How much do beachhead jobs pay per year?
What is the difference between Beachhead vs Sales Associate?
| Aspect | Beachhead | Sales Associate |
|---|---|---|
| Required Credentials | Typically minimal, focus on industry knowledge | High school diploma or equivalent, sales training |
| Work Environment | Field sales, client meetings, strategic planning | Retail stores, offices, customer interaction |
| Industry Usage | Startups, tech, consulting for initial market entry | Retail, wholesale, service industries |
Beachhead roles often involve strategic market entry and require industry knowledge, while Sales Associates focus on direct customer sales and support. Both roles are essential but differ in scope and environment, with Beachhead positions typically more strategic and Sales Associates more customer-facing.

Job description
FutureSight is seeking a Co-Founder & CEO to lead Crossfoot, an AI-native accounting agent platform currently being built at our studio. This is a co-founder partnership with meaningful founder equity, not a salaried executive role.
Crossfoot is agentic accounting for small-to-mid CPA firms; a segment where accountant shortages are structural, client intake is capped by production headcount, and the manual close and tax prep workflow consumes the majority of senior staff capacity. Crossfoot connects to the tools firms already use (QuickBooks Online, Xero, Drake) and delivers finished work products ready for partner review, without requiring system migration or enterprise-scale implementation.
Market Context- We didn't just build a thesis; we validated it directly with the market. We've spoken with CPA firm managing partners, CAS leads, and tax preparers. The key insights:
- The why now is structural, not hype: the profession lost 300,000+ professionals from 2020โ2024, and the replacement pipeline has shrunk ~33% in a decade. Firms now cap new-client intake by production headcount rather than demand. They turn away winnable work they can't staff. Meanwhile, CAS (advisory) revenue is projected to reach 30% of the firm's revenue by 2026.
- Senior accountants spend 40%+ of their time on document intake and workbook compilation โ $90K staff doing $20/hour data entry โ while month-end close runs 10โ15 business days on a pure manual process.
- Early AI adopters in accounting already earn 39% more revenue per employee. The gap between firms that move and firms that don't is compounding now.
- We are targeting a large, fragmented, structurally underserved market. The total addressable market is an estimated $1.5B+ across 87,000+ US accounting firms, with a focused beachhead SAM of $400M+ (small/mid firms).
FutureSight is a leading venture studio that co-creates world-class software companies with values-driven entrepreneurs from inception to exit. We are a team of founders, operators and designers with experience successfully bringing software to market at scale.
Youโll coโcreate with a proven studio team, including:
- John Carbrey โ 4x founder, bootstrapped to $100M ARR
- Joshua Auslander โ Seasoned CFO and strategic advisor with $200M aggregate exits
- Alan Smith โ Globally recognized early stage validation expert, 24 products launched, an exit, 5M+ books sold
- Prathna Ramesh โ Early-stage investor and capital strategy advisor
- Founder equity with meaningful ownership from inception
- Preโseed capital committed by FutureSight for early hires and MVP development, with potential for followโon funding
- Studio resources, including embedded design, engineering, growth, and fundraising support from day one
- Investor and advisor network across logistics, vertical AI, and early-stage capital markets
- A true coโcreation model in which you operate as CEO with the studio as your partner
As Co-Founder & CEO, you will set the ventureโs direction and lead its execution.
- Strategy โ Refine the ICP, sizeโtiered pricing model, and product positioning
- Customer Development โ Lead pilots with managing partners, CAS leads, and outsourcedโaccounting/BPO operators at small-to-mid CPA firms, convert them to paid engagements, and build the referralโled goโtoโmarket motion
- Product โ Partner with the FutureSight product and engineering team to ship V1 and iterate on user feedback
- Capital โ Lead the seed raise, supported by FutureSight's network and traction
- Team โ Recruit and lead the founding team, and establish the cultural foundation of the company
- Previous founding experience at a venture-backed company
- Demonstrated success in B2B AI or B2B SaaS goโtoโmarket, including consultative, relationship-driven sales and customer engagement
- Fundraising fluency, with the ability to develop investor narratives and close capital
- Proven ability to attract, develop, and retain top talent
- Clearโeyed understanding of the risks and demands of coโfounding a venture-backed company
- Deep accounting domain expertise, with handsโon experience managing close processes, tax preparation, workpapers, and client accounting services within CPA firms.
Please submit your resume, LinkedIn profile, and a brief note on why this venture aligns with your goals as a founder. We will move quickly for the right candidate.
FutureSight is committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion. We welcome applicants of all backgrounds and experiences.
