Role
Who you are
- This role is perfect for a finance leader who has navigated both high-growth startup environments and larger public companies, and who’s excited by the opportunity to build and scale in a fast-paced, mission-driven fintech company
- Experience: 7+ years in finance, including experience at a high-growth startup and/or public company. Background in investment banking or consulting is a plus. Fintech, lending, or consumer subscription experience is highly valued
- Education: Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field. CPA or CFA certifications are a bonus
- Financial Expertise: Strong command of FP&A, budgeting, forecasting, unit economics (LTV:CAC, retention, ARPU), and GAAP
- Tools & Tech: Proficiency in Excel and PowerPoint. Experience with ERP systems and BI tools. Familiarity with SQL is a plus
- Communication Skills: Comfortable presenting complex financial information to diverse audiences, including senior leadership
- Leadership & Influence: Proven ability to lead projects, manage competing priorities, and influence cross-functional teams in high-growth settings
What the job involves
- Brigit is looking for a strategic and detail-oriented Senior Manager or Director of Finance to help steer our next phase of growth
- You’ll partner closely with senior leadership – including the VP of Finance and CEO – to shape financial strategy, lead forecasting and reporting, and drive insights that influence major business decisions
- This is a high-impact role with visibility at the executive and board level, offering meaningful opportunities for growth and leadership
- Financial Reporting & Insights: Lead monthly, quarterly, and annual reporting for Brigit and our parent company. Deliver clear, actionable insights to executive leadership through financial and unit economics analysis
- Forecasting & Budgeting: Own and evolve Brigit’s 3-statement and unit economic models. Drive budgeting and forecasting in close partnership with functional leads to ensure alignment with strategic goals
- Strategic Finance & Scenario Planning: Build models to evaluate new initiatives, investment opportunities, and business scenarios. Present recommendations that inform long-term planning and resource allocation
- Cash Flow & Capital Efficiency: Monitor cash flow and working capital. Provide guidance on optimizing liquidity and ensuring we deploy capital effectively to support sustainable growth
- Cross-Functional Partnership: Serve as a trusted finance partner to teams across the company – translating financial data into strategic decisions, and helping others understand the financial impact of their work
- Process Development: Design and implement scalable finance processes that grow with the business – especially around spend management and reporting automation
Our take
Brigit is an algorithm-based personal finance app that helps underserved financial customers maintain financial health. It offers a raft of protective services including cash bumps to fend off overdraft charges, budgeting tools, and interest-free emergency loans.
In spite of this financially-oriented spread, Brigit has no intention of expanding into neo-banking. This is smart, as it allows the company to focus on a broad range of banner services without stepping into the far more competitive digital banking sector. Brigit has successfully united these disparate features under a strong customer-forward and socially-impactful identity, which gives the company the freedom to expand its services in response to new banking trends without diluting its brand.
It means, too, that Brigit can complement new and legacy banking solutions, instead of competing for space. This careful positioning should shore Brigit up in a sector undergoing continual and swift change.
