Job description

SharkNinja is a global product design and technology company, with a diversified portfolio of 5-star rated lifestyle solutions that positively impact people’s lives in homes around the world. Powered by two trusted, global brands, Shark and Ninja, the company has a proven track record of bringing disruptive innovation to market, and developing one consumer product after another has allowed SharkNinja to enter multiple product categories, driving significant growth and market share gains. Headquartered in Needham, Massachusetts with more than 3,600+ associates, the company’s products are sold at key retailers, online and offline, and through distributors around the world.

About the Programme

At SharkNinja, we create products that positively impact people’s lives, and we do it fast. Our growth is powered by bold ideas, relentless innovation, and a team that refuses to settle for ordinary.

Our Finance Graduate Programme is your launchpad into a high-performance, high-growth global consumer business. Over three transformative years, you’ll rotate annually across key finance functions, from FP&A and commercial finance to operations, new product development, and strategic planning, while working toward your CIMA qualification with full support.

We’re looking for people with an outrageously extraordinary mindset, ambitious graduates who see finance not just as a function, but as a force for driving smarter, faster, sharper business decisions.

Year 1 – Build the Foundation

Start by developing a strong grounding in our core accounting and finance processes. You’ll gain hands‑on experience in one key transactional area, while building exposure to others. This is where you’ll learn how the fundamentals of accounting support every aspect of our global business and set the stage for more analytical and commercial experiences ahead.

Year 2 – Expand Your Impact

Broaden your perspective by stepping into commercial and operational finance. Partner with cross‑functional teams across product, marketing, and supply chain to turn financial data into actionable insights. This is your opportunity to understand what it means to be a trusted business partner in a fast‑moving, innovation‑driven environment.

Year 3 – Lead and Influence

Take ownership of a high‑impact project or rotation in areas such as strategic finance, transformation, or global operations. Work alongside senior leaders to shape the financial strategy behind SharkNinja’s next generation of category‑defining products and initiatives.

What Makes You Extraordinary

We’re not hiring for average, we’re hiring for energy, intellect, and audacity. You’re the kind of person who:

• Sees possibility where others see problems.
• Is endlessly curious and hungry to learn.
• Thinks analytically but acts boldly.
• Communicates with confidence and clarity.
• Wants to qualify as a Chartered Management Accountant (CIMA) while making a real commercial impact.
• Holds (or is on track for) a 2:1 or above in Finance, Accounting, Economics, Business, or a related degree.

What We Offer – Program Benefits

• Fully funded CIMA qualification with paid study leave and dedicated mentorship
• Structured rotations across key finance disciplines and business units
• Real responsibility from day one, your work will drive real business decisions
• Exposure to senior leadership and global project teams
• Competitive salary, performance‑based bonus, and exceptional benefits
• A culture that rewards speed, innovation, and unstoppable curiosity

Our Culture

At SharkNinja, we don’t just raise the bar—we push past it every single day. Our Outrageously Extraordinary mindset drives us to tackle the impossible, push boundaries, and deliver results that others only dream of. If you thrive on breaking out of your swim lane, you’ll be right at home.

What We Offer – Company Benefits

We offer competitive health insurance, retirement plans, paid time off, employee stock purchase options, wellness programs, SharkNinja product discounts, and more. We empower your personal and professional growth with high impact Learning Programs featuring bold voices redefining what’s possible. When you join, you’re not just part of a company—you’re part of an outrageously extraordinary community.

At SharkNinja, Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion are vital to our global success. Valuing each unique voice and blending all of our diverse skills strengthens SharkNinja’s innovation every day. We support ALL associates in bringing their authentic selves to work, making an impact, and having the opportunity for career acceleration.
