Define and track key metrics and performance indicators to measure process efficiency and effectiveness.
Support change management, stakeholder communication, and training for new processes or systems.
Ensure initiatives are designed with controls, compliance, and audit readiness in mind.
Evaluate and manage tools and technologies (e.g., ERP, procurement platforms, automation solutions) that support scalable finance operations.

What we're looking for:

5–8+ years of experience in finance operations, business process improvement, or program management within a technology or software company.
Demonstrated success leading cross-functional programs or process transformations in a high-growth environment.
Deep understanding of finance processes and controls in a SaaS/software business model.

Proficiency in project management tools (e.g., Smartsheet, MS Project) and collaboration platforms (e.g., Slack, Microsoft Teams, Confluence).
Excellent problem-solving, project management, and stakeholder communication skills.
Comfortable working with executives and managing competing priorities with minimal oversight.
Proficiency in MS Office Tools including PowerPoint, Excel & Word
You'd really wow us if you have:
