Associate, Corporate Finance

Corporate Finance Professional

Zip is looking for a sharp, motivated finance professional to join our newly formed Corporate Finance team. This role is ideal for someone with a strong financial modeling foundation who wants to be close to the core of how a high-growth software company manages its finances — and who is excited to grow quickly in a fast-moving environment.

You'll work alongside the Director of Corporate Finance, with frequent exposure to senior leadership. You'll get your hands on the models and processes that drive Zip's planning, forecasting, and reporting — and over time, you'll take on increasing ownership and responsibility.

• Reporting & Insights

• G&A Finance Support

Qualifications

• 3-6 years of experience in FP&A, investment banking, private equity, management consulting, or a similar analytical finance role

• Familiarity with SaaS business models and metrics (ARR, churn, CAC, LTV, Rule of 40) is highly preferred

• Detail-oriented and highly organized — you take pride in accuracy and hold your work to a high standard

• Clear communicator, both in writing and in conversation — you know how to tailor your message to your audience

• Curious and proactive: you don't just answer the question asked — you dig into the 'why' and bring new insights to the table

• Experience with financial planning tools (e.g., Pigment, Anaplan, Adaptive Insights) and/or SQL is a plus

• Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, sometimes ambiguous startup environment where priorities can shift and you need to move quickly
