Analyze Metrics: Deep dive into unit economics, gross margins, and key financial KPIs.
Scenario Planning: Support growth and hiring decisions with dynamic “what-if” analyses.
Coordinate Monthly Close: Work with our outsourced accounting team to ensure clean, accurate financial data.
Drive Cost Discipline: Identify and help implement cost control measures across the company.
