Job description

SeatGeek believes live events are powerful experiences that unite humans. With our technological savvy and fan-first attitude we’re simplifying and modernizing the ticketing industry.

By catering to both consumers and enterprises, we’re powering a new, open entertainment ecosystem where fans have effortless access to experiences, and teams, venues, and shows have seamless access to their audiences. Because everyone should expect more from ticketing.

The Strategic Finance Manager sits within the Financial Planning & Forecasting sub team, whose mission is to support and enable better financial planning and decision-making by leading forecasting processes across the business. The team consists of dedicated forecasting partners who support functions across SeatGeek by collaborating on and consolidating revenue and margin models for our Primary, Secondary, EMEA, and Inventory business lines. The team is responsible for monthly, quarterly, and long-range forecasting and budgeting; developing SeatGeek’s scenario planning capabilities; and supporting the Investor Relations team with guidance formulation. This role reports to our Sr. Manager, Strategic Finance. This is an individual contributor role managing a function rather than team members.

What you’ll do

• Develop and maintain models for our consensus driven forecasting process to inform in-quarter resource deployment decisions and to provide a preview of quarterly accounting close results
• Partner with the Commercial Performance, Account Management, and Analytics teams to budget and consolidate our existing client, integrated partnership, and non-integrated Secondary revenue lines
• Collaborate with the Demand team to understand and incorporate the impact of marketing spend and its ROI on our Secondary budget
• Develop scenario planning capabilities to allow SeatGeek to plan and prepare for a wide range of environments in the unpredictable live events business

What you have

• 6-8 years of progressive experience in FP&A, management consulting, or investment banking, with 5+ years of direct FP&A experience preferred
• Experience partnering with Analytics and Data Science teams to integrate data-driven forecasting into FP&A processes
• Experience partnering with Marketing teams and familiarity with Marketing concepts such as ROAS, CLV, incrementality, and CPC/RPC
• Mastery of financial modeling (3-statement, NPV, Cohort Modeling) and spreadsheet functionality
• Advanced understanding of relational databases and BI tool functionality
• Strong project management skills - you are capable of conceiving and executing projects independently, with minimal oversight from manager

Perks

• Equity stake
• Flexible work environment, allowing you to work as many days a week in the office as you’d like or 100% remotely
• A WFH stipend to support your home office setup
• Unlimited PTO
• Up to 16 weeks of fully-paid family leave
• 401(k) matching program
• Student loan support resources
• Health, vision, dental, and life insurance
• Up to $25k towards family building and reproductive health services
• Gender-affirming care support program
• $500 per year for wellness expenses
• Subscriptions to Headspace (meditation), Headspace Care (therapy), and One Medical
• $120 per month to spend on tickets to live events
• Annual subscription to Spotify, Apple Music, or Amazon music

The salary range for this role is $109,000 - $167,000 USD. Actual compensation packages within that range are based on a wide array of factors unique to each candidate, including but not limited to skill set, years and depth of experience, certifications, and specific location.
