Strategic Finance Manager

About Possible

We're on a mission to end the debt cycle, and help our customers and their communities unlock economic mobility for generations to come. Join the team that's making our goal a reality.

As a Public Benefit Corporation, our mission and responsibility are to help communities unlock economic mobility, with affordable credit products designed to improve financial health.

Since our founding, we've delivered over $1 billion in funding to more than 1 million customers and saved them over $500 million. At Possible, we're building a new kind of consumer finance company, one that helps people stay out of debt rather than profit from keeping them in it.

About the Role

Strategic Finance at Possible sits at the intersection of three horizons: the recurring FP&A rigor that keeps the business running, near-term modeling that shapes upcoming product and capital decisions, and long-term strategy that sets our 3 to 5 year path. The Sr. Strategic Finance Manager owns this full range, starting by using AI to rebuild our core financial models and automate the manual side of FP&A. As that work becomes faster and more self-sustaining, this person will move deeper into the areas that shape Possible's financial future, including capital markets and debt strategy alongside Treasury, plus Board-level scenario planning. This is a senior, high-visibility role contributing as a finance team leader with regular exposure to the executive team and Board.

Responsibilities

• Own and continuously improve core forecasting, budgeting, and variance-analysis processes, including recurring deliverables like consolidated flash and product level forecasting, KPI tracking, headcount and opex BvA reporting, and ensuring the accuracy and functionality of the consolidated financial model, while actively automating this work using AI tools, SQL, and data platforms (e.g., Databricks and Sigma) to cut cycle time and manual error

• Own quarterly Board reporting materials and monthly business reviews, translating dense data into clear, decision-ready narratives for cross-departmental team leads, executives, and the Board

• Build and enhance financial models that quantify the impact of near-term business decisions, new product launches, pricing changes, and major capital structure events

• Partner with the Treasury and Capital Markets team on debt and equity financing decisions, liquidity and covenant analysis, enterprise value improvements, and investment evaluation

• Lead cross-functional financial analysis for new product initiatives, translating test design, desired outcomes, unit economics, and revenue-recognition implications into a clear financial picture in partnership with Product, Credit/Underwriting, Marketing, Accounting, and Business Operations

• Run scenario and sensitivity analyses to help identify viable strategic paths to explore, collaborating with executive leadership on direction and Business Operations on the underlying financial impact, translating findings into clear, actionable recommendations for senior leadership

• Maintain finance documentation and playbooks, specifically leveraging AI and other tools, so recurring processes stay scalable and increasingly automated, freeing time for higher-impact strategic work

Requirements

• Background in investment banking, transaction advisory, or private equity strongly preferred; FP&A or corporate finance backgrounds also considered, ideally from a startup or other growth-stage environment

• Deep expertise building three-statement financial models with a real grasp of how the statements interact; comfort with capital structure and debt instruments

• A track record of using AI to build and rebuild financial models and automate the manual side of FP&A. Excel fluency is assumed, not the differentiator; what matters is directing AI to do the modeling work so you can spend your time on the analysis and judgment behind it

• Ready to grow into deeper strategic territory, including capital markets and debt, as automation frees up capacity

• Strong executive presence; able to distill complex analysis into clear, Board-ready narratives

• Self-directed and intellectually curious, with strong cross-functional collaboration across Accounting, Treasury, Product, and executive leadership
