About the role
Capital is necessary in every business, but at Faire it serves as a core value proposition to our customers. The Finance & Strategy team ensures we have access to it and are spending it effectively, but also wears several other hats at Faire including strategic growth planning, company-wide performance management, and business analysis. As part of this team, you will help inform how Faire can optimally allocate capital in the form of customer benefits that translates to sustainable growth and customer loyalty.
What they're looking for

- Investor mindset: nose for value with a broad toolkit to reason about risk/reward
- Strong modeling muscle: able to build and stress-test financial models that reflect a point of view, not just spreadsheet theory
- Analytical rigor: synthesize information, decompose problems, and use data and logic to diagnose root causes—comfortable going deep on unit economics without losing the strategic question
- Excellent communication: credible, structured storytelling for executives and cross-functional partners, able to zoom-in and zoom-out between detail and narrative
- Cross-functional: track record building trust and influencing results alongside a variety of different stakeholder groups
