Director of Finance

We have an exciting opportunity for a senior finance leader to join Travel Buggy as a key member of its leadership team. Reporting directly to the President, the Director of Finance will serve as the organization’s finance lead and a trusted operational partner, responsible for building systems, processes, and financial discipline required to support continued growth. This is a private equity-backed organization transitioning from an entrepreneurial foundation to a more structured and scalable operating environment.

The culture is professional, collaborative, and high performing and places strong emphasis on accountability, professionalism, a bias to action, and leaders who demonstrate strong internal drive and ownership.

The Director of Finance will play a critical role in strengthening financial rigor, reporting, and controls while supporting strategic decision-making across the business. The role will also oversee monthly reporting to the private equity sponsor, including variance analysis, and support quarterly board reporting and reforecasting.

We are looking for a highly independent leader who can operate with confidence and act as a reliable partner to the leadership team. The business is highly scalable with a small and growing team, and the finance leader will remain hands-on while also taking on broader operational responsibilities as the organization expands.
