Remote Vice President Ecommerce Jobs (NOW HIRING)

This is a remote position.

The Company is a high-growth, entrepreneurial organization in the branded merchandise, kitting/fulfillment, and eCommerce space. With a strong reputation for creativity, executional excellence, and long-standing client partnerships, the company is driven by a sales-first culture, operational rigor, and a commitment to continuous improvement.

We are now seeking a strategic and hands-on Vice President of Finance to lead financial operations and partner closely with executive leadership to support continued growth and scalability. This individual will serve as a trusted advisor to the executive team, translating financial data into clear insights, the "why" behind the numbers, that drive confident decision-making, operational discipline, and long-term strategy.

The ideal candidate is a seasoned finance leader who brings both strategic vision and operational depth. They must be comfortable operating at a high level while also understanding the "nitty-gritty" of accounting, cash management, and commission/comp structures. Genuine executive presence with a commission-based sales team (respecting sales as the engine of the business, not a cost to control) is essential. Experience with nonstandard sales comp/commission plans and a conservative, cash-disciplined approach to treasury are strongly preferred.

I. Scope of the Position

The Vice President of Finance leads and oversees all finance operations, including accounting, treasury, tax, risk management, warehouse/operations finance, and compliance. This role balances strategic financial leadership with hands-on operational oversight to ensure accuracy, compliance, scalability, and alignment with company objectives.

Reporting directly to the CEO, the Vice President of Finance partners cross-functionally with Sales, Warehouse/Operations, HR, and eCommerce to align financial structures with revenue strategy and day-to-day execution. The role also oversees treasury, payroll, financial coordination, and compliance. As the organization continues to grow, this leader will build processes, strengthen systems, and develop talent, while working alongside the current finance leader during a transition period before assuming full ownership of the function.

II. Experience and Qualifications

The company seeks a candidate who possesses:

• 10+ years of progressive finance or accounting experience, with at least 5 years in a senior leadership role (CFO, VP Finance, or Controller)
  

• Demonstrated success supporting budgeting, forecasting, long-term financial planning, and executive-level reporting
  

• Strong treasury management expertise, including cash flow planning and a conservative, cash-disciplined approach to liquidity
  

• Experience managing commission and bonus calculations and reporting for a commission-based sales team; nonstandard or complex comp plan experience a strong plus
  

• Proven experience overseeing payroll operations and multi-state tax/nexus compliance
  

• Deep experience implementing and optimizing financial systems (QuickBooks, ERP platforms, Excel/Power Query) within a growing technology stack
  

• Strong understanding of billing structures, invoicing processes, AR/AP oversight, and revenue alignment
  

• Industry experience in promotional products, branded merchandise, or an adjacent sector with similar dynamics (e.g., beverage, hospitality; rebates, credit memos) a plus
  

• M&A experience, including due diligence and post-acquisition integration, a plus but not required
  

• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Business Administration, or related field; CPA or MBA preferred
  

III. Key Responsibilities

Financial Management, Collaboration & Oversight

• Oversee all finance operations, including accounting, AR/AP, treasury, and liquidity management
  

• Maintain executive oversight of invoicing, customer billing structures, and vendor payments to ensure strong cash discipline
