Chief Financial Officer

Our Vision

At Gaia, we believe everyone deserves the chance to build a family — without the emotional and financial toll of traditional fertility care.

We’re the first company to offer value-based fertility: we align with outcomes, not procedures. If treatment doesn’t work, our members don’t pay. It’s that simple.

Born from our founder’s own IVF journey, Gaia exists to give people control over their fertility with clinically-proven pathways to parenthood — whether they want a child now or later. With a curated network of top-performing clinics, flexible financial products, and 90+ NPS wraparound support, we give people their best shot at becoming parents.

Now, we’re scaling fast — and looking for a world-class Chief Financial Officer to help us lead the next chapter.

The Role

We’re looking for a CFO who thinks like a founder: deeply strategic, resourceful, and excited to scale a business that sits at the intersection of finance and healthcare.

You’ll be at the heart of how Gaia grows — shaping how we finance, price, protect and deliver life-changing outcomes at scale.

You’ll own the company’s capital strategy, build high-performing teams across strategic finance, FP&A, credit, and accounting, and help us navigate the complexity of growth across multiple markets, partners, and products. You’ll partner with the CEO and Board to drive long-term strategy, and represent Gaia externally with investors, debt providers, and regulators.

We want someone who’s excited to build something complex and meaningful — from the financial system architecture to the day-to-day rhythms that make a great company.

Core Areas of Responsibility

1. Financial Product & Capital Strategy

  • Architect and evolve Gaia’s financial products, balancing access, economics and risk

  • Lead pricing strategy and unit economics as we launch new markets and models

  • Rethink and optimise our capital stack across equity, credit, and reinsurance

2. Strategic Finance and FP&A

  • Own company-wide budgeting, forecasting, and performance tracking

  • Scale FP&A as a strategic partner to every team

  • Champion financial clarity across the business to support better, faster decisions

3. Investor Relations & Fundraising

  • Own Gaia’s capital strategy and fundraising roadmap

  • Lead future debt and equity raises end-to-end — from narrative to term sheet

  • Cultivate strong relationships with our current and future capital partners

  • Lead any M&A opportunities

4. Finance Operations, Accounting, Tax

  • Build and lead a best-in-class finance team across the UK and US

  • Oversee financial reporting, accounting, compliance, payroll, and multi-currency treasury

  • Ensure controls and systems scale with the business

5. Risk, Credit & Insurance

  • Oversee Gaia’s underwriting and loan portfolio strategy

  • Own relationships with insurers and reinsurance partners

  • Balance risk, access, and capital efficiency across all our financial products

What We’re Looking For

Not just a finance leader but a business builder. You bring experience, energy, and clarity to complexity. You’ve operated in messy, regulated environments, and helped scale financial systems that are innovative and robust.

You Have:

  • Senior finance experience in a fast-growing, complex, regulated business (e.g. healthtech, fintech, insurtech)

  • A track record of managing high-stakes capital — from credit facilities to insurance partnerships

  • Deep FP&A and strategic finance expertise, with a sharp eye for metrics and performance

  • Proven experience raising capital across equity and debt markets

  • Built and led high-performing teams across finance disciplines

  • A reputation for challenging thinking, setting high standards, and getting results
