Description

We’re looking for a Senior Financial Analyst to own reporting and analysis that keeps leadership informed on how our topline is performing.

  • Analyze revenue trends, drivers, and variances, identifying risks and opportunities and translating them into clear commentary and recommendations for senior management.
  • Prepare management reports and presentations that translate financial data into clear, actionable recommendations for non-finance stakeholders.
  • Drive process improvements to reporting and modeling workflows, increasing accuracy, scalability, and turnaround time.
  • Support ad hoc financial analysis and projects as strategic priorities arise.

Requirements:

  • Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field. MBA or relevant advanced degree is a plus.
  • Minimum of 5 years of progressive finance experience, with a strong understanding of SaaS business models and key metrics.
  • Financial modeling experience & analytical skills with a focus on building scalable, repeatable tools & processes with strong attention to detail and accuracy.

Nice to Have:

  • High level of curiosity, accountability, & self-starter with ability to work independently.
  • Strong business acumen and a proactive, results-oriented approach.
  • Excellent interpersonal and collaboration skills with the ability to build strong relationships across the organization.
  • Ability to understand the business beyond finance, and strong ability to think strategically.
