Role
Who you are
- This is an ideal role for someone who can punch above their weight, thrives in ambiguity, and is excited to own and continuously improve the company’s financial engine as a highly strategic lever of long-term success
- 6- 10 years of experience in finance, FP&A, or strategic finance roles, including experience in a high-growth B2B SaaS company (Series A–D preferred)
- Prior experience in a lean start-up environment, with the ability to operate with high ownership and limited resources
- Exceptional financial modeling skills (advanced Excel) with the ability to quickly translate business questions into structured models and scenarios
- Strong experience with forecasting, budgeting, and variance analysis, with a clear grasp of how to connect sales forecasts to financial plans
- Proven ability to connect financial modeling with accounting outputs, ensuring forecasts align with actuals without owning day-to-day accounting
- Some exposure to accounting concepts (GAAP, revenue recognition, etc.) preferred
- Experience partnering closely with cross-functional teams (especially Sales/RevOps) to improve forecasting accuracy and drive better decision-making
- Background in a top-tier investment banking analyst program or equivalent rigorous finance training strongly preferred
- Exposure to fundraising, investor expectations, or capital planning, with an understanding of how financials are evaluated by investors
- 1- 2+ years of leadership or functional ownership experience, with the ability to manage and develop a small team
- Strong communication skills, with the ability to translate complex financial concepts into clear insights for leadership
- Highly curious, proactive, and detail-oriented, with a willingness to punch above your weight and grow quickly
- Interest in and experience with leveraging AI tools to improve finance workflows, automation, and scalability
- Don’t meet every requirement? Studies have shown that women, communities of color and historically underrepresented talent are less likely to apply to jobs unless they meet every single qualification
- At Craft, we are dedicated to building a diverse, inclusive and authentic workplace, so if you’re excited about this role but your past experience doesn’t align perfectly with every qualification in the job description, we strongly encourage you to apply. You may be just the right candidate for this or other roles!

Our take
Maintaining a seamless supply chain is essential to the success of most businesses, with procurement teams being responsible for sourcing new suppliers, analysing inventory data, and generating forecasts. However, analysing such data requires the repetitive and specialist work of data engineers for both parties, making the sourcing process time-consuming.
Craft.co provides a procurement and supply chain analytics platform, integrating with other supply chain platforms to track inventories and produce forecasts. The platform allows users to save and organise thousands of suppliers in a portfolio, and source new suppliers in minutes based on over 450 data points, leveraging automatic insights to assess for risk and ensure requirements are met.
The main challenge Craft.co will face is the range of AI-driven supply chain analytics platforms appearing on the market, but the company uniquely combines such technology with a real-time analytics-driven procurement marketplace. Furthermore, Craft.co's 2023 round of funding will help it to rocket-boost its new focus on analytic, cloud-based collaboration, and management workflow capabilities.
