About the Role
This is a fractional CFO position with tem, a next-gen energy transactions company that is transforming how renewable energy is bought, sold and powered.
Who you are
- CFO (or equivalent) experience at a venture-backed scale-up, with Series B+ investment conversations and a leading role in at least one raise
- Hands-on capital strategy: equity story, investor relations, and non-equity or debt facilities
- International entity set-up, ideally US - comfortable owning the legal, tax, and banking workstreams
- ERP and financial systems ownership - you've built or fixed the information flow, not just consumed it
- Available 3 days a week for 6 months, able to start fast
- If you’re excited about this role but not sure you meet every requirement, we’d still love to hear from you. Your unique perspective could be exactly what we’re looking for
Desirable
- Complex commodity, energy, or regulated-market experience
- Risk management: structure, levers, and the story to investors
- AI-native finance team structuring - we have most of this covered; you'd sharpen it, not build it
- The credibility and appetite to lead a funding round personally
- Strong culture fit: direct, fast, low ego
- What the job involves
- We're hiring a Fractional CFO - an interim engagement, 6 months, 3 days a week
- This is senior cover with real ownership, not a caretaker seat.
For six months you own tem's finance outcome end to end - capital, expansion, infrastructure, and audit readiness - while our permanent CFO search continues
- We're upfront about that overlap: this engagement stands on its own terms, and we'd rather three brilliant days a week than five average ones
- Own capital strategy and the equity story, including non-equity facilities
- Stand up tem's US entity operationally
- Own pre-emptive funding readiness and in-bound investor relations, including tax and Big Four audit preparation
- You will report into the CEO
- Capital & funding readiness
- Own capital strategy and sharpen the equity story, including non-equity facilities
- Deal with pre-emptive funding and manage in-bound investor relations: data room, metrics narrative, investor-grade reporting
- Lead tax and Big Four audit preparation
- Expansion & growth
- Own the operational set-up of tem's US entity ahead of our Texas launch - legal, tax, banking, reporting
- Shape revenue strategy and platform growth for the third-party infrastructure model
- Finance infrastructure
- Own ERP integration and the flow of financial information to key stakeholders
- Plug into an AI-forward finance set-up - most of the team structuring is covered; you bring the judgement layer
- Leave the function cleaner than you found it: systems, processes, and reporting a permanent CFO can inherit on day one
- 6-month initial term, 3 days a week
