About this role / team:
We’re looking for a talented Senior Financial Analyst to join our Deal Desk team within Strategic Finance. The Deal Desk team works cross-functionally with sales, accounting, analytics, corporate FP&A, and more to manage commercial agreements, from standard arrangements to complex, non-standard deals with strategic advertising partners.
This individual should be highly detail-oriented and comfortable managing complex business models and Excel/Google Sheets tracking files, with the ability to reconcile data across sources and improve the models and processes used to track revenue adjustments over time. This role will manage our weekly tracking files, be able to understand how to integrate complex deals into our financial forecasting models, partner with accounting to ensure accruals are accurate and timely, and speak to the “why” behind the financials.
It is critical that this individual is driven, self-motivated, a self-starter, can work independently with minimal supervision, and demonstrates both good judgment and confidentiality. This role will routinely build financial models tracking performance, craft customer-facing incentive deals to drive revenue, and work with sales to optimize performance and maximize margin on a deal by deal basis. This role requires the Senior Financial analyst to be able to comprehensively understand the mechanics of how our business generates revenue both in current and hypothetical future states.
