About the role

Own the Funds division narrative on financial performance, constraints, and outlook including mastery of Funds P&L.

Shape where capital, headcount, and resources go across go-to-market, product, engineering, customer relations, and operations — pressure-testing new initiatives and existing plans, and owning the call on what to fund and what to cut.

Drive quarterly growth planning and target-setting, including bookings, pipeline generation, quota, and sales compensation.

Develop strategy, policy, and operations to manage product pricing and deal desk, rooted in detailed understanding of unit economics.

Responsibilities

  • Own the Funds division narrative on financial performance, constraints, and outlook including mastery of Funds P&L.
  • Shape where capital, headcount, and resources go across go-to-market, product, engineering, customer relations, and operations — pressure-testing new initiatives and existing plans, and owning the call on what to fund and what to cut.
  • Drive quarterly growth planning and target-setting, including bookings, pipeline generation, quota, and sales compensation.
  • Develop strategy, policy, and operations to manage product pricing and deal desk, rooted in detailed understanding of unit economics.

How We Work

  • You form a sharp point of view on where to invest and build conviction around it.
  • You work with product, engineering, GTM, and ops to get to the right call together, and you carry the decision through to execution.
  • You've stopped funding a project people believed in, and brought them along on why.
  • You've built the commercial mechanics: sales planning, incentive design, and pricing, all grounded in unit economics.
  • Your analysis is sharp and aimed straight at the question. You use AI to get there faster, applying it where it earns its place rather than by default.
  • You make senior judgment calls before the data is clean, and shape your own mandate rather than wait to be handed one.
  • You bias to action. You'd rather make the call in days and correct course than spend weeks on a cleaner answer.
  • You communicate to executives in writing, in person, and in charts. You distill a complex problem to the handful of points that move the decision.

What We’re Looking For

You've owned growth planning for a rapidly growing business or product line, with 6+ years of experience across strategic finance, consulting, or corporate strategy. You built it, not reported on it.

Success Will Be Measured

  • Leadership has conviction on where the next dollar of capital goes, and why.
  • The Funds leadership team plans off one model it trusts, with targets, performance, and tradeoffs in one place.
  • A clear, consistent narrative on financial performance and which growth levers to prioritize.
  • The business hits its growth and profitability targets.
