Overview bina delivers globally accredited, digitally native education that adapts to each child's needs. As we grow our remote-first, globally distributed team, we’re looking for a strategic, systems-minded FinOps Manager to upgrade our financial and bizops with accuracy, punctuality, and efficiency.

This is a great opportunity to architect how a new form of schooling manages its operational & financial backbone — streamlining operations, analytics, ensuring compliance, and creating real-time performance visibility so that every resource contributes to joyful, quality education at scale.

We are looking for applicants who can start in

and can work full-time in

Afro-European timezones (GMT +0:00 to GMT +2:00) or Eastern Timezone (GMT -3:00 to GMT -5:00) . This is a

fully remote

position.

What is bina? We're creating joy and quality educational outcomes at scale. We offer a fully synchronous digital school with micro-classrooms of students from different corners of the globe, learning together with top-notch teachers. We go beyond academics, focusing on social-emotional learning and cultural and environmental awareness through biome-themed units. We're curating an intuitive educational experience by integrating Ed-tech tools, research, and content. It's a sleek schooling experience for students, educators, and families.

What does bina's FinOps Manager do? You'll be the operational backbone of bina, building and managing the financial infrastructure that enables smart, data-driven decision-making across the organization.
