About the Role

As a Financial Analyst at Degreed, you'll own one of the Finance team's most cross-functional and high-visibility processes — end-to-end commission management — while also contributing to FP&A functions that directly inform executive and board-level decisions.

You'll work closely with Sales, RevOps, and Accounting across global regions, and play an active role in how the Finance team adopts AI and automation to work smarter. This is a role with real scope and visibility from day one, with a clear path toward process ownership and strategic contribution.

Key Skills

• SaaS finance fundamentals : 2–5 years of experience in FP&A, commissions, or a related corporate finance role — with working knowledge of recurring revenue mechanics and ARR.
• Commission process ownership : ability to manage end-to-end commission workflows with precision — verifying deal accuracy, calculating payments, and communicating terms clearly to sales teams.
• Data analysis and interpretation : comfortable collecting, analyzing, and presenting financial data to support recommendations and decision-making.
• Attention to detail : demonstrated commitment to process accuracy and error minimization in recurring and ad hoc reporting.
• Excel and PowerPoint proficiency : able to build models, reports, and dashboards that communicate financial insights clearly to both technical and non-technical audiences.
• Time management and autonomy : track record of meeting deadlines across recurring and ad hoc workstreams with minimal supervision.
• Cross-functional communication : able to work effectively with Sales, RevOps, and Accounting across time zones and communicate complex financial concepts in accessible terms.
• Ability to leverage AI tools and technologies : practical experience using AI to summarize, analyze, or automate finance workflows — with genuine interest in expanding that practice within FP&A and commissions processes.
