About the team - Plaid's Strategic Finance team plays a critical role in shaping our long-term business strategy and execution. - The Strategic Finance team helps provide analytical rigor and data-driven insights to drive success across the entire organization.
- The Strategic Finance team's purpose is to support Plaid in achieving its short-term and long-term strategic & financial goals and help inform, articulate, and shape Plaid's growth trajectory. About the role You will own core pieces of Plaid's top-line revenue forecast and go beyond the number itself to understand what's actually driving it: internal data and external market factors that show how healthy and durable that growth is.
You'll work day-to-day with our GTM organization, turning that analysis into insights they can act on. You are highly analytical and quantitative, comfortable building bottom-up from raw data as well as using Plaid's existing tools and dashboards to sanity-check the picture, and skilled at moving between complex modeling detail and the bigger picture it tells. Responsibilities - Own core pieces of Plaid's top-line revenue forecast, building and refining the models and processes that turn what's happening in the business into an accurate, forward-looking number.
- Go beyond the forecast itself to explain what's driving it: internal data and external market/macro factors that show how healthy and durable that growth is, while pushing the underlying process to be more automated and scalable over time. - Partner day-to-day with our GTM organization, turning forecasting and analytics work into insights that shape their planning and decisions. - Own recurring KPI and variance reporting cadences for key stakeholders (from day-to-day dashboards to quarterly Board materials), surfacing risks and opportunities early.
