Why This Opportunity Stands Out

A private equity–backed healthcare technology organization is building out a Strategic Finance function from the ground up, and this Senior Manager of Strategic Finance role sits at the center of that growth. This is not a traditional FP&A role—it’s a high-visibility, project-driven position focused on strategy, value creation, and executive decision support.

What makes this opportunity compelling:

Ground-floor opportunity to help shape processes, frameworks, and strategic priorities
Direct exposure to VP-level leadership and the executive team
Fully remote flexibility with optional in-person collaboration
PE-backed organization experiencing ~30% year-over-year organic growth
Work centered on strategic initiatives, not recurring budget maintenance

This role is ideal for a Senior Manager of Strategic Finance who wants to expand beyond traditional finance into enterprise-level problem solving and leadership.

Key Responsibilities of the Senior Manager of Strategic Finance

Lead project-based financial analyses, including business cases, scenario modeling, and value-creation initiatives
Partner cross-functionally with operations, product, technology, and executive leadership to support strategic decisions
Build and maintain financial models that support growth initiatives, investments, and operational improvements
Develop tools, dashboards, and reporting that improve visibility into business performance
Own and drive strategic projects independently while adapting to evolving business priorities

Qualifications for the Senior Manager of Strategic Finance

6+ years of experience in strategic finance, consulting, investment banking, corporate development, or PE operations
Advanced financial modeling and analytical skills with strong business judgment
Proven ability to communicate insights clearly and influence senior stakeholders

This Senior Manager of Strategic Finance Role Is Ideal For Someone Who

Seeks executive exposure and the opportunity to shape strategy in a growing organization

Compensation: $130,000 – $150,000+ plus Bonus
