The opportunity:

Thrive on change and grow beyond limits? We are looking for a bold thinker who sees a chance to learn and define what's possible with every challenge! Ready to make an impact? Welcome to Maropost where you can turn ideas into action!


This is not a traditional family office hire. We're looking for a sharp, operationally minded finance leader — someone with the instincts of a VP of Finance or Head of FP&A who thrives when given autonomy and a broad mandate. You'll be the single point of accountability for all things financial at Cartero, running the day-to-day so the CEO doesn't have to. The right person is a self-starter who doesn't wait for direction. You see what needs to get done and you do it. You build processes where none exist, flag issues before they become problems, and communicate clearly without being asked. Family office experience is not required — what matters is that you're resourceful, organized, and relentlessly execution-oriented.



What You'll Do:

  • Lead oversight and strategic direction of a diversified investment portfolio across real estate, private investments, and alternative assets.
  • Drive portfolio growth from ~$300M to $1B+ AUM through disciplined capital allocation and performance optimization.
  • Develop and maintain portfolio strategy, including risk management, diversification, and return optimization.
  • Identify underperforming assets and execute value-creation initiatives.
  • Deliver actionable insights to support investment decisions, capital deployment, and liquidity planning.
  • Implement AI and automation tools to enhance reporting, forecasting, and analytical capabilities.
  • Work closely with investment managers to monitor performance and ensure alignment with targets.
  • Oversee execution of asset-level business plans and strategic initiatives.
  • Optimize capital allocation across competing investment opportunities.
  • Ensure all entities are properly structured, compliant, and operating efficiently.
  • Coordinate relationships with external accountants, tax advisors, attorneys, and investment managers.
  • Oversee tax strategy, reporting, and compliance across the portfolio.
  • Communicate portfolio performance, risks, and strategic updates to the CEO.


What You'll need to bring to Maropost    

  • 7–12+ years of experience in FP&A, corporate finance, or a VP of Finance or Operations role — ideally in a fast-paced, lean environment where you wore many hats.
  • Strong financial modeling, forecasting, and analytical skills.
  • Deep understanding of financial statements, tax structures, and entity management.
  • Comfortable managing external advisors and holding them accountable.
  • Exceptional organizational skills — you keep track of everything and nothing slips.
  • High EQ and discretion — you'll be handling sensitive and confidential information.
  • Strong written and verbal communication — you can distill complexity into clear recommendations.
  • Tech-savvy and comfortable building out systems and processes from scratch.
  • Above all: you are a self-starter who takes ownership, operates with urgency, and gets things done without being told what to do.
  • You exemplify Maropost’s Values:
    • Customer Obsessed
    • Extreme Urgency
    • Excellence
    • Resourceful
