About MAVI
MAVI places experienced finance and accounting professionals into senior, high-ownership roles at high-growth US companies. We maintain a deliberately high bar on both sides of the placement.

Because you will be the most senior accounting person in the company and located outside the United States, the role calls for someone who operates well with autonomy, communicates proactively rather than on request, and holds both the
