Director of Strategic Finance - Remote

Founded in 2017 and created by a team with decades of commission experience, CaptivateIQ is pioneering the new standard in commission management software and enabling companies to reclaim the power of incentives. Calculating commissions is mission-critical. And it’s really, really hard. Each company has a unique commission structure that involves far more calculations and data than a typical salary payroll — and for many, commission is one of the largest expenses on the P&L statement.

Back up to 5+ years ago, when compensation leaders were tracking and managing sales data using costly legacy software or, in the worst cases, a single spreadsheet. These opaque, error-prone processes led to frustration, redundant work, and in many cases, incorrect commission calculations, which can impact sales team productivity, job satisfaction, and retention. The founders, having managed this process firsthand, created the solution that they’d want to use: CaptivateIQ.

The Role…

The Director of Strategic Finance will join the company’s inaugural finance team, reporting to the CFO/VP of Finance, and will lead the development, management, and expansion of the Financial Planning & Analysis function. This role will enjoy high visibility and strategic influence with the C-suite leadership team and will partner across all areas of the business on short and long-term strategic and financial plans.

A proven product offering that solves a mission-critical problem: 29 of the Forbes Cloud 100, including leaders like Amplitude, Gong, and Hopin, use CaptivateIQ to power their commission management programs. The product is also now the #1 commission solution on G2, TrustRadius, and Gartner PeerInsights.

High growth business that has tripled in each of the last 2 years and the company is planning to grow its employee base from around 200 to 400 in the next year.

Series C funded company that has raised $164.6M in fundingand achieved a $1.25 billion valuation. Investors include ICONIQ, Sequoia, Accel, Workday Ventures, Sapphire, Y Combinator, Amity Ventures, GTMFund, S28 Capital, and other top investors.
