Sales Operations:

  • Provide clear visibility to the sales pipeline and to the key metrics by which the pipeline should be evaluated and managed
  • Evaluate and monitor the financial performance of products and subscription models
  • Support sales execution through margin and pricing analysis
  • Collaborate with Business Unit leads and executive leadership to manage a transparent, effective system for variable compensation across the organization •


Procurement and Supply Chain Management:

  • Perform intelligence gathering in support of a prioritized procurement agenda for cost optimization
  • Analyze supply chain logistics for hardware-related elements of the product offering
  • Support the Finance organization in the creation of an integrated procurement structure in collaboration with finance and procurement personnel from foreign subsidiary operations


Qualifications:

  • Excellent critical thinking skills, well-placed judgment, and tact are essential
  • 3-5 years within a top-tier corporate FP&A function with experience developing financial models supporting operational decision making
  • Strong educational background in Finance, Business, Data Visualization, and/or Economics from a top undergraduate university; MBA a plus but not required
  • Experience building-up financial reports from scratch, preferably in a startup environment
  • Expertise in strategic planning, budgeting, forecasting, modeling, and reporting, as well as a strong appreciation for procedure, process, and operational excellence
  • Expert-level proficiency within Excel, up-to/including VBA and/or macro creation; proficiency with other BI modeling tools (e.g., Qlikview, PowerBI, Python, R) highly valued
  • Demonstrated aptitude within technology disciplines required • Practical work experience in the technology industry preferred, ideally in a SaaS-based company
  • Excellent written and oral communication skills required
  • Strong organizational and project management skills to effectively handle multiple projects simultaneously


Aeris walks the walk on diversity. We are a brilliant mix of varying ethnicities, backgrounds, religions, cultures, sexual orientations, gender identities, ages and professional/personal/military experiences – and that’s by design. Different perspectives are essential to our culture, innovative process and competitive edge. Aeris is proud to be an equal opportunity employer.
