FP&A & Strategic Finance – Analyst

Emergence

RemoteRemote$15,000 – $40,000 a year

Who We Are

We're a thematic holding company backed by the Pritzker Organization focused exclusively on acquiring and scaling category-defining software businesses. Our structure organizes investments into focused portfolios that function as specialized operating groups, each developing deep domain expertise, proven operational playbooks and long-term partnerships with founders and management teams.

We combine operational rigor with a growth equity mindset - partnering closely with leadership teams to drive sustainable ARR growth, profitability improvements and industry-leading customer outcomes.

The Mission

Build financial infrastructure across portfolio companies so founders and leaders forecast accurately and make decisions with confidence.

What You'll Do

- Build detailed operating models (revenue, retention, pricing, headcount, cash flow) that become the single source of truth for portfolio companies.

- Design standardized financial reporting packages, KPI dashboards, and budget-versus-actuals frameworks for month-on-month performance analysis.

- Own quarterly forecasting cadence: collect inputs, reconcile actuals, stress-test assumptions, and present findings to executives and investors.

- Partner with accounting teams to diagnose and fix data quality issues at the root (chart of accounts, revenue recognition, timing gaps).

- Identify and repair logical gaps, circular references, and broken assumptions in inherited models and data pipelines.

- Conduct ad-hoc financial analysis on unit economics, pricing, hiring ROI, and cash runway with clear recommendations.

What We're Looking For

Must-haves

- 1 to 3 years in FP&A, Strategic Finance, Investment Banking, Private Equity, or highly analytical corporate finance roles.

- Advanced Excel or Google Sheets proficiency: build models from scratch, link worksheets, create dynamic assumptions, stress-test scenarios.

- Solid accounting and finance fundamentals: understand accrual vs. cash, P&L and balance sheet structure, working capital, revenue recognition.

- Ability to overlap meaningfully with U.S. time zones (EST/CST) for weekly meetings and ad-hoc collaboration.

Nice-to-haves

- Experience with SQL, Python, Looker, or Tableau for automating data pulls and building dashboards.

- Prior exposure to SaaS metrics (MRR, ARR, CAC, LTV, churn, net retention) or B2B unit economics.

- Familiarity with ERP systems (NetSuite, Sage Intacct) or accounting software (QuickBooks).

Who you are

● Take pride in accuracy and consistency, even on the unglamorous stuff

● Catch issues early and fix them without needing a lot of airtime

● Ask sharp questions and then go do the work to answer them

● Communicate clearly in English, both in writing and live, because you will work with

U.S.-based executives and investors

● Stay calm when priorities shift, and still deliver something clean

What We Offer

- Salary: $15,000 to $40,000 USD based on experience and location.

- Full remote work across India and South Asia, Latin America.

- Exposure to early-stage to growth-stage software businesses with direct impact on scaling financial discipline.

- Opportunity to build repeatable processes and infrastructure used across the portfolio.
