Support business case development for key initiatives and capital allocation decisions.
Jump into high-priority projects within finance as business needs evolve.
Qualifications:
Experience in startup finance, investment banking, consulting, or FP&A.
Strong financial modeling and analytical skills
A structured thinker who can operate in ambiguity, solve open-ended problems, and prioritize effectively.
Strong communication skills with the ability to work cross-functionally and present to leadership.
High level of ownership and curiosity; thrives in fast-moving, scrappy environments.
Familiarity with financial planning and accounting tools (e.g. Foundry, Netsuite).
Passion for data and storytelling through numbers.
Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, Business, or related field.
Physical Demands:
