INTRODUCTION
Gong harnesses the power of AI to transform how revenue teams win. The Gong Revenue AI Operating System unifies data, insights, and workflows into a single, trusted system that observes, guides, and acts alongside the world's most successful revenue teams. Powered by the Gong Revenue Graph, AI-powered intelligence, specialized agents, and trusted applications, Gong helps more than 5,000 companies around the world deeply understand their teams and customers, automate critical sales workflows, and close more deals with less effort.
At Gong, you will join a company built on innovative products, ambitious goals, and passionate people. We are shaping the future of revenue intelligence and we want people who are excited to build what comes next. You will work with a team that dreams big, moves fast, and cares deeply about the craft and about each other. Here, transparency and trust are core to how we operate, and every person has the opportunity to make a visible impact. If you want to grow, stretch, and do work that truly matters, Gong is the place to do the best work of your career.
Gong is building the intelligence layer that powers how revenue organizations understand their business. As a company at the intersection of AI and enterprise SaaS — and actively transitioning from pure subscription to consumption-based pricing — the financial complexity is increasing and decidedly intriguing. The data is rich, the business model is evolving, and the questions don't have easy answers yet.
This role is for someone who finds that energizing.
ROLE AND RESPONSIBILITIES
As Sr. Manager, Corporate FP&A, you will sit at the center of how Gong understands its own financial performance. You will own the analytical work that informs decisions made by the CFO and executive team — not as a support function, but as a real thought partner. If you've spent time in investment banking, consulting, or private equity and want to apply that rigor to directly impact the direction and growth of a fast scaling company, this is the seat.
What you'll do:
- Own the company's consolidated financial model and P&L narrative — not just maintaining it, but constantly challenging it. What assumptions are embedded that haven't been revisited? What does the data suggest that the model doesn't yet reflect?
- Drive ARR forecasting and revenue analytics in close partnership with GTM Strategy — understanding not just what the numbers say, but what is driving them at the cohort, segment, and product level.
- As Gong expands into consumption-based pricing for AI features, build and own the financial framework for modeling hybrid revenue — subscription ARR alongside usage-based and credit-based revenue streams.
- Lead scenario modeling and strategic analysis that informs resource allocation decisions at the executive level — the kind of work where intellectual rigor and sound judgment matter as much as technical execution.
- Co-lead the monthly close review, quarterly forecast cycle, and annual planning process — bringing a point of view to each, not just a package.
- Drive forecast accuracy improvement over time: identify where and why the model misses, develop better leading indicators, and systematically close the gap.
- Support the preparation of CFO-level reporting and management presentations, including monthly financial reviews and QBR materials prepared for leadership — with the expectation that you can tell the story behind the numbers, not just produce the slides.
BASIC QUALIFICATIONS
The profile: You are the person who, when handed a dataset, immediately asks what else should be in it, what the outliers mean, and what the trend looks like three levels down. You have a natural intolerance for surface-level explanations and a habit of asking "what am I not seeing?" before you sign off on any analysis. You've built models under pressure, defended them in rooms full of skeptics, and used the experience to build better ones next time.
Experience
- 8+ years in investment banking, private equity, strategy consulting, equity research, or high-growth company FP&A — with a track record of owning complex financial analysis end-to-end, not just supporting it.
- Deep command of enterprise SaaS metrics: ARR, NDR, CAC payback, LTV/CAC, cohort retention, gross margin by product line — you don't need to look these up, and you understand the nuances, edge cases, and common misinterpretations behind each.
- Bonus: experience modeling consumption or usage-based revenue — understanding how utilization curves, credit burn rates, and variable COGS interact with a subscription base is a real differentiator here.
- Advanced financial modeling skills; you build models that other people can audit, stress-test, and trust.
- Experience with financial planning tools (Pigment, Adaptive, Anaplan) and ERP/CRM systems; comfortable working across systems and knowing their limitations.
- Prior exposure to high-growth or pre-IPO environments where the playbook isn't written and the work requires building from first principles.
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- You hold yourself and others accountable to understanding the why behind the numbers — not just the what.
- You can operate at the level of a CFO presentation and a raw dataset in the same day.
- You write and communicate clearly — the analysis is only as valuable as the decision it enables.
- You thrive in ambiguity, move fast without sacrificing rigor, and have a strong ownership mentality.
WHY THIS ROLE
The financial complexity of Gong's model is increasing — AI-driven consumption pricing layered on top of enterprise SaaS creates analytical challenges that most FP&A teams haven't had to solve yet. The Strategic Finance team is lean by design, which means your work lands directly with the CFO and executive team. The company is at a scale where individual analytical contributions can visibly change how decisions get made.
If you want a role where intellectual curiosity is the job requirement, not a nice-to-have — this is it.
PERKS & BENEFITS
- We offer Gongsters a variety of medical, dental, and vision plans, designed to fit you and your family's needs.
- Wellbeing Fund - flexible wellness stipend to support a healthy lifestyle.
- Mental Health benefits with covered therapy and coaching.
- 401(k) program to help you invest in your future.
- Education & learning stipend for personal growth and development.
- Flexible vacation time to promote a healthy work-life blend.
- Paid parental leave to support you and your family.
- Company-wide recharge days each quarter.
- Work from home stipend to help you succeed in a remote environment.
The annual salary hiring range for this position is $138,000 - $210,000 USD.
Compensation is based on factors unique to each candidate, including, but not limited to, job-related skills, qualification, education, experience, and location. At Gong, we have a location-based compensation structure, which means there may be a different range for candidates in other locations. The total compensation package for this position, in addition to base compensation, may include incentive compensation, bonus, equity, and benefits. Some of our sales compensation programs also offer the potential to achieve above targeted earnings for those who exceed their sales targets.
We are always looking for outstanding Gongsters! So if this sounds like something that interests you regardless of compensation, please reach out. We may have more roles for you to consider and would love to connect.
We have noticed a rise in recruiting impersonations across the industry, where scammers attempt to access candidates' personal and financial information through fake interviews and offers. All Gong recruiting email communications will always come from the @gong.io domain. Any outreach claiming to be from Gong via other sources should be ignored.
Gong is an equal-opportunity employer. We believe that diversity is integral to our success, and do not discriminate based on race, color, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, national origin, disability, military status, genetic information, or any other basis protected by applicable law.

Get Access To All JobsTips for Finding Visa Sponsorship as a Strategic Finance Manager
Target companies with in-house treasury or FP&A functions
Large corporations and PE-backed companies with dedicated finance teams sponsor far more consistently than smaller firms. A standalone Strategic Finance Manager role signals the employer has the infrastructure, and budget, to handle H-1B petitions.
Make your degree-to-role connection explicit
USCIS scrutinizes specialty occupation status for finance roles. Your application is stronger when your degree field, finance, accounting, economics, or business analytics, maps directly to the strategic modeling and forecasting work you'll perform.
Document quantitative work in your resume
Sponsorship approvals for finance roles hinge on demonstrating specialized skill. Emphasize financial modeling, scenario analysis, and cross-functional planning, not just reporting. Generic finance experience is harder to defend as a specialty occupation than technical, analytical work.
Understand that L-1 is sometimes faster for internal transfers
If you currently work for a multinational company abroad, an L-1A or L-1B transfer to a U.S. entity can be faster than H-1B. Strategic Finance Managers who manage teams may qualify for L-1A as managers or executives.
Ask about sponsorship policy before your first interview
Finance hiring moves quickly. Confirming sponsorship eligibility before interviews prevents late-stage rejections. Phrasing like 'Do you support H-1B transfers or new petitions?' is direct and professional, most finance recruiters handle this routinely.
Use Migrate Mate to find pre-vetted sponsoring employers
Filtering by employers with a proven H-1B filing history saves significant time. Migrate Mate surfaces Strategic Finance Manager roles at companies that have sponsored visa holders before, reducing the guesswork in your job search.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does a Strategic Finance Manager role qualify for H-1B sponsorship?
Yes. Strategic Finance Manager consistently qualifies as a specialty occupation because the role requires at minimum a bachelor's degree in finance, accounting, economics, or a related field. USCIS looks at whether the degree requirement is standard for the position across the industry, for senior finance roles at most employers, it is. Avoid job descriptions that say 'degree preferred' rather than 'required,' as that phrasing can weaken the petition.
What degree do I need for an employer to sponsor my visa in this role?
A bachelor's degree in finance, accounting, economics, business administration, or a quantitative field like statistics or financial engineering is the standard baseline. MBA holders are common in Strategic Finance, and a graduate degree can strengthen a petition if your undergraduate field is less directly related. USCIS may issue a Request for Evidence if your degree is in an unrelated field, even with strong work experience.
What types of employers sponsor H-1B visas for Strategic Finance Managers?
The most consistent sponsors are large publicly traded corporations, private equity-backed portfolio companies, investment banks, and high-growth tech companies with dedicated FP&A or corporate finance teams. Smaller companies and early-stage startups sponsor less frequently, not because they can't, but because they often lack the legal infrastructure and budget. Browse Strategic Finance Manager roles on Migrate Mate to find employers with verified H-1B visa filing histories.
How does the H-1B lottery affect my chances of getting sponsored in this role?
The H-1B cap applies to most Strategic Finance Manager roles unless your employer is a university, nonprofit research institution, or cap-exempt entity. In recent years, selection rates have hovered around 25%. If you're currently on OPT or STEM OPT, your employer can file on your behalf during the annual registration window in March. Employers can also transfer an existing H-1B if you already hold one, no lottery required.
Can I transfer my H-1B to a new employer as a Strategic Finance Manager?
Yes. H-1B portability lets you transfer your visa to a new employer once your original petition has been approved and you've been counted against the cap. The new employer files an H-1B transfer petition, and you can typically begin working as soon as it's filed, you don't need to wait for approval. The role and degree requirements still need to meet specialty occupation standards at the new company.
What is the prevailing wage requirement for sponsored Strategic Finance Manager jobs?
U.S. employers sponsoring a visa must pay at least the prevailing wage, which is what workers in the same role, area, and experience level typically earn. The Department of Labor sets this rate to make sure companies aren't hiring foreign workers simply because they'd accept lower pay than a U.S. worker. It varies by job title, location, and experience. You can look up current prevailing wage rates for any occupation and location using the OFLC Wage Search page.
