Rainforest is searching for a Strategic Finance Manager, reporting directly to the Head of Finance, and sitting with the CEO and COO for all key strategic decision-making.
We’re building our business a little differently, and we’re looking for someone who is excited by our particular vision: stay small and IPO. We want to get to IPO revenue, growth rates, and margin, while staying under 200 people. To do this, our core operating principle is ‘nail with people, scale with software.’ We expect every member of our team to build operational leverage not through hiring humans but through creativity, software and outside services.
We are building towards this ambitious outcome from a position of strength. We are cash-flow breakeven with money in the bank and stage-appropriate ARR. We have patented, differentiated and defensible core technology, and a huge market that has yet to be solved through software.

- Facilitate ad-hoc and cross-functional strategic and operational projects and execute on strategic projects independently and with Business leaders
- Analyze revenues, expenses, and monthly actual to ensure accuracy and perform variance analyses to ensure financial performance of the business
- Partner closely with accounting team to ensure deep understanding of financials and deliver accurate financial reporting
- Provide detailed analyses on trends that will assist in decision making and corporate plannin
Requirements:
- 4+ years experience in finance for a rapidly growing software company (ideally SaaS or a business with a subscription component), with clear title progression and outperformance at each level
- Ability to work independently, think creatively, manage multiple projects and deliver results in a fast-paced, cross-functional environment
- Experience presenting analysis and recommendations at executive & board levels
- Able to operate on multiple levels of abstraction, from strategy to execution, be business-minded and collaborative
