Role
Who you are
- You are a hands-on, senior individual contributor who prefers doing the work end-to-end from discovery to production and thrives on turning complex commercial problems into reliable data products
- If you’re excited about this role but your experience doesn’t perfectly align with the job description, we encourage you to apply anyway. You might just be who we’re looking for — either for this role, or perhaps another
- Extensive experience in an analytical role supporting Sales, Finance, Marketing or GTM teams. Ideally in a B2B SaaS environment
- Dbt & BigQuery: commercial experience developing DBT models on top of a modern data warehouse such as BigQuery or Snowflake
- Expert SQL: advanced query design, optimisation, and building reusable analytical datasets
- Modern BI: hands-on experience with a modern BI platform with integrated semantic layer (e.g Omni, Looker, Thoughtspot)
- Python for analysis: practical experience with pandas/numpy and notebook-based workflows for LTV, attribution, simulations and experimentation analysis
- Domain expertise: deep, practical knowledge in one or more of the following functions & platforms: CRM (e.g. SalesForce), marketing (e.g. Hubspot), Finance, Sales
- Metric design & governance: owns semantic models and definitions that govern a single source of truth for core business metrics such as ARR/NRR/churn/LTV/CAC. Bonus points if you have implemented tests or validation to ensure those metrics can be trusted across all teams
- Strong communicator: can translate complex analysis into concise narratives for executives and operators and drive decisions through structured storytelling
- Bias for impact: prioritises work that improves forecast accuracy, reduces CAC, drives retention, or materially accelerates time-to-insight
What the job involves
- As 9fin’s first dedicated functional analytics hire you will partner across Finance, GTM (Sales + Sales Ops), Marketing and Operations. Working closely with 2 product analysts and 3 analytics engineers, you will turn CRM, finance and marketing data into decision-grade insights that move revenue, retention and unit economics metrics
- Design & own core datasets (dbt → BigQuery). Author and maintain dbt models, tests, docs and macros that produce production tables for accounts, opportunities, bookings, revenue recognition, customer events and marketing touchpoints
- Commercial performance & forecasting. Lead the development of commercial reports and analyses such as: bookings vs. pipeline reporting, quota attainment, ARR/MRR/NRR rollups, cohort retention, churn drivers, renewal/expansion analysis and short-term forecasting used in leadership reviews
- Acquisition & LTV analytics. Lead the expansion of our marketing and acquisition analyses including channel attribution, CAC, funnel conversion, cohort LTV and payback models
- Operational enablement & automation. Lead discovery with operational teams to define acceptance criteria and ROI. Develop alerts, workflows and self-serve tools that reduce manual effort, improve SLA attainment and surface leading indicators for operational action
- Dashboards and reporting. Design and ship executive and operational dashboards in Omni, create self-serve views, alerts and operational reports used by Sales, Finance and Marketing teams
- Metric governance & QA. Define and surface core business metrics (ARR, NRR, churn, LTV, CAC), and own the semantic layer so that stakeholders trust the numbers
- Ad-hoc, high-impact analysis. Rapidly investigate pricing, segmentation, funnel leaks, win/loss, and experiment outcomes; translate results into clear operational recommendations
- Enablement & documentation. Create playbooks, present findings to senior stakeholders, run training sessions as required

Our take
9fin’s initial aim was to solve the problem of extracting data out of financial documents. It quickly turned to AI, where computer vision tools can be deployed to find key financial data points - like a company’s sales and revenue - quickly and automatically.
Its AI tools learn to understand the complicated legal clauses in contracts, automating a lot of the manual work that’s usually involved in this space. The result is a platform that debt capital market professionals can use to make quicker and better investment decisions.
9fin is used by leading banks, hedge funds and asset managers around the world - with a 100% deal prediction accuracy record under its belt, it’s easy to understand why. The company has seen significant investment, the most recent of which will support the scaling of its team and expansion of its product into new asset classes, as well as helping it to grow its presence in the US.

Company values
- Technology doesn't serve the business. Technology is the business: Technology and business are not independent; they are one and the same. We’ve met CEOs who don’t know what language their code is written in and CTOs who don’t know who the customers are. That’s not OK
- Talent trumps experience: We judge people by the quality of their ideas, not the duration of their employment. We’d rather work with people who have spent 12 months being awesome than those who have spent 3 years being average
- Don't know? Say so: Ignorance is only a weakness when you don’t admit it. We’ve seen lots of people waste hours of productivity because they were too afraid to ask for help
- Ship early and often: It’s impossible to design a truly awesome product without customer feedback
- Never settle: The product might have shipped, but it’s never perfect. If we can’t find ways to improve we just aren’t looking hard enough
- Diversity: We don’t discriminate. As well as being an end in itself, varied backgrounds and cultures bring new perspectives and stop group think
- Have an opinion: No decision is off limits to being challenged. Disagreement is healthy, it shows you care
- Beautiful simplicity: If it’s not easy to use, then it’s broken. Consumer applications relentlessly focus on the user with beautiful interfaces and snazzy graphics. There’s no reason why B2B can’t be just as good
- Make time for others: Everyone is busy. But taking 5-10 minutes out of your day to grab a coffee with a colleague who needs advice or help is not too much to ask
- Overcommunicate: Don’t leave people in the dark. It’s better to receive a 10 second note saying “Super busy, but I’ll get to it.” than radio silence
- Family & health come first: No customer or job matters more than family and your health
