What we do

We are seeking an experienced FP&A Associate Manager to lead revenue and take rate finance for a core

area of our business. This is a high-impact, high-visibility role that combines deep analytical

ownership with strategic influence. You will serve as the go-to financial expert for take rate and

revenue economics, drive forecasting and planning processes, and lead special projects that

shape how leadership understands and grows the business. Success in this role requires not

just financial acumen but genuine intellectual curiosity about how our products work — you will

need to get inside the product, understand the commercial levers, and build that understanding

into every model and narrative you produce.

What you'll do

Own end-to-end revenue and take rate modeling: develop and maintain the authoritative

financial model for platform revenue, covering pricing structure, volume dynamics,

product mix, and client segmentation.

Become the internal expert on product economics — deeply understand how platform

features, auction mechanics, pricing decisions, and client behavior affect take rate and

revenue outcomes.

Lead the monthly, quarterly, and annual revenue planning cycle: drive forecast

submissions, prepare variance commentary, and present results to senior finance and

business leadership.

Serve as the primary finance partner to product, commercial, and data teams on all

things revenue — including new product launches, pricing changes, and commercial

agreements.

Design and build financial models for new products and strategic pricing initiatives;

quantify expected revenue impact across scenarios and present recommendations to

leadership.

Produce executive-quality deliverables: own the revenue narrative in board

presentations, QBRs, investor materials, and CFO briefings.

Lead and execute special projects across the finance agenda — from strategic deep-

dives and competitive analysis to cross-functional initiatives and operational

improvements.

Mentor and develop junior FP&A team members; provide guidance on modeling best

practices, stakeholder communication, and analytical frameworks.

Who you are

6+ years of progressive experience in FP&A, strategic finance, investment banking, or

management consulting.

Proven track record of owning complex revenue models and delivering accurate,

insightful forecasts in a fast-moving environment.

Strong ability — and genuine interest — in understanding how products and platforms

work commercially, and turning that understanding into rigorous financial analysis.

Experience driving exec-facing deliverables: you are comfortable owning a narrative,

structuring a story, and presenting to C-suite and board-level audiences.

Advanced Excel/Sheets modeling skills; proficiency in SQL strongly preferred;

experience with BI tools (Tableau, Looker, Mode, etc.).

Exceptional communication skills — you translate complexity into clarity and influence

decisions at the highest levels of the organization.

High accountability, ownership mindset, and the ability to operate autonomously in
