Strategic Finance Senior Manager

Company: ShopShops
Location: New York
Posted on: April 9, 2021

Job Description:

ShopShops is seeking a Strategic Finance Senior Manager who will play an important role in helping us achieve and exceed our growth goals. You will work with many facets of the business to provide visibility on all things financial to key stakeholders, surfacing new insights, and improving processes. The ideal candidate is highly analytical, able to communicate financial insights, and recommend appropriate actions, and is able to work across teams in China and the US (must speak Mandarin).

This is a rare opportunity to be a key contributor to a small but mighty (and quickly growing) team in a fast-adopting product category that has never been more relevant. Your colleagues, remote for now, have a fun and open/honest work dynamic, a fast-paced and "roll-up-your-sleeves" startup mentality balanced with strategic vision and focus. ShopShops has VC funding from top investors, scaling revenue, a working product, and a head start in the US market mitigating much of the startup risk.

Key Responsibilities

• Maintain long-term financial model and develop forecasting models to help the company manage long-term growth and opportunity
  • Support strategic decision-making with data-driven insights, analysis, and forecasts.
    • Track, benchmark, analyze, and develop strategic solutions to improve key metrics (LTV, CAC, channel efficiency, conversion, churn, expansion, engagement, NPS).
      • Analyze and segment historical data to derive actionable insights for department heads.
        • Continuously improve predictive value of forecast based on analysis of actual results.

                    Personal Attributes
                    
                    
                  • Entrepreneurial. You think outside the box; you can do more with less; you are resourceful and fiscally responsible in the pursuit of business objectives.
                  • Motivated by Scale. You want to take a company with massive market opportunity and grow its presence across the world.
                  • Nimble/Agile. You enjoy stepping outside of your comfort zone and relish the opportunity to tackle new and exciting challenges.
                  • Execution Focused. Apolitical, driven by financial objectives and/or pride in work, but not personal aggrandizement.
                  • Integrity. You keep your word and do not cut ethical corners. You choose to do what is right versus what is most convenient.
                  • Team Player. You are a collaborative, hardworking, problem-solver who leads by example. You would never ask anyone to do something that you are not willing to do yourself.
                  • Intellectually Curious. You have a deep desire to learn new things and acquire new skills.
                  • Style Enthusiast. You get excited about shopping, personal style, design and/or fashion. Hopefully you've already downloaded the ShopShops app!
