Finance and Strategy Associate

About the role: Grüns is scaling fast, and looking to bring on the next Associate, Finance and Strategy team member. This role owns the operating cadence that keeps the business honest: monthly business reviews, variance analysis, budgeting, and the models leadership and investors actually trust. You'll work directly with our Head of Finance to take ownership of core financial infrastructure, freeing up senior bandwidth for the bigger strategic bets. If you want real ownership over the numbers that drive decisions (not just a seat building someone else's slides) this is that role. This role is part of our remote HQ! We have a fully remote, high-trust work environment, and we come together on a bi-annual basis for offsites where we connect IRL. We're looking for someone based in Pacific or Central time zones. In this role, you will: Own the Monthly Business Review and OKR process end to end, from model roll-forward to the room; Build and maintain financial models that support forecasting, budgeting, and ad hoc strategic decisions; Drive variance analysis on Opex and hold the business accountable to it; Lead and execute cross-functional initiatives that move the needle on profitability; Identify and refine the KPIs that tell us how the business is actually doing; Build core materials that are easy to update, so reporting gets faster over time, not slower.
