Senior Strategic Finance Manager - Go-To-Market

About the Team and Role

The Financial Planning & Strategy (FP&S) team at Checkr sits at the intersection of finance, strategy, and execution. We don't just report on the business, we shape it. We drive strategic decision-making through deep cross-functional partnerships, financial and strategic analyses, and domain expertise. We proactively identify opportunities to fuel growth toward Checkr's goals and deliver the highest impact outcomes.

What You'll Do

• Serve as the lead strategic finance partner to executives across our GTM teams. Build trusted relationships that make you a go-to thought partner on the decisions that matter most.
• Build the next-generation StratFin team: Develop AI-powered workflows, automated analyses, and intelligence systems that redefine what a strategic finance team can do.
• Assess current and future strategic priorities. Quantitatively validate and advocate for the highest-ROI initiatives across the GTM organization.
• Proactively deliver data-driven recommendations that inform go-to-market tactics, product experiments, and cross-functional roadmaps. Build frameworks for evaluating sales efficiency and productivity. Partner with Data Analytics to develop predictive and automated reporting.
• Own a significant portion of our long-range and annual planning processes, including the strategic plan that positions GTM to hit our growth goals.
• Develop and grow a high-performing analyst.

What You Bring

• 8+ years of progressive experience, including 4+ years covering sales. Foundational experience in investment banking, private equity, or management consulting preferred. Experience with consumption-based business models is a meaningful plus.
• Proven track record of driving measurable business outcomes through financial analysis and strategic insight, not just reporting.
• Demonstrated success driving sales strategy, planning, and performance management.
• You've built something with AI—a model, a workflow, an automated analysis. You're eager to do more of it. You see AI as a core part of how great finance teams will operate, not a novelty.
• Expert-level modeling ability, translating complex business drivers into clear frameworks.
• Strong executive presence. You communicate with clarity and conviction at all levels.
• Experience with Salesforce, BI tools (ie. Omni), SQL.
• You identify problems before they're handed to you, and you thrive when the answer isn't obvious. An A-player mindset with a strong bias for action: you raise the bar, move with urgency, stay resilient through ambiguity, and take ownership to deliver meaningful outcomes.
