About the role

Squarespace is looking for a Manager, Financial Systems to lead cross-functional delivery, partner with Finance leadership, and independently drive solutions across multiple critical Finance processes. Our Financial Systems team runs and evolves Finance so the function operates with less manual effort, stronger controls, and better data, enabling Finance to scale with the company. We are a small, hands-on, high-trust team where everyone owns platforms end to end and is the go-to for their systems across Finance.

What they're looking for

  • 8+ years of experience in financial systems, including 3+ years leading a team or function, with a track record of delivering complex, cross-functional initiatives
  • Hands-on experience administering financial systems — managing configurations, integrations, and platform health across a multi-tool environment
  • Demonstrated ability to manage service delivery across competing priorities, keeping partners informed and execution on track without heavy process overhead
  • Experience leading people through ambiguity: setting direction, delegating clearly, and building a team that brings solutions rather than problems
  • Proven ability to drive alignment across Finance, Engineering, and IT partners on system decisions with meaningful downstream impact
