    ** We're hiring - Startup Accountant (Junior CFO) role *** The Planet Startup team is expanding, and we're looking for our first Startup Accountant (Junior CFO) to join the rocket ship. We're looking for someone who: 🎓 Has a degree in accounting, finance or similar, and/or 💰 2+ years professional experience working in a finance or accounting role, or internally at a scaling tech SaaS company,  🚀 Has a genuine interest and affection for startups & high,    👩🚀 Is Brisbane based, but would love the flexibility of a remote/hybrid role, and  🤣 You would trust to break you out of prison if you needed them to (trustworthy and resourceful). This role will be hands-on from day #1, and would be great for someone in accounting or finance who didn't always 'fit' because they wanted to be more proactive and helpful for their clients. If there is someone in your network that you think would be a great fit, please share the link below with them and connect us! https://lnkd.in/gMfa_n_4 Here's to more "Planeteers" in the near future! #startups #scaleups #planetstartup #cfo #finance #startupaus

    ** Year in Review - Planet Startup's FY24, by the numbers ** This time last year we, our founders Marc Orchard and Rhys Cupples soft launched what would become Planet Startup. Here's our last 12 months, by the numbers: 250+ founder conversations 200+ waitlist applications 50+ LinkedIn posts 35 CFO clients (sprints, projects & retainers) 6 capital raises 4 startup conferences & events 3 pairs of high tops 2 name changes 1 completed commercial agreement, & 0 (still!) coffee machine's in the office (maybe this year Rhys!) During FY24, our clients have exceeded all our expectations: ❤️ 35 clients (seed to series B) 📈 $275m+ collective valuation 💰 $40m in revenue (FY24) 💸 $7.5m investment raised 💲 2 acquisitions (in process) Looking ahead to FY25, our purpose remains the same. With less than 20% of high growth, pre-series A companies in Australia having a part or full time CFO, our mission is to empower Australia's most ambitious companies with the fractional CFO support they need to raise capital and scale. Our goals for Planet Startup over the next 3 years: 🎓 1,000 founders educated ❤️ 100 retainer clients, and 📈 10 investments (off our balance sheet) A huge shout out and thank you (SO MUCH) to each and everyone of you who have helped us on our journey to date. We can't wait to work with you all even more in FY25. #startups #scaleups #planetstartup #cfo #finance #FY24 #FY25
