Operational & Financial Analysis

  • Track key financial metrics (e.g., CAC, LTV, gross margin, burn rate, operating leverage) and highlight emerging trends, risks, and opportunities.

  • Evaluate cost structure optimization opportunities and recommend continuous process improvements across operational workflows.

  • Collaborate with accounting teams to ensure accurate month-end closing procedures, financial reporting alignment, and revenue recognition compliance.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related quantitative field.

  • MBA preferred.

  • 5–8 years of progressive experience in FP&A, corporate finance, or strategic finance.

  • Will consider candidates w/ 3-5 years of experience aiming to get a job to that next level.

  • Technical Skills:

    • Advanced financial modeling expertise in Excel and FP&A enterprise platforms (Adaptive Planning, Anaplan, Planful, Vena).

    • Proficiency with ERP systems (NetSuite, SAP, Workday, Oracle) and BI tools (Power BI, Tableau).

    • Understanding of GAAP accounting principles and three-statement financial modeling.

  • Soft Skills:

    • Executive presence with proven ability to communicate financial data clearly to non-financial executives and board members.

    • Exceptional analytical, critical thinking, and problem-solving skills.

    • Proven leadership track record in mentoring talent and managing multiple cross-functional priorities.

Benefits

  • Starting salary of $140,000, commensurate with experience and location.

  • Fully remote work environment.

  • Unlimited PTO.

  • $100 Wellness Reimbursement Program.
