• Partner with Marketing leadership to evaluate campaign performance, track CAC/LTV trends, and assess pipeline contribution by channel; provide financial frameworks to guide marketing spend and measure ROI
• Execute monthly financial forecasts, annual budgets, and long-range planning activities
• Collaborate with Accounting to maintain consistency between budgets, forecasts, and reported financials
• Provide insightful reporting, presentations, variance explanations, and data analyses (e.g., ARR, revenue, expense) to senior management in support of forecasting, business reviews, and performance management
• Communicate the ‘story’ behind the numbers clearly and compellingly to senior stakeholders
• Project manage the monthly Operational Review and Board of Directors reporting processes, ensuring deadlines are met
• Partner with cross-functional teams to ensure data quality and accuracy within key financial systems (e.g., Adaptive, Keystone, NetSuite)
• Own design, development, implementation, and maintenance of integrated financial models and processes
• Lead ad hoc modeling to support strategic and operational initiatives

• 5+ years of experience in a financial-based role, ideally within Private Equity-backed SaaS companies
• Strong understanding of SaaS metrics (e.g., MRR, ARR, GRR), forecasting, and financial modeling best practices
• Experience collaborating with international GTM teams (primarily EMEA and Asia Pacific) is a plus
• Strong proficiency in Excel, including financial modeling, scenario analysis, and pivot tables
• Hands-on experience with Adaptive, NetSuite, Salesforce, and Tableau or Power BI
