Why we’ll hire you:

• You love forecasting: digging into user behavior and growth dynamics, building and testing models for predictiveness, identifying key inputs, and collaborating with your stakeholders on assumptions.
• You’re a systems-thinker: you automate and simplify repetitive tasks to free up time for insightful analysis.
• You are scary good with data. You look at charts, furrow your eyebrows, and observe that something doesn’t seem quite right. Others see trends; you see outliers.
• You are intellectually curious and stubbornly dig into details to find root causes rather than accepting convenient surface-level explanations or presuppositions.
• You clearly and concisely communicate complex topics to your stakeholders, separating the signal from the noise.
• You are empathetic, emotionally intelligent, and easy to work with. You understand at a cellular level that your stakeholders have jobs to do and decisions to make, and it is your job to empower them to make informed decisions.
• You have a demonstrated pattern of being self-started, self-taught, self-directed, and self-sufficient.  When you see something that looks off, you dig into it, find the cause, and implement solutions without being asked.
• You are a hard worker.  You have a consistent pattern of hitting deadlines.

You will have the following core areas of focus:

• Forecasting, financial analysis, reporting, and cost management frameworks for the Engineering, Product, and Corporate Development teams
• Revenue modeling and sensitivity analysis in support of new and emerging product offerings
• Cash flow forecasting
• Modeling, analysis, and reporting for Rover’s COGS and variable cost models
• Presenting and Communicating financial results to your stakeholders and executive leadership
• Constantly improving forecast models and reporting processes for higher accuracy and lower maintenance

Your Toolset includes:

• Top notch modeling skills.  Demonstrated experience of building dynamic cost models from scratch, with easily repeatable monthly updates and a clear relationship between model inputs and the owners of those inputs.

• Experience and a passion for fast paced, high growth companies
• Mode, Tableau, Power BI or similar data visualization tools
• Netsuite, Hyperion, Adaptive Planning, Pigment, or other EPM tools
• Fundamentals of financial accounting, analytics and internal customer service

Your Qualifications are:

• BS in Finance, Accounting, Math, Statistics, Business, or Computer science preferred - the main thing is you have learned how to think analytically. 
• 5+ years in corporate finance / operational FP&A at either a high-growth tech startup or an established technology company
• Exceptional Excel / financial modeling skills.
