Job description

Sesh is a modern nicotine platform company and the #1 independent pouch brand in the US. Our mission is to accelerate the end of smoking. We operate a Canadian parent and a US operating company, we make our product through a partner manufacturer, and we sell through distributors and retail. We are growing fast and the finance function is being built as we go. We're looking for a motivated designer who wants to grow in a fast-paced environment while taking ownership of creative that directly impacts marketing performance.

Why Sesh

The mission. We are here to accelerate the end of smoking. Combustion is on its way out and the nicotine molecule is not. We are building the platform for that shift, with dignity, transparency, and consumer choice as the values we hold ourselves to.

Respect runs both ways. Good people have options and we do not pretend otherwise. We ask you to be all in, and you get the same back from everyone around you. Straight answers, real ownership, and a team that cares and carries its share.

We are winning. Nicotine pouches are one of the fastest growing consumer categories in the US and we are the #1 independent brand in it, competing against companies a hundred times our size and taking share.

Equity. This role comes with ownership in the business. Everyone here has it.

Small team, direct access. About 40 people. You will work daily with the VP Finance and regularly with the CEO and the ELT. Nothing you build gets lost in three layers of approval.

Flexible time off and flexible hours. No fixed accrual and no strict 9 to 5. In office four days a week with Friday work from home. We care about output and coverage, not chair time.

We actually use modern tools. Claude is used across the company, not as a pilot. If you are good at putting AI to work, you will get more done here than anywhere with twice the headcount.

Interesting problems. Multi entity, cross border, partner manufacturing, excise tax, distributor and retail channels, a UK launch, and international royalty income. If you want to broaden past a narrow lane, there is more here than most companies our size can offer.

Be prepared for what this is. We move fast, the process is unfinished, and priorities shift. Some weeks will be messy. If you want a clean, mature finance function, this is not it. If you want to build one and have real impact, it is a good seat.
