Financial Analyst

What drives you? Maybe you want to make the world a better place. Maybe you want to advance your career and work with the brightest minds in freight technology. Maybe you want to tackle new, exciting challenges while disrupting an industry. If this sounds like you, you've come to the right place.

While we're talking about your role in disruption, let's talk about disrupting job search norms. For example, one study found that men applied to jobs for which they met 60% of the criteria, whereas women applied only when they met ALL of the criteria. Here at Flock Freight, we're interested in your inherent abilities, not just the skills you bring from your last role - if you think you have what it takes to succeed in the role but don't check every box, please still get in touch. We'd love to start a conversation with you.

Flock Freight is proud to sponsor H1-B transfers and sponsorship for OPT candidates for certain positions. Please ask your recruiter if your role qualifies!

If you require reasonable accommodation in completing an application, interviewing, completing any pre-employment testing, or otherwise participating in the employee selection process, please direct your inquiries to talentops@flockfreight.com.

Interviewing is a two-way street, so let's get to know each other. Here's a little about us:

  • We're a unicorn. Following our recent Series D funding round, our valuation has surpassed $1 billion
  • We're growing fast — like, speed-of-light fast. In the past year, we've tripled our workforce and added thousands of square feet in Encinitas and Chicago
  • We've got support. Our investors include SoftBank, Susquehanna, Eden Capital, Volvo Group Venture Capital, SignalFire, GLP Capital Partners, and GV (formerly Google Ventures)
  • Efficiency is in our DNA. Our mission is to reinvent North America's $2 trillion freight industry by relentlessly eliminating waste and inefficiency
  • Algorithms drive our sustainable shared truckload solution. Behind our carbon neutral shared truckload service is world-class tech (and a lot of sweat)
  • We're taking names. Find us on the CNBC Disruptor 50, SDCE 100, SDBJ Diversity & Social Responsibility, and Fast Company World Changing Ideas lists
  • We walk the walk. We make a positive impact in everything we do; our B Corporation certification is proof. We were the first B Corp in our industry
  • We offer a hybrid work environment, and we are intentional about doing it right. Knowing you have a life outside of work, we won't ask you to do your job from the office five days a week
