About the Role

Reporting to the FP&A Director, you will be a core analyst on our Financial Planning & Analysis team. This is a high-visibility seat for someone early in their finance career – ideally with an investment banking background – who wants to move closer to the operating decisions of a fast-growing SaaS business. You will build and maintain the financial models, forecasts, and reporting that leadership relies on, and you’ll get meaningful exposure to how a company is actually run.

Day to day, you will support the annual budget and rolling forecast, help prepare monthly financial reviews, and track key SaaS unit economics such as Gross Margin, Net Dollar Retention (NDR), Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC), and Lifetime Value (LTV). You will partner with teams across the company to gather data, pressure-test assumptions, and turn numbers into clear, actionable insight. If you have a strong analytical foundation, sharp Excel and modeling skills, and want to grow quickly in a collaborative environment, we’d love to hear from you.
