🎶 About Mila 🎶

Mila's mission is to unlock the potential of children with learning difficulties by developing medical devices for children with neurodevelopmental disorders.

On a daily basis, families of children with learning difficulties (dyslexia, dyspraxia, dysphasia, ADHD, etc.) are faced with a shortage of healthcare professionals, resulting in an average waiting list of 18 months and an insufficient frequency of therapeutic exercise. It is also an educational issue as these disorders have such an impact on these children's schooling and self-esteem.

We developed Mila-Learn, a CE-marked medical device software that uses rhythmic stimulation to provide early support and improve continuity of care. On the child's side, thanks to the support of our strategic investors and partners (Warner Music Group, Sony, Concord, Disney), the product is a video game based on a strong use of music to create a rich, non-medical and non-stigmatising experience for the child. On the parent's side, the product provides close support to make this obstacle course easier and more fluid.

Mila is a team of 20 diverse backgrounds in medicine, video games and patient experience, committed to achieving universal access to care for pediatrics. Since its inception in late 2018, we have built a product that has been CE marked, evaluated in 3 scientific studies with 7000 families and a double-blind placebo-controlled pivotal clinical trial, endorsed by 5 large insurers in the market, and earned a reputation as a reliable partner in the ecosystem. Backed by leading healthcare and digital funds, we strive to be the trusted reference for children's neurodevelopmental disorders.

🎶 Your mission 🎶

You'll act as a strategic partner to the founders and other members of the team, providing data-driven financial insights to inform decision making. Your responsibilities will include:

• Developing and monitoring a financial roadmap to ensure we have adequate funding for our operations, including upcoming product launches, R&D investments, clinical trials in France and the US, and market entry strategies. Monitor burn rate and cash runway to ensure efficient utilisation of funds raised.
• Work with department heads to develop detailed annual budgets and rolling forecasts, setting revenue targets, expense limits and capital expenditure allocations. Regularly track budget performance and provide guidance to budget holders to ensure optimal resource utilisation. Implement tools to provide live access to high quality financial data for all decision makers across the company.
• Prepare monthly reports for the Board and work closely with the CEO to prepare for investor meetings.
• Standardise and automate the billing process for our current B2B and future direct-to-patient activities.
• Maintain and develop relationships with external partners, in particular banks, accountants and auditors.
• Work with other members of the team to identify and evaluate potential growth opportunities, in particular distribution agreements with US healthcare companies.

We are looking for an entrepreneurial personality with previous experience in start-ups or VCs. As the company grows, you'll build and mentor a finance team that can effectively support the organisation's financial management needs to build the pediatric neurodevelopment platform that families demand.
