Point Seven Group:
Point Seven Group (Point7) is a tenured, global management consulting firm dedicated to the commercial cannabis industry. Our world-class team of experts, who have direct hands-on experience in the regulated cannabis industry, is known for agility, speed, and exceptional service. Our success is measured by that of our clients, whether that’s winning licenses, creating global brands or expanding operations into new markets. We’ve developed a holistic service offering that addresses our clients’ business needs from pre-application strategy, through licensing, facility and operational setup, compliance, expansion, and exit. We create a custom roadmap for each client, delivered with high-touch service to ensure our clients hit every milestone, in every market, every time.

Location:
Point7 employees and consultants have been 100% remote, with intermittent travel for events and team meetings, since 2020. This position will be primarily remote, though the company is exploring office space in NYC and should the company open offices in NY, the
Contract Senior Financial Analyst would be invited to work alongside colleagues. While working remotely, the Contract Senior Financial Analyst will be expected to work in an environment that allows for productive, focused work.

Role Summary:
Point7 is seeking a Contract Senior Financial Analyst eager to grow within the organization, who is not afraid to take on additional assignments, or to step outside of the role’s core job description. This is not your standard low-pressure contract position — this is a hands-on opportunity to work side-by-side with seasoned specialists in the cannabis space in an intense, fast paced environment. We are looking for a capable, reliable, tenacious senior contractor who can come in and contribute at the highest level. This role will need to be able to successfully manage multiple complex projects at a time, sometimes in different jurisdictions with varying cannabis regulations and tax law, and be able to pivot from project to project with changing priorities as needed. Applicants with accounting, finance,

economics, project management, consulting, and/or related extracurricular involvement are preferred. Point7 continues to grow, and this role does have the potential to be extended at the conclusion of the contract, or to convert into a full-time role.
