About the role
Overview At Maev, we believe dogs deserve a seat at the table. Or at the very least, nutrient-dense food that’s human-grade. That’s why we’re relentless in our pursuit of better, faster, and smarter. As the first and only Human-Grade Raw Food for Dogs, Maev has been rooted in innovation since day one. We’re a brand built on the belief that “good” is never enough. That “normal” or “traditional” doesn’t always mean “optimal.” And that it’s better to live in possibility. For us, “impossible” is just a limiting belief. We’re obsessed with radically improving the lives of dogs and dog parents everywhere. With over 90 million dogs in the US, strong industry CAGR, an increased focus on nutrition, and traditional kibble losing market share due to lack of brand loyalty and poor quality, Maev is incredibly well-positioned to combine these strong industry tailwinds with a brand anchored in quality, transparency, and emotional connection. As of 2023, Maev is the #1 fastest growing, most disruptive brand in the hyper-competitive category of Pet — and the 38th fastest growing private company in America. Our team is made up of thought leaders, risk-takers, tastemakers, disruptors, creatives, critical thinkers, and, occasionally, dog people. We attract top tier talent from the most successful, differentiated, fastest growing, and most innovative brands and organizations in the world. We win awards, we’re ambitious, and we’re on the map. We built this thing from scratch. (And we’re just getting started.) Join us. Role Maev is seeking a Senior Vice President of Finance to lead the company's financial strategy, FP&A, accounting, treasury, and business performance while serving as a key member of the senior leadership team. This executive will help shape the strategic direction of the business by translating financial insights into thoughtful decisions that accelerate growth, strengthen profitability, and maximize long-term enterprise value. This is a highly strategic leadership role for an executive who thrives at the intersection of finance and business building. You'll inherit a high-performing finance organization, exceptional business fundamentals, and a differentiated brand with a meaningful runway, allowing you to focus less on building the foundation and more on influencing where the company goes next. From product innovation and omnichannel expansion to capital allocation and operational investment, you'll play a central role in helping determine how Maev scales. The SVP of Finance is a collaborative leader who builds trust across the organization. They develop high-performing teams, partner closely with leaders across every function, and bring the executive presence to influence the Board, investors, lenders, and key external partners. For the right leader, this role represents an opportunity to shape the trajectory of one of the most exciting brands in pet while building toward a future CFO opportunity as the business continues to grow. The SVP of Finance reports to the CEO and Founder, Katie Spies.
