About the role

StockX's Vice President of Finance is a key senior leadership position reporting directly to the CFO.  We are  looking for a senior, hands-on leader who can bring best practices across our strategic finance, FP&A and marketplace insights/analytics functions. As a late stage high-growth company, this role is essential to our continued success. The position includes developing and driving StockX’s planning and reporting processes, financial forecasts and analyses, as well as overseeing management reporting, business insights and KPIs.  A significant portion of the role also involves leadership of the business intelligence team, who partner closely with the various functions for data insights and analytics.

The Vice President of Finance will partner closely with StockX leadership on the Company’s international and category growth efforts, including being a thought partner on offerings, market analysis, pricing, and global operations expansion. The position will also work closely with the marketing organization on buyer/seller acquisition and retention drivers, and lead the BI teams to continuously develop and refine the underlying data sets. The successful candidate will have the skillset to play a broader leadership role in areas beyond finance and analytics, including partnering closely with the Revenue Management, Global Operations, Corp Dev, Investor Relations, Communications, Payments, Procurement, HR, Legal and Real Estate teams. The role will also drive various ad hoc analyses of critical business issues. 

The position will initially have a team of ~30 team members. While the role can be remote, the preference is to be in the Bay Area, CA or Detroit, MI.
