Chief Financial Officer

About Our Company

Monsoon is a fast-growing, Ireland and UK-based eCommerce agency, specialising in delivering complex B2B and B2C digital commerce solutions for leading brands across multiple sectors. In addition to our established agency services, we’ve recently developed a proprietary cloud-based B2B eCommerce platform, designed to help mid-market and enterprise businesses efficiently manage and scale their online operations.

As we embark on the next phase of our growth — scaling both our services and SaaS offering — we are seeking an experienced, commercially astute, and strategically minded Fractional CFO to join us. This is a pivotal leadership role at a critical and exciting stage of our journey.

The Role

The Fractional CFO will serve as a key financial leader and strategic advisor, working closely with the CEO and leadership team.

A major focus of this role will be leading our investment fundraising process for the new B2B eCommerce platform, ensuring we are financially investor-ready and well-positioned to secure capital from the right partners.
