At Possible, we’re building a new kind of consumer finance company, one that helps people stay out of debt rather than profit from keeping them in it. ## ABOUT THE ROLE Strategic Finance at Possible sits at the intersection of three horizons: the recurring FP&A rigor that keeps the business running, near-term collaboration and modeling that shapes upcoming product and capital decisions, and long-term strategy that sets our 3–5 year path. The Sr. Strategic Finance Manager owns this full range - acting as both a hands-on expert in our core forecasting and reporting processes and the person actively automating that work, so that the function truly scales in strategic focus. This is a senior, high-visibility role contributing as a finance team leader with regular exposure to the executive team and Board. ## RESPONSIBILITIES - Own and continuously improve core forecasting, budgeting, and variance-analysis processes, including recurring deliverables like consolidated flash and product level forecasting, KPI tracking, headcount and opex BvA reporting, and ensuring the accuracy and functionality of the consolidated financial model - while actively automating this work using AI tools, SQL, and data platforms (e.g., Databricks and Sigma) to cut cycle time and manual error - Own quarterly Board reporting materials and monthly business reviews, translating dense data into clear, decision-ready narratives for cross-departmental team leads, executives, and the Board - Build and enhance financial models that quantify the impact of near-term business decisions - new product launches, pricing changes, and major capital structure events - Partner with the Treasury and Capital Markets team on debt and equity financing decisions, liquidity and covenant analysis, enterprise value improvements, and investment evaluation - Lead cross-functional financial analysis for new product initiatives, translating test design, desired outcomes, unit economics, and revenue-recognition implications into a clear financial picture in partnership with Product, Credit/Underwriting, Marketing, Accounting, and Business Operations - Run scenario and sensitivity analyses to help identify viable strategic paths to explore, collaborating with executive leadership on direction and Business Operations on the underlying financial impact - translating findings into clear, actionable recommendations for senior leadership - Maintain finance documentation and playbooks, specifically leveraging AI and other tools, so recurring processes stay scalable and increasingly automated, freeing time for higher-impact strategic work ## REQUIREMENTS - 5+ years of FP&A, corporate finance, transaction advisory, private equity, or investment banking experience; fintech and/or growth-stage company experience strongly preferred - Proven experience building and maintaining sophisticated, multi-scenario financial models spanning the three financial statements (expertise in how all three statements interact is a must), capital structure, and debt instruments - Demonstrated success automating recurring finance workflows with AI tools, SQL, and/or data platforms (e.g., Databricks) — this role is expected to actively drive AI adoption within the finance function, not just use existing tools - Comfortable operating across time horizons: rigorous ownership of day-to-day forecasting and reporting alongside meaningful contribution to multi-year strategic planning - Excel expert; hands-on SQL or direct data-querying experience strongly preferred - Strong executive presence — able to distill complex analysis into crisp, Board-ready narratives and influence senior stakeholders - Self-directed, intellectually curious strategic problem solver with outstanding written/verbal communication skills, strong cross-functional collaboration (Accounting, Treasury, Product, executive leadership), and the ability to earn influence without authority ## LOCATION This is a Hybrid position.
