Coordinate with accounting professionals and external advisers to support accurate financial reporting, audit readiness, and compliance with applicable financial requirements.
Monitor financial risks involving liquidity, credit exposure, financing costs, market conditions, and significant commercial commitments.
Support negotiations with financial institutions, financing partners, vendors, and other stakeholders regarding financial arrangements and contractual obligations.
Develop financial models and scenario analyses to evaluate potential changes in revenue, operating costs, capital requirements, and business profitability.
Establish financial performance indicators and management reporting processes that support strategic and operational decision-making.
Provide financial guidance to department leaders and ensure that business initiatives are supported by realistic budgets and appropriate financial planning.
Prepare executive financial reviews, investment assessments, financial forecasts, and strategic recommendations for senior leadership.
Lead, mentor, and develop finance professionals while promoting financial discipline, professional accountability, and continuous improvement.
Qualifications

Demonstrated leadership experience managing finance teams and coordinating financial activities across multiple business functions.
Excellent executive communication, financial analysis, negotiation, organizational leadership, and problem-solving skills.

Ideal Candidate
You are an accomplished finance executive who understands that effective financial leadership requires more than technical accounting knowledge or financial reporting expertise.
Throughout your career, you have been responsible for financial planning, corporate performance, capital management, and decisions that influence an organization's long-term financial position.
You understand how to balance growth opportunities with financial discipline. Before recommending major investments or financial commitments, you evaluate funding requirements, projected returns, cash flow implications, and potential business risks.
You are comfortable reviewing complex financial statements, developing long-term financial forecasts, and presenting financial recommendations to senior executives.
You recognize that profitability and liquidity require different management considerations. A business can demonstrate strong revenue growth while still experiencing pressure on working capital or cash flow, and you know how to identify and address these challenges.
You have experience working with operational leaders to evaluate business costs, improve financial efficiency, and establish realistic financial performance expectations.
You understand how procurement commitments, operating expenses, technology investments, and commercial agreements affect corporate financial performance.
You bring sound judgment to capital allocation decisions and can distinguish between investments that support sustainable growth and expenditures that introduce unnecessary financial risk.
You are also an effective organizational leader. You can develop finance professionals, strengthen reporting practices, establish financial accountability, and create productive relationships across business functions.
You communicate financial information clearly and understand how to help non-financial executives make informed business decisions.
Your leadership approach combines analytical discipline with practical commercial awareness. You are comfortable challenging financial assumptions, recommending corrective actions, and supporting difficult decisions when necessary.
Most importantly, you understand that the finance function should serve as a strategic partner to the business.
