At Greenlight, we're here to make the day-to-day easier and futures brighter, so families can spend less time managing life, and more time living it.

Your day-to-day:

  • Establish close cross-functional working relationships with business leaders to develop an understanding of their issues and needs; act as a liaison between these business leaders and executive management to drive attainment of business goals
  • Support our product, engineering, marketing, and commercial sales teams with detailed custom financial modeling, scenario analysis, and market insights for prospective products and initiatives
  • Analyze actual financial results vs budget/forecast and partner with business leaders to drive insightful and actionable decision support
  • Support investor relations and corporate development activities, such as peer company benchmarking and evaluation of strategic partnerships, investment opportunities, and acquisition targets
  • Own or contribute to forecasting, budgeting, resource allocation, and annual/long-range planning processes.
  • Support the Accounting Team in month-end and quarter-end close processes and audit support

What you’ll bring to the team:

  • Experience in strategic finance, FP&A, corporate development, investment banking, private equity/venture capital, management consulting, or a high-growth company (experience in FinTech is a plus)
  • 5+ years directly relatable work experience
  • Strong leadership and communication skills
  • Advanced Excel / Google Sheets modeling and technical skills
  • Excellent analytical skills and mindset
  • Proven ability to influence across functions and levels
  • Enthusiasm to learn and evolve skillset over time
  • Strong accounting and systems knowledge (experience using financial planning software is a plus)
  • Strong data visualization skills and an ability to synthesize complicated analyses in simple ways

What we're looking for in you:

  • A data-driven approach to analyze problems and drive actionable insights based on a strong understanding of consumer subscription or FinTech business models and the metrics that drive them (CAC, LTV, retention, cohort analysis, ARPU). Familiarity with consumer retail and hardware business models is a plus.
  • Strong verbal and written communication skills. Not afraid to speak up when seeking answers to critical issues and comfortable presenting recommendations to executives.
  • Business curiosity. Desire to understand how the business works and is comfortable asking the “why” behind the drivers/numbers.
  • A strategic thinker with a strong ownership mentality. Ability to zoom out to the big picture, while staying detail-oriented and committed to producing work at a high standard.
  • A creative mindset for building bespoke financial models from scratch for a diverse set of cross-functional needs.
  • Adaptability and flexibility. Startups require the ability to pivot when necessary.

Greenlight (operating under greenlight.com, legally Greenlight Financial Technology, Inc.) is a leading financial technology enterprise, pioneering digital banking ecosystem, and family safety platform engineered to democratize comprehensive financial literacy for children, teens, and young adults. Founded in 2014 by veteran technology entrepreneurs Tim Sheehan and Johnson Cook, the platform dismantled traditional retail banking friction—where minors lacked accessible digital payment methods and parents possessed no granular visibility into real-world youth expenditures—by deploying a secure, parental-controlled debit card and mobile banking application. Moving far beyond basic prepaid cards, Greenlight's sophisticated multi-tier SaaS model natively unifies automated allowance distributions, localized merchant spending guardrails, dynamic chore trackers, gamified financial education (Greenlight Level Up), and an app-based micro-investing platform tailored for beginners. To expand its addressable market across generational lines, the corporation continuously scale its utility by integrating advanced family safety suites—including real-time location tracking, SOS crash detection, and "Family Shield" senior scam and fraud monitoring protections. The company commands an exceptional, high-velocity distribution architecture through a robust B2B2C embedded finance strategy, partnering with over 150 top-tier financial institutions, credit unions, and enterprise employers—including marquee alliances with JPMorgan Chase and U.S. Bank—to embed its specialized youth banking stack into existing institutional infrastructure. Backed by $556 million in total institutional funding, culminating in a historic $260 million Series D financing round led by venture powerhouse Andreessen Horowitz alongside major investors like TTV Capital and Canapi Ventures, the fintech leader operates at a peak valuation exceeding $2.3 billion. Serving more than 6.5 million parents and children who have managed billions in transactional volume, the firm continues to grow via comprehensive cash-back offerings like the Greenlight Family Cash Card. Headquartered in Atlanta, Georgia, Greenlight stands as the definitive vanguard of modern family financial technology—replacing legacy financial exclusion with programmatic money management, automated parent-child oversight loops, and generational economic enablement.
