Role: Math, Money, and Marketing Extraordinaire / FP&A & BD / Business Generalist

Rather than making a job post asking for x years of experience, we’ve left this post and its salary range pretty broad. If you apply, we’ll see how you would fit into our organization and offer compensation accordingly. Minimal experience will lead to an offer on the lower end; killer experience/credentials will put you on the higher end.

Introduction

At Seasats we strive to make top-quality products, and we’re just as invested in running effective business operations. We’re looking to bring on a numbers-oriented generalist to help with the second goal. This role will focus primarily on financial planning and analysis, but if you’ve got the time and skills you may contribute to business development and marketing efforts too. If you’re a quantitative thinker interested in startups, keep reading!

The Details:

Currently multiple people on our team devote parts of their time to tracking and optimizing where our funds flow and when. In this role, you’d draw data from various parts of the business, process and interpret it, and make sure key takeaways get recorded and shared with the right people. You’d also contribute to day-to-day operations by assisting with bookkeeping, identifying areas for improvement, and creating product invoices and quotes.

Here are some specific tasks you might work on:

• Building and maintaining financial models to inform key business decisions
• Assembling quotes for customers
• Creating and tracking invoices
• Preparing financial reports for investors and quarterly meetings
• Building project and event cost analyses
• Assisting with accounting (seasonal) and bookkeeping (year-round) efforts
• Contributing to grant applications and project proposals by helping create budgets and relevant narrative sections

Whether you’ve been working for 3 years or 30, we expect an open-minded learning attitude from everyone at Seasats.

You’re a highly curious person, one who has built a lot of spreadsheets in your time. You like to ask questions and understand systems deeply, but you can work with round numbers and rapidly identify general trends when you've only got an hour to make a decision. You keep things organized, can write clearly, and can make a PowerPoint slide that is both visually appealing and informative. You are also:

• Good at Excel
• Experienced building and maintaining financial models
• Happy to work on a variety of projects and topics
• Familiar with financial statements and basic accounting principles
• Discreet and trustworthy with sensitive information
• Interested in technology

You get bonus points if you’ve worked with startups, built things with your hands, and/or worked with technology products before.
