We are looking for a Corporate Finance Manager to join our growing Finance team! In this role, you will partner with the Director of Corporate Finance, VP of Finance on consolidations, opex, balance sheet and cash flow forecasting, internal business reviews, external board reporting, and ad hoc analyses.

Reporting to the Director of Corporate Finance, you will contribute to financial reporting delivered to executive leadership and other stakeholders including our board and investors. The role operates with meaningful autonomy: you frame problems yourself, build the mechanisms that keep budgets and forecasts honest, and bring recommendations rather than questions, often where no template or precedent exists yet. Strong candidates come from FP&A; and corporate finance, and also from finance business partnering, investment banking, private equity, consulting, strategic finance or accounting, as long as you are fluent in financial statements and can turn numbers into a story.

Work experience: 5+ years of progressive experience in FP&A;, corporate finance, finance business partnering, strategic finance, investment banking, private equity, consulting, accounting or a related analytical role, with Manager-level ownership or the equivalent scope, and a strong understanding of financial statements. You have owned a recurring deliverable for a senior audience end to end across multiple cycles (an exec or board package, a monthly reporting pack, a client or deal model), and you have built or materially rebuilt a process or model from the ground up rather than only operated one.

Fluency in financial statements and how they connect, including balance sheet and cash flow mechanics. Advanced analytical and modeling skills, including building models from the ground up and working with large, detailed datasets. Advanced Excel or Google Sheets and strong slide-building skills.

You distill complex analyses into clear, concise insights and recommendations for executive and board audiences, tell the story behind the numbers, and build effective working relationships with leaders outside Finance.

Able to take an ambiguous problem, frame it, set priorities, and drive the work forward in the absence of templates or clear precedent. Exceptional accuracy and quality control: When you hand something over as ready, it is ready: tied to source, checked against house style, and reviewed by you first, so your manager’s pass is the last check rather than the first. Surfaces risks early, keeps stakeholders informed without being prompted, manages their own timelines, and delivers on commitments without needing to be chased.



Hands‑on curiosity and demonstrated use of AI tools in finance workflows: Has concrete, specific examples of using AI (Claude, ChatGPT, Copilot, or similar) to automate reporting, accelerate analysis, improve modeling, or scale deliverables. You are accountable for every number and sentence in your deliverable regardless of which tool produced it, and you never hand over AI output you have not read and verified.

Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, Business or another quantitative field.

Planning systems (Netsuite Planning and Budgeting, Oracle Hyperion, Anaplan, Adaptive), SQL or BI tools; experience improving or automating reporting and planning processes; experience at both public and high‑growth private companies; MBA or CPA.

Own the execution of our monthly, quarterly, and annual FP&A; processes, including the forecast calendar, key milestones, and long‑term financial modeling, driving these cycles independently end to end.

Develop deep understanding of the Babylist business model and key levers in our business — build genuine business curiosity and fluency in how we make money, what drives growth and margin, and where the risks live. Contribute to executive and board of directors presentation materials on business performance and strategic business decisions — preparing analyses, drafting slides, and owning the accuracy of underlying data.

Prepare consolidated income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow models. Analyze actual to expected performance with rigorous variance commentary grounded in data, not guesswork.

Ensure that our short, medium, and long range financial plans are built and delivered as part of a rigorous and team-oriented process.

Own and improve the total company opex budgeting process (who requests, who approves, who loads, how it is documented) at the GL and department level, in partnership with department heads, Accounting, and the People team on headcount planning. Perform ad‑hoc reporting and analysis as required, proactively surfacing insights and risks to the Director of Corporate Finance, VP of Finance, CFO, and business partners.

Identify and implement AI‑enabled automation across FP&A; workflows — actively experiment with AI tools to reduce manual effort on reporting, modeling, variance analysis,



and deck production, and share learnings across the Finance team. Take pride in your work and operate with a strong accuracy and quality control mindset — building review checkpoints, reconciliations, and self‑QC habits into every deliverable before it leaves your desk.

Your starting salary will be based on your location, experience, and qualifications, with increases over time tied to performance, role growth, and internal pay equity.
