The Role

This is a high-impact individual contributor role that bridges Finance and data. You will be the primary owner of all quantitative inputs that drive Finance operations — from board and investor reporting to unit economics and budgeting. You will work directly in the data warehouse, own the Finance reporting calendar, and partner closely with Analytics, Finance Ops, and senior leadership.

The role is critical to how Finance operates at Fresha. You will not be producing reports in the background — you will be the person leadership turns to when they need a number, a model, or an answer.

What You'll Do

    Financial & Investor Reporting

    Own the data inputs for quarterly board packs, investor reports, and investor-related deliverables

    Prepare and maintain the reporting calendar for all external and internal Finance outputs

    Build and maintain partner, revenue, and gross profit retention schedules — GRR and NRR across any period

    Ensure all Finance inputs to Commercial Performance Update (CPU) decks are accurate, complete, and submitted on time

    Unit Economics & Modelling

    Own deal-level unit economics by country: forecast revenue, gross profit, and contribution margin

    Maintain and evolve the attribution model across Organic, Marketing, and Direct Sales channels

    Build and maintain cohort-level financial models, including CAC, LTV, and payback period

    Construct operating and financial models to evaluate strategic opportunities and present findings to senior stakeholders

    Finance Operations

    Provide Finance Ops with all required data extracts to support month-end close, reconciliations, and audits

    Maintain and update the financial model used for budgeting and forecasting; pull actuals and provide variance analysis

    Identify and flag data anomalies proactively before they surface in reporting

    Data & Analytics Partnership

    Work directly in the data warehouse to extract, validate, and maintain Finance-required datasets

    Partner with Data Engineering to ensure Finance metrics are correctly defined and available in the right tables

    Drive adoption of data-driven decision-making across commercial and Finance functions

What We're Looking For

    Essential

    4+ years in financial analysis, commercial finance, or a data-heavy strategy role at a high-growth technology company

    Direct experience supporting investor or board reporting - you understand what a board pack requires and why it matters

    Hands-on SQL skills: you can write your own queries, not just interpret other people's outputs

    Experience building unit economics models (CAC, LTV, payback, cohort analysis) from scratch

    Exposure to marketplace or SaaS business models and the metrics that matter (GMV, take rate, net revenue retention, partner economics)

    Strong attention to detail with ability to reconcile data across multiple sources and spot when something is off

    Comfortable presenting analysis directly to senior stakeholders - executive and director level

    Degree in Finance, Economics, or a related field

    Strongly Preferred

    Previous experience at a VC- or PE-backed tech company; familiarity with investor relations and the cadence of reporting obligations that come with institutional backing

    Python or equivalent for data manipulation and automation

    Good to Have

    Professional qualification: CFA, CMA, ACCA, or equivalent

    Experience with M&A or due diligence processes; familiarity with corporate documents
