A note from the hiring team
We are not hiring a spreadsheet operator.
We are hiring a Strategic Finance leader who can help us make better decisions, faster.
This role sits at the intersection of finance, GTM, product, and operations. You will work on the real questions that drive company performance: where to invest, what is working, what is not, what trade-offs are worth making, and how to turn messy data into a clear decision.
If you want a role that is mostly budget vs. actuals, monthly reporting, and explaining the past, this is not it.
If you want to help shape how a scaling SaaS company allocates resources and grows intelligently, keep reading.
The mission
Help AfterShip make smarter growth decisions.
You will partner with leaders across Sales, Marketing, RevOps, Customer Success, Product, and Operations to frame decisions, model scenarios, pressure-test assumptions, and push the business toward better outcomes. Your job is not just to build models - it is to make them useful.
What success looks like
You are doing well in this role if:
- Business leaders seek Finance input before making major GTM or product decisions
- Your work changes decisions, not just informs them
- Pricing, hiring, funnel investment, retention, and expansion conversations become sharper because you clarified the trade-offs
- We have a stronger understanding of ARR, churn, retention, ARPU, CAC efficiency, and payback
- Finance is known for judgment and commercial thinking, not just controls
- Cross-functional partners trust you as a business partner, not a blocker
What you will own
- Decision support for growth bets: Evaluate where we should invest — and where we should not — across pricing, GTM expansion, headcount, retention, and product or operational initiatives. Turn ambiguous questions into clear, decision-ready recommendations by outlining options, assumptions, risks, upside, and a strong point of view.
- Scenario modeling that drives decisions: Build and own models across revenue, funnel performance, retention, ARPU, cohort behavior, and investment efficiency. Your work should be simple enough to use, rigorous enough to trust, and fast enough to inform real decisions.
- Performance analysis across GTM: Partner with North America leaders and global teams to understand what is truly driving performance across churn, retention, expansion, funnel efficiency, and GTM productivity. Separate signal from noise and focus the business on what actually matters.
- Cross-functional strategic projects: Contribute to high-impact initiatives such as GTM compensation design, annual planning, territory and investment planning, pricing changes, operational efficiency efforts, and ad hoc leadership questions that require fast, structured thinking.
- Global finance partnership: Work across North America, Asia, and Europe to ensure analysis is consistent, actionable, and decision-ready. Partner closely with FP&A, data, and business teams — with a focus on creating clarity, not process for its own sake.
Who you are
- Business-first thinker: You start with the problem, not the spreadsheet
- Strong decision framer: You turn ambiguity into clear options and trade-offs
- Comfortable with uncertainty: You can make recommendations with ~60–70% of the data
- Hands-on and analytical: You can build models and dive deep when needed
- Trusted challenger: You push back constructively and maintain credibility
- Clear communicator: You explain complex ideas simply and directly
What we are looking for
- 6 - 10 years of experience across investment banking, private equity, consulting, strategic finance, FP&A, or strategy & operations
- Experience partnering with GTM, Product, and Data teams
- Strong Excel / Sheets modeling skills; ability to build from scratch
- Working SQL and familiarity with BI tools (Looker, Tableau, etc.)
- Strong understanding of SaaS metrics and growth drivers
- Sound judgment, commercial instinct, and strong communication skills
- Comfortable working across global teams and time zones
- Mandarin is a real plus, especially given the cross-border operating model, but it is not the core reason someone will succeed here.
This role is not for you if
- You prefer working with perfect data before making recommendations
- You’re more energized by reporting than influencing business decisions
- You’re most comfortable in structured roles with clearly defined scope
- You prefer not to challenge assumptions or push on strategic trade-offs
- You tend to overcomplicate simple questions
At AfterShip, we know great talent doesn’t always fit every requirement. If you’re passionate about our mission and believe you can make an impact, we encourage you to apply.
Why You Should Join Us:
- Great Place to Work Certified: We’ve been recognized for our inclusive, values-driven culture that celebrates diversity and collaboration.

- Thrive & Grow: There’s no ceiling to what you can achieve or learn here. We’re committed to empowering your career while advancing together as a company.
- Flexible Work Setup: We’re a remote-first team, meaning by default that employees work from home or on a hybrid-flexible basis in our hub locations (i.e., Toronto, Austin, Barcelona). You’re empowered to choose a work setup that works best for you and your team. With flexible hours depending on your time zone, you’ll be able to have a schedule that fits your working style and the requirements of your role.
Perks:
- Competitive compensation
- Remote-first/hybrid-flexible work setups

Strategic Finance Manager
How to Get 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.

Get Access To All JobsFrequently 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 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.
