About this role
Graphite Financial is a growing boutique finance, accounting, tax, and strategy firm (www.graphitefinancial.com) built to help startup and high-growth companies scale efficiently and sustainably. Graphite Financial is redefining the “finance department” for early-stage companies and VC-backed startups.
We deliver high-caliber accounting and finance leadership and support to entrepreneurs and management teams building scalable, high-growth companies. Our clients are actively managing cash burn, measuring performance, reporting to investors, making capital allocation decisions, and preparing for fundraising. All of that takes expertise and time that founders don’t have and can’t afford to hire for.
Graphite bridges the gap with flexible, fixed-fee support packages that provide fractional leadership and operational support from CFOs, Controllers, FP&A Managers, and Tax leaders. Account Executive (Accounting & Finance Services), Remote Graphite Financial helps startups build and scale with confidence through world-class accounting, finance, and tax services.
We act as a full finance team for high-growth companies — fractional CFOs, accountants, and analysts who help founders focus on building while we handle the numbers.
We’re looking for an Account Executive who knows the accounting and finance world — someone who’s sold professional services (accounting, bookkeeping, CFO advisory, or similar) and can connect with founders, controllers, and finance leaders in their language.
About the Role You’ll be the first point of contact for prospective clients and will manage the full sales process from first conversation to signed engagement. You’ll also help identify opportunities to expand existing relationships — ensuring clients continue to grow with Graphite as their needs evolve.
Working closely with our Growth, Finance, and Accounting teams, you’ll scope projects, align client needs with our service model, and help drive sustainable firm growth. Key Responsibiliti
