What the job involves
- We are looking for a data-driven and operationally minded Senior Strategic Financial Analyst to serve as a key architect of our financial planning and reporting infrastructure
- In this high-visibility role, you will go beyond traditional reporting to act as a strategic partner to our GTM, R&D, and Operations leaders
- You will not only track the numbers but also define how we track them—bridging the gap between our CRM (Salesforce) and Finance systems to ensure data integrity
- If you are a proactive problem-solver with 5+ years of experience who loves building models, optimizing deal structures, and uncovering insights that drive revenue efficiency, we want to hear from you
- KPI Definition: Design and maintain a comprehensive set of SaaS metrics (e.g., ARR, NRR, CAC, LTV, Magic Number) to track performance across Revenue, R&D, and Support
- Financial Modeling: Build and refine sophisticated financial models to analyze revenue streams, customer segmentation, pricing strategies, and sales team productivity
- FP&A Leadership: Partner with the VP of Finance to drive the annual budgeting and quarterly forecasting process, incorporating real-time insights from operational data

- Compensation Analysis: Analyze the ROI of sales compensation plans and GTM organizational structure to ensure alignment with company growth targets
- Ad-Hoc Strategy: Conduct deep-dive analyses on specific business questions (e.g., new market entry, product margin analysis) to support executive decision-making
- CRM to Finance Integration: Spearhead the integration between GTM systems (Salesforce) and financial systems (ERP/Planning tools)
- Data Governance: Define the "source of truth" for sales data. Implement quality controls to ensure the accurate flow of booking and revenue data into financial reporting
- Process Engineering: Develop standardized operating procedures (SOPs) for financial analysis to move the department from ad-hoc reporting to scalable, automated frameworks
Our take
As use of the internet rises, so too does the opportunity for fraud - with criminals exploiting the gaps that come with novel digital environments. DataVisor provides a fraud detection solution that leverages machine learning to identify threats. This helps to overcome the security gap caused by the speed at which today’s digital fraudsters evolve.
Traditional fraud solutions were not designed to handle digital data, and are ill-equipped to deal with quickly changing environments. By employing advanced ML, DataVisor can identify patterns which suggest fraudulent behaviour, allowing organisations to respond immediately and prevent losses before they happen.
Another problem has been that, in the name of security, systems might delay good customers from accessing services. With DataVisor, however, this becomes a non-issue, as the pattern of a non-malicious user can also be identified with speed.
DataVisor has seen considerable investment that has fuelled its continued expansion. It also boasts an impressive list of customers and partnerships. For example, a partnership with Equifax allowed it to extend it analytics and fraud detection capabilities. It has also launched the industry’s first unified, AI-powered SAR filing solution.
