Our story:
Blackpanda Group is Asia's leading local cyber incident response firm, dedicated to delivering world-class digital emergency response services to businesses in the region.
We help businesses strengthen their cyber resilience and secure their digital operations by supporting them with incident response delivered by local experts and cyber insurance underwritten by our Lloyd's of London coverholder Pandamatics Underwriting.
Our mission is to make cyber resilience achievable for all, with services and solutions designed for the Asian market.
Our Mission: To democratise cyber resilience.
Our Vision: A world where organisations of all sizes have access to best-in-class cyber incident response and insurance solutions, so they can conduct business securely and sustainably.
What we are looking for:
Blackpanda seeks to hire a Chief Financial Officer capable of designing and pitching the right investment story to the market, as well as responsible for all investor relations. A strong internal team of four exists already covering Legal, Administration, IT, Accounting, and Financial Control.

Blackpanda is searching for an experienced early-stage venture capitalist investor at least having reached Principal level and has an active network of institutional investors in the Asia region along with strong deal experience, or equitable background. TMT investment bankers at a minimum of Executive Director level may also apply, but experience with early-stage ventures is preferred. This individual most likely has reached the typical point of their career where they have accumulated enough capital and experience in the services side of industry to be financially stable and are now hungry for a shot to build something themselves.
The greatest priority would be given to financial professionals with the above experience-base, and industry knowledge or direct experience working with cybersecurity firms.
If you are the type of financial professional who has excelled in his or her career to-date, but are seeking more meaning and a sense of self-satisfaction with truly adding value and purpose, then you have come to the right place
Responsibilities and Duties- Design and pitch the right investment story to the market, as well as managing investor relations. Provide strategic recommendations and identify risks and opportunities to the CEO with respect to fund raising activities and capital management.

- Own and manage the capital stack, including scenario modeling based on different fund raising options.
- Monitor and compile an intelligence library on financing activity trends and strategic initiatives of all competitors in the cybersecurity and insurtech space.
- Identify and recommend merger and acquisition opportunities that contribute to the long term strategic direction of Blackpanda in terms of its capital raising and financial growth plans.
- Principal or Executive Director level career venture capitalist or investment banker (M&A in either TMT or FIG groups) in the region with strong deal experience, who is looking for a change.
- Finance professionals who have served in cybersecurity firms, particularly digital forensics incident response, cyber insurtech MGAs, or similar type of SaaS business models will be given significant preference.
- Been through the ringer, thrived, and has earned their stripes as being pushed to their limits as a venture capitalist or banker by unreasonable and demanding clients, colleagues, and have been willing to sacrifice their personal life to maintain a positive career trajectory and to continue to do so.
- Experienced in leading deals and a team with all the relevant counterparties such as lawyers, accountants, consultants, etc.
- Charismatic and extroverted personality to pitch and deal with investors of different types, geographies, and personalities to lighten the CEO's load to include travel and entertainment; no quiet or shy bookworms.
- Capable to pitch the company on their own and can execute what the CEO needs and able to be trusted without reservation.
- Needs to be physically based in Singapore and perfectly fine to be called by the CEO or any investors any day of the week after normal work hours, if needed.
- Technical accounting knowledge requirements to have oversight of the company's books in support of the Finance team, and the financial modeling experience required to balance both investor expectations and also auditors.
