Your Role

This is a pivotal leadership hire on Zip's Strategic Finance team. As our first Corporate Finance leader, you will build and own the financial infrastructure that powers our company-wide planning, forecasting, and reporting processes. You'll be the connective tissue between our business units and executive leadership — translating operational activity into financial insight and driving the rigor that enables confident, fast decision-making.

You'll report directly to the VP of Strategic Finance and have broad influence across the organization, as well as partnering closely with our G&A teams to serve as their strategic finance business partner as Zip continues to scale.

You Will Own

Consolidated Financials & Reporting

• Develop and maintain Zip's consolidated P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow statement, ensuring accuracy and consistency across all business units

• Own the monthly and quarterly financial close process in partnership with Accounting, producing timely consolidated results with clear variance analysis

• Build and maintain board- and investor-ready financial packages that tell a compelling and accurate story of Zip's financial performance

Cash Flow Modeling

• Own Zip's 13-week and long-term cash flow model, providing visibility into liquidity, working capital, and runway

• Proactively identify cash flow risks and opportunities, working cross-functionally to inform treasury strategy and capital allocation decisions

• Build scenario models to stress-test the business under different growth and cost assumptions

Budgeting, Planning & Forecasting

• Lead Zip's annual operating plan (AOP) process end-to-end — from goal-setting and timeline management through final board approval

• Be the main owner and administrator of our financial planning and analysis (FP&A) tool and data infrastructure, ensuring it is scalable, intuitive, and trusted across the business

• Drive the quarterly re-forecast process, synthesizing inputs from department heads into a coherent, well-supported financial outlook

Long-Range Planning

• Develop and maintain Zip's 3-5 year financial model, articulating the long-range path to profitability and key strategic milestones

• Partner with the CEO, Head of Finance, and VP of Strategic Finance on strategic planning narratives for investors, board members, and M&A processes

• Translate long-range financial targets into annual and quarterly operating metrics that teams can use to manage their businesses

G&A Finance Partnership

• Serve as the dedicated finance business partner to HR and People Operations — supporting headcount planning, compensation modeling, benefits cost analysis, and organizational design decisions

• Partner with Zip's Real Estate team on office portfolio strategy, lease modeling, occupancy planning, and capital expenditure forecasting

• Build trusted relationships with G&A leaders, helping them understand their budgets, manage spend, and make data-driven decisions

Qualifications

• 8+ years of progressive finance experience, with significant time in FP&A, corporate finance, or a related function at a high-growth technology company

• Deep expertise in financial modeling — you can build a three-statement model from scratch and pressure-test assumptions with confidence

• Experience owning or significantly contributing to an annual planning cycle and long-range financial planning process

• Strong understanding of SaaS metrics and what drives revenue, cost, and efficiency in a software business

• Exceptional communicator — you can synthesize complex financial information into clear narratives for executive and board audiences

• Experience partnering with G&A functions (particularly HR/People and Real Estate) is a strong plus

• Proficiency with financial planning tools (e.g., Pigment, Anaplan, Adaptive Insights, or similar) and advanced Excel/Google Sheets skills; experience with SQL is a plus

• A bias for building: you're excited to build processes and infrastructure from the ground up, not just maintain what's already there

• Low ego, high ownership — you thrive in collaborative environments and are comfortable getting into the details when needed

The salary range for this role is $224,000 - $280,000. The salary for this position is determined based on a variety of job-related factors that may include location, relevant experience, education, or particular skills and expertise.
