  • Advanced analytical skills, high attention to detail, and comfort “rolling up your sleeves” in ambiguous, unstructured environments.
  • Strong written, verbal, and interpersonal communication skills, including the ability to bring numbers to life for non-finance audiences.
  • Ability to navigate data challenges and drive improvements with limited existing playbooks.
  • A collaborative, curious, and growth-focused mindset, ready to make a meaningful impact on Culture Amp’s financial evolution.
  • Confidence using Sheets/Excel (G-suite), and ability to refine and automate routine processes.
  • (Bonus points for) Experience with Netsuite, and/or Workday Adaptive; experience with reporting and data visualization tools a plus.
  • (Bonus points for) CPA or CA qualification; other relevant credentials considered.
  • (Bonus points for) Fluency with key SaaS operating metrics (e.g. ARR, CAC, LTV, churn, NRR), data-driven thinking, and financial scenario modelling.

You are

  • Resilient and adaptable, comfortable working with ambiguity and across competing priorities.
  • Passionate about continuous improvement, team culture, and doing what’s right for the business.
  • A strong communicator, analytical thinker, and confident influencer.
