Remote Commercial Finance Lead at StackAdapt — Columbus
Traveler-Friendly Insight
Remote-First with North American Timezone Alignment: StackAdapt explicitly positions itself as a Remote First company and accepts candidates anywhere in the US or Canada. However, the role partners closely with North American revenue teams, meaning your working hours will realistically need to overlap with ET/PT business hours — roughly 9am–6pm EST. This limits true timezone flexibility for nomads in Asia or Europe.
Best-fit nomad destinations within range: Given the North American timezone requirement, consider destinations with manageable time differences:
- Medellín, Colombia (ET-1): A top nomad hub with costs of ~$1,500–2,200/month. At ~$85–100K USD equivalent annually, you'd live very comfortably.
- Mexico City, Mexico (ET-1/CT): Excellent infrastructure, strong nomad community, ~$1,800–2,500/month. Timezone is near-perfect.
- Lisbon, Portugal (GMT+1): Possible with early starts; costs ~$2,500–3,500/month. The ET overlap would require 2–3pm to 10–11pm local shifts, which is tough long-term.
Travel-friendly perks: The optional WeWork global membership is a standout benefit — nomads can use coworking spaces worldwide rather than booking day passes. Work-from-home reimbursements may also cover portable equipment. No explicit travel or home-office equipment stipend is mentioned beyond WFH reimbursements.
Visa considerations: US candidates can leverage Mexico's Temporary Resident Visa or Colombia's Digital Nomad Visa (up to 2 years). Canadian citizens have additional options including Portugal's D8 visa for longer stays in Europe.

StackAdapt is a Remote First company. We are open to candidates located anywhere in the United States or Canada for this position.
What You'll Be Doing
- Deal Reviews & Governance: Support the revenue team with commercial negotiations through the review and approval of deals and initiatives. Create financial models to assess proposals and pricing options, and collaborate cross-functionally to ensure alignment across the business.
- Commercial Business Partnering: Provide finance support to divisional and regional revenue leaders, delivering detailed financial analysis and insights into performance, profitability, planning, and strategic decision-making.
- Cross-Functional Coordination: Collaborate across Finance (Accounting, FP&A, Credit/AR), Revenue Operations, and Legal teams to ensure end-to-end alignment on commercial activity, financial results, and forecasting.
- Reporting Excellence: Develop and maintain tools to track revenue and profitability performance against expectations, identifying opportunities and providing actionable insights. Conduct in-depth analysis to proactively identify key trends, risks, and growth opportunities to guide leadership.
What You'll Bring to the Table
- Professional Experience: 5–6 years post-professional qualification (CPA or equivalent) in Commercial Finance, FP&A, or Business Analytics, ideally within a high-growth or global technology environment.
- Commercial Modeling: Proven ability to build complex financial models (e.g., pricing simulations, investment proposals, business cases) and extract actionable insights from large datasets.
- Stakeholder Influence: Strong communication skills with the ability to influence and partner effectively with Sales leaders and cross-functional teams.
- Technical Proficiency: Advanced Excel skills required; Google Sheets experience is a plus. AI skills and experience utilizing LLMs at work is a significant plus, alongside experience with data tools like Snowflake, Tableau, or Power BI.
- System Knowledge: Familiarity with ERP systems (e.g., NetSuite) and commercial tools is an asset.
- Organizational Agility: Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple deliverables in a fast-paced, global environment.
