Within the Finance organization, you'll support Sales Finance Managers, our Senior Manager of Sales Finance, Director of Sales Finance, and Senior Sales & XFN Stakeholders on aspects related to revenue forecasting, insights, and goal-setting. You will partner with Sales leaders on ideas to improve their P&L. This includes identifying underlying trends and consulting on strategic business decisions. Your role is to translate complex data into actionable insights, which means you can focus on the details but also solve big-picture challenges. You'll have the opportunity to put your fingerprints on a unique and dynamic digital ads platform with global reach.

The Sales Finance team's mandate is to optimize value creation for Pinners, advertisers, and Pinterest through disciplined business leadership and seamless financial execution. We do this by developing financial forecasts, providing decision support through analyses, generating internal reports, monitoring key performance indicators, and scaling financial processes.

Responsibilities:

• Support revenue and performance management of key sales verticals.
• Build sophisticated models that will deliver cutting-edge insights and improve revenue forecasting.
• Own delivery of financial reporting to Pinterest executives (e.g. Director of Sales Finance, CFO as well as Sales leaders including the CRO and their direct reports).
• Create dashboards and models to scale monitoring of key performance indicators and tools to drive strategic insight.
• Support other strategic programs within Pinterest like agencies, resellers, and partnerships with advertisers.
• Leverage your superior financial modeling skills in order to deliver ad hoc analyses.

Requirements:

• Bachelor's degree in a relevant field, such as Accounting, Finance, Economics, or Business or 3+ years of experience in Sales Finance, Corporate Finance, FP&A, Investment Banking, or other quantitative fields.
• Exceptional spreadsheet skills with experience creating financial models and dashboards.
• Excellent verbal and written communication as well as presentation skills (Google Slides).
• Ability to multi-task and deliver against tight timelines.
• Basic SQL experience is preferred, but not required.

Relocation and Work Arrangements:

• This position is not eligible for relocation assistance. Visit our PinFlex page to learn more about our working model.
• We let the type of work you do guide the collaboration style. That means we are not always working in an office, but we continue to gather for key moments of collaboration and connection.
• This role will need to be in the office for in-person collaboration 1-2 times/quarter and therefore can be situated anywhere in the country.
