Responsibilities

We’re hiring a Strategic Finance Lead to help Numeral make better business decisions and carry them through to results. You’ll join a small finance team, work closely with the VP of Finance, and partner with leaders across the business.
This is a senior individual contributor role with ownership of defined areas of planning and selected strategic and systems projects. You’ll work alongside our existing strategic finance team to tackle questions that matter to the business, from the economics of a product launch to the rollout of a new planning platform. You’ll frame the problem, build the analysis, make a recommendation, and work across teams to put it into practice.
You’ll have direct exposure to leadership, meaningful influence over where we invest, and room to take on broader scope as the company grows.
Lead strategic projects through implementation. Own projects in areas such as pricing, new-product economics, go-to-market strategy, and capital allocation. Frame the problem, model the options, align teams on a recommendation, and help execute and measure the outcome.
Own key parts of planning and forecasting. Maintain driver-based forecasts, headcount and capacity models, and recurring KPI dashboards for your areas of responsibility. Contribute to the annual budget and long-range plan, explain monthly and quarterly variances, and recommend actions.
Understand what drives growth and profitability. Analyze the funnel, marketing returns, retention, gross margin, and customer economics. Test the assumptions behind the metrics and turn your findings into decisions about where to invest.
Partner with business leaders. Work directly with Sales, Marketing, Product, and Operations to set goals, evaluate hiring and investment proposals, and work through tradeoffs. Bring a clear finance perspective and stay involved as decisions are put into practice.
Make the business clear to leadership and investors. Own analysis and written narratives for selected board and investor materials, and support fundraising and diligence workstreams. Be precise about the numbers, the assumptions, and the implications.
Build and implement finance systems. Lead selected finance systems projects, including planning and reporting tools, from requirements and tool evaluation through implementation and adoption. Use AI and automation to improve speed and reliability, and partner with Accounting and Data to strengthen data quality.
What you'll bring:
Relevant finance and operating experience. Typically 5–8 years combining rigorous analytical training in investment banking, investing, or a comparable role with operating finance experience at a B2B software company during rapid growth. We value demonstrated ownership and judgment over an exact career path.
Excellent financial modeling. You can build a clean, driver-based Excel model from scratch, keep it understandable, and work quickly without compromising accuracy.
