• Develop and maintain detailed financial models that track cost per transaction and key operational levers across markets and partners.
• Support monthly financial reviews and variance analyses, offering insights on trends and potential optimizations.
• Collaborate with cross-functional partners including Accounting, Operations, Treasury, Business Management, and Product to align forecasts and ensure accurate financial reporting.
• Assist in budgeting and planning processes, including annual operating plans and rolling forecasts.
• Identify cost efficiency opportunities, helping product leaders understand the financial trade-offs of scaling decisions.
• Support the development of dashboards and reporting tools to drive visibility and accountability around variable spend.
• Contribute to ad hoc projects and deep-dive analyses as business needs evolve.

You Have:

• 4–6 years of experience in FP&A, corporate finance, or a related analytical role.
• Strong analytical skills with the ability to build and maintain complex financial models.
• Comfort working with large data sets; proficiency in Excel and/or Google Sheets is required, and experience with tools like Looker or Tableau is a plus.
• Ability to collaborate cross-functionally, communicate clearly to all levels of the organization, and translate financial data into actionable insights.
• A detail-oriented and proactive mindset, with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a fast-paced environment.
• An interest in global financial systems and a desire to work on high-impact, cost-sensitive areas of the business.
