Financial Planning & Forecasting: Develop and maintain dynamic forecasting models covering revenue, redemption volumes, promotions, pricing, merchandising, and product enhancements. Translate strategic targets into actionable operating plans at the customer-segment level and prepare forecasting materials for executive and board-level reporting.
Customer Revenue & Retention Analytics: Forecast existing customer annual recurring revenue (ARR) to support net revenue retention (NRR) objectives. Integrate financial, customer segmentation, and redemption data to identify expansion opportunities, assess customer behavior, and develop share-of-wallet models.

Establish consistent data workflows, documentation standards, governance practices, and quality controls to improve analytical reliability and scalability.
Cross-Functional Business Partnership: Collaborate with Customer Success, Merchandising, Product, Accounting, Business Intelligence, and IT teams to align financial insights with business priorities. Support customer growth initiatives, assortment optimization, product roadmap decisions, pricing strategies, and supplier performance reviews.
Commercial & Operational Support: Provide financial analysis for RFPs, promotional campaigns, product features, partnerships, and return-on-investment assessments. Respond to emerging leadership questions and improve forecasting accuracy during seasonal peaks and periods of fluctuating redemption demand.
Strategic Influence & Execution: Proactively identify high-impact opportunities, translate financial insights into clear recommendations, and drive initiatives from concept through execution. Ensure teams have the models, reporting, and customer-level plans needed to achieve financial and operational objectives.
Education: Bachelor's degree in Finance, Business Analytics, Data Science, Statistics, or a related discipline.
Professional Experience: At least five years of experience in financial planning and analysis (FP&A), strategic analytics, or a comparable role within a fast-paced, data-driven environment.
