Do you want to help guide financial planning, business operations, and strategic decision making at a Forbes Cloud 100 company? Come join the Finance, BizOps & Strategy (FBOS) team at Gusto. The FBOS team provides financial, operational, and strategic support at the corporate, departmental, and product level. The team’s mission is to define and defend the business model while accelerating Gusto’s growth. As part of the Emerging Finance team within FBOS, you’ll be the Finance, BizOps & Strategy Partner to Gusto’s developing and fast-growing Gusto Money Group, including our consumer and business-facing opportunities. A core philosophy in FBOS is that we are not here to merely forecast -- that is, to try to predict an indeterminate future -- we are here to help make it happen. We roll up our sleeves as partners and pitch in with operators as needed. You will drive key go-to-market operations and strategy support for Gusto Money Group, Gusto’s FinTech business. This is a high impact, high responsibility role. You’ll be a trusted thought partner and business advisor that leads key initiatives like monthly forecast reviews, long range planning, and pricing and business model recommendations. You’ll gain experience building operations in an emerging business unit and working cross-functionally to drive alignment to move the business forward as you scale existing and launch new FinTech products. Day-to-day responsibilities include: Financial Planning & Forecasting by managing operational revenue and expense models and supporting strategic planning, forecasting, and resource allocation; Management Reporting to support key corporate reporting requirements to the Board of Directors and Executive Team, including app-level OKR tracking, performance to plan, and budget vs. actual variance analysis; Strategic Partner role to drive operations and conduct key analyses and modeling to help leadership make sound and strategically aligned decisions, including leading forecast reviews, evaluating marketing efficiency, supporting new growth initiatives, revamping pricing and packaging, and evaluating third-party partnerships. Requirements include 4-6+ years of relevant work experience in corporate finance, investment banking, consulting, and/or business operations, with business and/or consumer banking experience required and FinTech, neo-banking, or lending unit economics preferred. A degree in a quantitative field is required. Technical skills include expertise in Excel and Google Sheets, ability to work with SQL, experience with enterprise tools like Asana and Pigment, and comfort with BI tools like Tableau. The role requires precision, discipline, strong time management, and a proactive, positive attitude. The company has offices in Denver, San Francisco, and New York City with expectations for in-office work 2-3 days per week depending on role. Remote work is partly allowed with requirements for a secure, reliable internet connection. Gusto is an equal opportunity employer committed to diversity and inclusion.
