Job Description

Stripe is a financial infrastructure platform for businesses. Millions of companies—from the world’s largest enterprises to the most ambitious startups—use Stripe to accept payments, grow their revenue, and accelerate new business opportunities. Our mission is to increase the GDP of the internet, and we have a staggering amount of work ahead. That means you have an unprecedented opportunity to put the global economy within everyone’s reach while doing the most important work of your career.

About the team

The Finance & Strategy team is an integral thought partner to Stripe’s core functional leaders. We bring understanding and predictability to Stripe’s bottom line financials. We work cross functionally across many surfaces at Stripe and help steward Stripe’s resource investments to improve the durability of our long term financial performance.

*All applications for this job posting will be evaluated for all teams across our Finance and Strategy organization including Corporate F&S, Core Tech F&S, Go to Market F&S, Payments F&S, Revenue/Finance Automation and Partnerships F&S. Your team alignment will be carefully assessed based on the experience and competencies you demonstrate through our comprehensive interview process.

What you’ll do

We're looking for a F&S Analyst to join our growing team. This individual will help us with the forecasting, budgeting, and reporting for various departments accurately and in a timely manner and deliver improvements in our integrated financial systems with business partners, financial colleagues, and engineers.

Responsibilities

  • Leverage your financial background to support and influence key strategic and business decisions.
  • Design and provide analytical rigor to measure efficiency and ROI of investments in headcount and non-headcount expenses.
  • Drive reporting, process, and discipline for finance routines to shape and influence decision-making (e.g. budget, forecast, monthly reviews, long-range plans).
  • Build and own models for in-depth analyses, as well as ensure their quality, timeliness, and accuracy.
  • Define metrics and leading indicators of business performance.
  • Partner with cross-functional teams, such as Data Science, to develop reporting dashboards.
  • Drive continuous process improvement, standardization, simplification, and reporting enhancements.

Who you are

We're looking for someone who meets the minimum requirements to be considered for the role. If you meet these requirements, you are encouraged to apply. The preferred qualifications are a bonus, not a requirement.

  • 3-5 years of relevant experience in strategic finance or FP&A.
  • A keen analytical eye and experience building integrated models from scratch (in Excel, or other planning applications).
  • Experience driving and executing on finance processes (e.g. budget, forecast reviews, negotiations).
  • A proven ability to build strong collaborative working relationships with business partners.
  • A proven ability to be a self-starter capable of driving business results without significant supervision.
  • The ability to maintain high performance under tight timelines and a “roll up your sleeves” mindset to get any job done.
  • The ability to bring structure to ambiguous areas of opportunity and thrive in an unstructured, fast-moving environment.
  • Excellent communication and organizational skills, both written and verbal.
  • Excellent problem-solving skills and demonstrated ability to work independently, analyze problems and data sets to make complex investigation decisions.
  • Strong knowledge of GSuite tools, Salesforce and MS-Office products and experience working with/analyzing contracts and large data sets using SQL.
  • Independently analyze and evaluate information from various data sources to determine a course of action for a matched case.
  • Demonstrated experience partnering with cross-functional stakeholders.
  • Demonstrated history of taking on various types of challenging projects and producing results.
  • Solution-oriented mindset with enthusiasm for establishing best practices.
  • Self-disciplined, diligent, proactive, and detail-oriented.

You will also likely have (not required):

  • Experience working at a high-growth technology or financial services company.
  • Experience managing headcount and operating expenses.
  • Experience supporting Go-to-Market and/or Product Functions.
  • Oracle, Anaplan, Tableau or other equivalent application experience.
  • Experience with Python or a willingness to learn.
  • Experience in data visualization and dashboarding.

Office-assigned Stripes spend at least 50% of the time in a given month in their local office or with users. This hits a balance between bringing people together for in-person collaboration and learning from each other, while supporting flexibility about how to do this in a way that makes sense for individuals and their teams.

The annual US base salary range for this role is $122,400 - $183,600. For sales roles, the range provided is the role’s On Target Earnings (OTE) range, meaning that the range includes both the sales commissions/sales bonuses target and annual base salary for the role. This salary range may be inclusive of several career levels at Stripe and will be narrowed during the interview process based on a number of factors, including the candidate’s experience, qualifications, and location. Applicants interested in this role and who are not located in the US may request the annual salary range for their location during the interview process.

Additional benefits for this role may include: equity, company bonus or sales commissions/bonuses; 401(k) plan; medical, dental, and vision benefits; and wellness stipends.

At Stripe, we're looking for people with passion, grit, and integrity. You're encouraged to apply even if your experience doesn't precisely match the job description. Your skills and passion will stand out—and set you apart—especially if your career has taken some extraordinary twists and turns. At Stripe, we welcome diverse perspectives and people who think rigorously and aren't afraid to challenge assumptions. Join us.
