Director, Strategic Finance at whatnot

This role is designed for a high-performing finance leader with 5–8+ years of experience, ideally blending "Big 3" consulting or investment banking with high-growth startup leadership. You should be a financial modeling expert who doesn't just crunch numbers but translates them into go-to-market strategies. While the title is Director, the role is highly "hands-on," requiring proficiency in SQL and the ability to influence C-suite stakeholders across Sales, Product, and Marketing. The compensation is a major standout, ranging from $250k to $335k plus equity in a top-tier "unicorn" marketplace. Despite being a leadership position, the culture emphasizes a "low ego" approach and a "dogfooding" perk where you are paid to buy and sell on the platform. The role offers a hybrid balance; you must live near the LA, NY, or SF hubs for in-person collaboration while enjoying a robust suite of remote-work and wellness allowances. **You might be a good fit if you:** * Thrive in "ambiguous" environments where you have to build KPIs and frameworks from scratch. * Have deep experience with two-sided marketplaces or e-commerce business models. * Can pivot instantly from writing SQL queries to presenting strategic insights to executives. * Are passionate about creator communities and the future of live-streamed commerce.
