Since our founding, we’ve delivered over $1 billion in funding to more than 1 million customers and saved them over $500 million. At Possible, we’re building a new kind of consumer finance company, one that helps people stay out of debt rather than profit from keeping them in it.
About the RoleStrategic Finance at Possible sits at the intersection of three horizons: the recurring FP&A rigor that keeps the business running, near-term collaboration and modeling that shapes upcoming product and capital decisions, and long-term strategy that sets our 3–5 year path. The Sr. Strategic Finance Manager owns this full range - acting as both a hands-on expert in our core forecasting and reporting processes and the person actively automating that work, so that the function truly scales in strategic focus. This is a senior, high-visibility role contributing as a finance team leader with regular exposure to the executive team and Board.
ResponsibilitiesOwn and continuously improve core forecasting, budgeting, and variance-analysis processes, including recurring deliverables like consolidated flash and product level forecasting, KPI tracking, headcount and opex BvA reporting, and ensuring the accuracy and functionality of the consolidated financial model - while actively automating this work using AI tools, SQL, and data platforms (e.g., Databricks and Sigma) to cut cycle time and manual error
Own quarterly Board reporting materials and monthly business reviews, translating dense data into clear, decision-ready narratives for cross-departmental team leads, executives, and the Board
Build and enhance financial models that quantify the impact of near-term business decisions - new product launches, pricing changes, and major capital structure events
Partner with the Treasury and Capital Markets team on debt and equity financing decisions, liquidity and covenant analysis, enterprise value improvements, and investment evaluation
Lead cross-functional financial analysis for new product initiatives, translating test design, desired outcomes, unit economics, and revenue-recognition implications into a clear financial picture in partnership with Product, Credit/Underwriting, Marketing, Accounting, and Business Operations
Run scenario and sensitivity analyses to help identify viable strategic paths to explore, collaborating with executive leadership on direction and Business Operations on the underlying financial impact - translating findings into clear, actionable recommendations for senior leadership
Maintain finance documentation and playbooks, specifically leveraging AI and other tools, so recurring processes stay scalable and increasingly automated, freeing time for higher-impact strategic work
5+ years of FP&A, corporate finance, transaction advisory, private equity, or investment banking experience; fintech and/or growth-stage company experience strongly preferred
Proven experience building and maintaining sophisticated, multi-scenario financial models spanning the three financial statements (expertise in how all three statements interact is a must), capital structure, and debt instruments
Demonstrated success automating recurring finance workflows with AI tools, SQL, and/or data platforms (e.g., Databricks) — this role is expected to actively drive AI adoption within the finance function, not just use existing tools
Comfortable operating across time horizons: rigorous ownership of day-to-day forecasting and reporting alongside meaningful contribution to multi-year strategic planning
Excel expert; hands-on SQL or direct data-querying experience strongly preferred
Strong executive presence — able to distill complex analysis into crisp, Board-ready narratives and influence senior stakeholders
Self-directed, intellectually curious strategic problem solver with outstanding written/verbal communication skills, strong cross-functional collaboration (Accounting, Treasury, Product, executive leadership), and the ability to earn influence without authority
This is a Hybrid position. We work in our centrally located office in downtown Seattle three days a week (M, T, and Th).

Possible Finance Insights
What We Do
Possible Finance is on a mission to make financial health possible for everyone. We build products for the millions of Americans who live paycheck to paycheck, face unpredictable income, or can't get a fair shot from traditional banks and credit systems — people who are routinely ignored or penalized by mainstream financial institutions. That's why our products are designed differently. We offer a growing suite of short-term and installment credit options with clear terms, flexible repayment, and no predatory fees. And because a credit score alone doesn't tell the full story, we underwrite using cash-flow and behavioral data, giving people access to credit when others won't. We take a compliance-forward approach to everything we build. In a highly scrutinized industry where many competitors struggle or shut down, designing products that protect customers and hold up to regulatory standards isn't a constraint. It's how we earn trust and stay in the game long-term. Since founding in 2017 in Seattle, we've served over 1.5 million customers and funded more than $1 billion in loans. And we're just getting started — expanding our products, serving more customers, and pushing further every day to end the debt cycle and help more people unlock economic mobility. Come build with a team of mission-driven colleagues and do the most meaningful work of your career.
Why Work With Us
Traditional financial institutions weren't built for the customers we serve — and it shows. Possible was created with those customers in mind: fair underwriting, transparent products, and a genuine commitment to their financial wellbeing. We believe access to credit shouldn't be limited to a select few — and we're actually doing something about it.
