About the company

Our client is a fast-growing software company.

\- Academic credentials from a leading, highly selective university.

\- Expert-level Excel or Google Sheets modeling skills, including three-statement and unit economics models.

\- Self-directed, able to find information and solve problems without playbooks or close management.

\- Based in or willing to relocate to the San Francisco area, in the office at least three days a week.

\- High urgency and a strong sense of ownership, comfortable with long hours and fast change.

Bonus points

\- Experience moving into a tech or startup company after finance or consulting work.

\- Prior planning and analysis work for a fast-scaling business would be an advantage.

\- Involvement in capital raising, investor-facing reporting or acquisition deal work.

\- A degree in finance, economics or a quantitative field.
