About KOMOJU

KOMOJU is Japan's leading cross-border payment gateway. We power payments for companies such as the video game distribution platform Steam and the popular mobile app TikTok. Today, we support thousands of merchants by providing the payment infrastructure they need—from developer-friendly APIs to integrations with popular platforms such as Shopify and Wix—helping them grow in every market they enter.

About the team

The FP&A team sits within the Finance and Accounting (F&A) department under the leadership of the VP of Finance. It is organized into two teams: FP&A – Go-to-Market and FP&A – Corporate Functions.

This position is an individual contributor role within the FP&A – Go-to-Market team and reports directly to the FP&A GTM Manager. You will drive financial planning, modeling, and analysis to support the company's go-to-market and company-wide strategic initiatives.

STRATEGIC INITIATIVE FINANCIAL MODELING & SIMULATION (Primary Focus)

  • Independently own and drive financial simulations and modeling for company-wide strategic initiatives, partnering closely with commercial departments
  • Translate business strategies, new programs, and initiatives into financial models, scenario analyses, and impact assessments
  • Evaluate the financial impact of new programs and strategies, and provide recommendations to senior stakeholders
  • Analyze business considerations and plans from a financial perspective to support decision-making

BUDGETING & FORECASTING

  • Support the annual budgeting process and periodic reforecasting cycles
  • Conduct variance analyses (actual vs. budget/forecast) across total payment volume (TPV), revenue, and gross profit, linking financial results to business drivers
  • Assist in developing comprehensive financial forecasts, reports, and analyses
  • Help recommend actions to support TPV growth and gross profit improvement goals

BUSINESS PARTNERING & REPORTING

  • Respond to ad hoc financial analysis requests from other departments in a timely and accurate manner
  • Proactively identify improvement opportunities through financial data analysis, propose actionable recommendations, and drive implementation in partnership with relevant departments

In addition to the core responsibilities above, you will contribute to FP&A projects and collaborate with internal and external stakeholders to achieve the company's objectives.

Who you are

  • Obsession with customer value. You look beyond short-term financial results to understand how business decisions affect merchants and sustainable company growth. You evaluate whether initiatives create meaningful customer value while supporting KOMOJU's financial goals.

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it

  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
