We’re looking for a Director of Strategic Finance — a sharp, proactive operator who can blend analytical depth with strategic intuition. Reporting to the VP, Chief of Staff, you’ll be a key business partner to leadership, steering financial planning, modeling, and decision-making as we scale
This isn’t a back-office role. You’ll be hands‑on in shaping company strategy, owning the models that drive our growth decisions, and working cross‑functionally to turn insights into impact. You’ll have significant autonomy and visibility — influencing how we allocate resources, evaluate opportunities, and evolve as a business
If you thrive in fast‑paced, high‑growth environments and love connecting numbers to narrative, you’ll feel right at home here
Drive strategic planning: Own financial forecasting, long‑term modeling, and scenario planning to guide Thesis’s next stage of growth
Be the connective tissue: Partner with the Chief of Staff and exec team to align resources with company priorities, OKRs, and expansion plans
Translate data into strategy: Build actionable insights that connect financial outcomes to key drivers like CAC, LTV, and contribution margin
Evaluate new opportunities: Assess new channels, partnerships, and products with rigorous, ROI‑focused scenario analysis
Own the metrics: Drive external and internal Communications via investor decks, board materials, and internal updates that tie data to our strategic narrative
Build scalable systems: Design dashboards and analytical frameworks that make financial performance transparent across teams
Improve profitability: Identify and pull levers that enhance margins, unit economics, and operational efficiency
Collaborate and help drive decisions cross‑functionally: Work closely with Marketing, Growth, Ops, Product and HR to ensure accountability and financial clarity
Lead key initiatives: Support special projects like pricing optimization, fundraising prep, or retail expansion
Uplevel finance operations: Streamline reporting cadences, month‑end close, and data integrity across our tools and systems
Partner externally: Manage relationships with accountants, tax advisors, and finance vendors to keep us compliant and agile. Partner with our external bookkeeper to facilitate a timely, efficient and accurate month‑end close. Collaborate with external tax accountants to manage Thesis’s federal and state tax obligations
5–7+ years of experience in strategic finance, FP&A, investment banking, private equity, or consulting — ideally with exposure to DTC, consumer, or healthcare / medtech
Proven ability to build and maintain complex models that drive clarity and confidence in decision‑making
A bias toward action: You don’t wait for direction; you identify problems, propose solutions, and execute
Deep understanding of unit economics, cohort analysis, and customer lifetime value dynamics
Above all — you’re curious, driven, and motivated by impact
Exceptional analytical and communication skills — you can turn data into a compelling story that drives action
Proficiency with modern finance and analytics tools (Looker, SQL, Brex, BILL.com, NetSuite, or similar)
Comfort operating in fast‑paced, ambiguous environments where things change — and you help bring order to the chaos
