Imprint helps the world's best brands grow the lifetime value of their customers. We started with co-branded credit cards and rebuilt them to be smarter, more rewarding, and brand-first. We partner with companies like Crate & Barrel, Rakuten, Booking.com, H-E-B, Fetch, and Shell to launch modern credit programs that deepen loyalty, unlock savings, and drive growth. But the card is just the beginning. We combine advanced payments infrastructure, intelligent underwriting, and deep customer data to create delightful and personalized experiences for members as well as efficient and profitable relationships for our brand partners. Our robust technology and world-class operations allow us and our brand partners to offer powerful financial products without becoming a bank.
In the U.S., co-branded cards alone account for over $300 billion in annual spend, and most still run on decades-old legacy bank systems. Imprint is the modern alternative: flexible, embeddable, and built for how people actually pay today. Backed by Kleiner Perkins, Thrive Capital, Ribbit, and Khosla Ventures, we're building a world-class team to redefine how people pay and how brands grow. If you want to move fast, solve hard problems, and own real outcomes, we want to meet you.
As Senior Manager, Strategic Finance, you will own Imprint's corporate financial model and act as a strategic thought partner to cross functional teams, helping steer the business weekly, not quarterly, toward the right outcomes. This is a high impact individual contributor role with accountability for the numbers that drive our most important decisions and for the story those numbers tell to our board, our investors, and teams across Risk, Growth, and Data.
This is a hands on role for someone who is equally at home in the weeds of a model and in the room with executives. You'll build the forecast, dig into why the numbers moved, and turn that into a clear recommendation, then translate the same analysis into a board ready narrative that anticipates the questions investors will ask before they ask them. You will partner directly with Senior Leaders, with direct exposure to the C-suite, and work cross functionally with Commercial, Risk, Growth, Accounting, Treasury, Capital Markets, and Data.
Beyond owning the numbers, you'll help push the business forward strategically, making sure the company is focused on the right actions to drive the best outcomes, and giving leadership a clear, well reasoned point of view on where to place its bets. This role is right for someone who thinks like an investor, has strong commercial judgment, and has the confidence to challenge assumptions rather than just report results.
