The base salary offered for this role and level of experience will begin at $101,000 and up to $140,000. Full-time employees are also eligible for a bonus, competitive equity package, and benefits. The actual base salary offered may be higher, depending on your location, skills, qualifications, and experience.

- Own payroll and workforce planning end-to-end, ensuring accuracy, timeliness, and strong partnership with People, Recruiting, and Compensation teams.
- Build and maintain robust financial models to support headcount planning, forecasting, and strategic decision-making.

- Operate as a trusted partner to leaders across the organization, influencing decisions through clear financial insights and tradeoff analysis.

To thrive in this role, you have
- Minimum 3+ years of Finance/FP&A, investment banking, consulting experience, or Big 4 accounting/advisory.
- Bachelor's Degree, or equivalent degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics or other relevant field.
- Experience building financial models for budgeting and forecasting with strong attention to detail.
