Description
Who We Are
Spot & Tango is an innovative pet health & wellness brand that delivers personalized meal plans on a subscription basis. Our recipes are developed by leading animal nutritionists and are made with only real, human-grade ingredients... and nothing artificial! We have lofty goals (to make every dog in the country healthier, and every pet parent happier!) and we are looking for the right people to help us get there. This is an exciting opportunity to join a VC-backed, high-growth, e-commerce startup and have an outsized impact in an extremely fast-paced environment. Plus, you get to think about dogs all day!
Who You Are
We're looking for a highly analytical and intellectually curious Senior Financial Analyst to join our growing Finance team. You have experience in investment banking, management consulting, private equity, venture capital, or within a high-performing corporate finance team in an operating role. You’ll have meaningful ownership, broad exposure across the business, and the chance to help build a best-in-class finance organization.
While this role has a strong foundation in financial planning and analysis, it extends well beyond traditional FP&A. You'll steward budgeting and forecasting for key functions, develop business cases for new initiatives, and drive high-impact strategic work, from capital allocation and pricing to customer acquisition strategy, fundraising support, long-range planning, and executive reporting; all in a fast-paced environment that rewards speed, rigor, and sound judgment.
You'll partner closely with leaders across Finance, Accounting, Marketing, Operations, Product, Customer Experience, Strategy, and the Executive Team to shape key business decisions. You'll build sophisticated financial models, evaluate strategic investments, influence resource allocation, and deliver the insights that guide the company's growth.
