Director of Finance & Strategy

Company Overview

Shot Vet has built a nationwide, accessible pet health infrastructure in one of the most resilient and underpenetrated sectors in America. We are transforming how preventive pet care is delivered by combining strong unit economics, operational precision, and mission-driven impact into a scalable, data‑driven organization.

We are entering a pivotal stage of growth poised to grow toward $100 million. This phase requires deliberate design, disciplined execution, and strategic thinking. The next chapter demands financial leadership capable of architecting infrastructure that supports sustained, intelligent expansion.

We are hiring a Director of Finance and Strategy who wants to optimize our growth models, KPIs, and GMs, not simply manage reporting.

Director of Finance & Strategy

This is a senior leadership role reporting directly to the CEO in a flat, high‑growth organization. There are few layers to manage and little distance from execution. You will be expected to build, analyze, decide, and then work directly with operations, business development, and recruiting to drive results.

You will strengthen and scale a finance function that already supports a proven, high‑performing operating business. The work is hands‑on. The standards are high. The pace is real.

This role blends financial architecture with operational ownership. You will design forecasting frameworks, sharpen capital discipline, and elevate reporting rigor while ensuring those insights translate into action across the company.

If you prefer directing from a distance, this role will feel uncomfortable. If you want to shape a scaling enterprise, influence real decisions, and grow into enterprise‑level leadership where everyone pulls their weight as the company scales, this is that opportunity.
