How we will deliver success together:

As a Finance Manager, Strategic Finance, you will own the financial backbone of Shippo: the full company P&L, the annual operating plan, monthly C-level reporting, and board-level financial materials. This is not a support role. You will be the primary financial operator for a high-growth logistics technology company, accountable for the numbers that the CEO, CFO, and Board rely on.

This role carries meaningful executive exposure. You will report directly to the VP of Strategic Finance and have a skip-level relationship with the CFO, meaning your work will be seen, challenged, and relied upon at the top of the organization. You will produce the quarterly Board of Directors finance addendum, present financials in monthly leadership reviews, and be a trusted voice in the room when the numbers matter most. For the right person, this is a fast path to genuine strategic influence.

You will work directly with the CFO (as your skip level), and partner with Accounting, People Ops, and Engineering, and the full leadership team. The right person for this role is a strong finance operator who thrives on ownership, thinks commercially, and isn't satisfied just reporting the numbers - they want to understand them, improve them, and communicate them to decision-makers who act on them.
