About the Role
We are looking for a Strategic Finance Analyst to support financial planning and strategic decision-making at a fast-growing, subscription-driven business.

You will work closely with the Head of Strategic Finance across strategic planning, financial modeling, inventory planning and leadership reporting.
What You'll Do
Financial modeling: Maintain and extend driver-based financial models across subscription cohorts, new customer growth, retention, and pricing; lead forecasting across revenue, COGS, and cash flow, linking operational drivers to financial outcomes and proactively flagging variances to plan
Cohort analysis: Maintain cohort performance models (LTV, CAC, churn, retention) across subscription and e-commerce channels; update as new data becomes available to support growth, pricing, and product decisions
Inventory planning: Partner with operations and supply chain on inventory planning
New businesses: Build business cases for new product launches, track performance vs. plan as initiatives scale, and contribute to ad hoc analysis in fast-moving situations
Reporting: Drive day-to-day reporting and dashboards across key metrics (subscription growth, CAC/LTV, gross margin, inventory turns); lead budget vs. actual variance analysis across key P&L lines and translate findings into clear summaries for leadership
Strategy: Help identify and implement improvements to financial and planning processes, reporting, tools, and data infrastructure
What You'll Bring
3–6 years of experience in investment banking, consulting, FP&A, or related field
Experience working with or analyzing subscription, e-commerce, or consumer businesses
Strong financial modeling skills, including experience with cohort modeling and unit economics
Self-starter who operates independently, thinks ahead, and brings intellectual curiosity to ambiguous problems
Excellent communication skills; able to distill complex analyses into clear narratives for stakeholders
Ability to partner effectively within the finance team and across functions
