SeatGeek believes live events are powerful experiences that unite humans. With our technological savvy and fan-first attitude we’re simplifying and modernizing the ticketing industry.

By catering to both consumers and enterprises, we’re powering a new, open entertainment ecosystem where fans have effortless access to experiences, and teams, venues, and shows have seamless access to their audiences. Because everyone should expect more from ticketing.

The FP&F team’s mission is to support and enable better financial planning and decision-making by leading forecasting processes across the business. The team consists of dedicated forecasting partners who support functions across SeatGeek by collaborating on and consolidating revenue and margin models for our Primary, Secondary, EMEA, and Inventory business lines. The team is responsible for weekly, quarterly, and long-range forecasting and budgeting; developing SeatGeek’s scenario planning capabilities; and supporting the Investor Relations team with guidance formulation.

What you'll do

  • Maintaining the rolling Secondary revenue forecasts to inform in-quarter resource deployment decisions and to provide a preview of quarterly accounting close results
  • Partnering with the Commercial Performance, Account Management, and Analytics teams to budget and consolidate our existing client, integrated partnership, and non-integrated Secondary revenue lines
  • Collaborating with the Demand team to understand and incorporate the impact of marketing spend and its ROI on our Secondary budget
  • Developing scenario planning capabilities to allow SeatGeek to plan and prepare for a wide range of environments in the unpredictable live events business

What you have

  • 6-8 years of progressive experience in FP&A, management consulting, or investment banking, with 5+ years of direct FP&A experience preferred
  • Experience partnering with Analytics and Data Science teams to integrate data-driven forecasting into FP&A processes
  • Mastery of financial modeling (3-statement, NPV, Cohort Modeling) and spreadsheet functionality
  • Advanced understanding of relational databases and BI tool functionality
  • Strong project management skills - you are capable of conceiving and executing projects independently, with minimal oversight from manager 

Perks

  • Equity stake
  • Flexible work environment, allowing you to work as many days a week in the office as you’d like or 100% remotely
  • A WFH stipend to support your home office setup
  • Unlimited PTO
  • Up to 16 weeks of paid family leave
  • 401(k) matching program
  • Health, vision, dental, and life insurance
  • Up to $25k towards family building services
