Behavox is a cloud-native AI company providing an integrated controls platform for global financial institutions—banks, asset managers, hedge funds, private equity firms, insurance businesses, and commodity firms. The platform unifies communications and trade surveillance, compliant archiving, policy management, and front-office analytics on a single AI-native SaaS stack.
You will own Behavox's core financial model—its architecture, accounting foundations, and the forecasts and analysis that drive company planning and decisions. This is a high-autonomy role that works without detailed briefs and sets the modeling standard others build on. Your influence comes from the rigor and reach of your analysis, not from authority.
Key responsibilities:
**Financial Model Ownership**: Build and maintain the core three-statement and operating model using robust architecture, accounting logic, scenario and sensitivity layers, and integrated budgets. Own the accuracy of every output and the integrity of every assumption to provide reliable forecasts and analysis for company planning and decision-making.
**Acquisition Modeling & Integration**: Build valuations, scenarios, and pro-forma combined-entity models by independently evaluating targets, supporting due diligence, and consolidating closed deals to provide a complete financial view of acquisition implications and the combined business.
**Business-Review Reporting**: Drive the financial substance of monthly, quarterly, and annual business reviews by translating model outputs and performance drivers into a clear narrative that enables senior management, the board, and investors to understand results and implications.
**Metrics Analysis & Business Partnering**: Diagnose financial and SaaS metric movements by identifying operating drivers, pressure-testing assumptions, and modeling relevant levers and downside cases to give decision-makers evidence-based recommendations.
**AI-Enabled Productivity**: Apply AI and spreadsheet automation to recurring financial workflows by automating appropriate work and strengthening data validation while retaining judgment over what remains manual.
You are accountable for the accuracy and integrity of the numbers, and for turning them into recommendations sharp enough to act on—including downside cases, not just point estimates—for senior leadership, the board, and investors. You pressure-test the assumptions behind every result, work fluently with modern tooling and AI, and compound that edge by learning relentlessly.
**Requirements:**
- Financial Model & Accounting Foundations: Understand the architecture of integrated three-statement and operating models and the accounting that underpins them, including SaaS revenue recognition and cost treatment. Understand how company budgets are built and how to integrate them accurately into the core financial model.
- Forecasting & SaaS Unit Economics: Understand bottom-up short-term forecasting, driver-based long-term modeling, and the SaaS metrics that reveal business performance. Connect movements in those metrics to their underlying drivers and the operating levers that can change them.
- Mergers, Acquisitions & Integration: Understand acquisition valuation, purchase accounting, combined-entity projections, and consolidation mechanics sufficiently to evaluate targets and integrate completed acquisitions into the financial model.
- Business & Commercial Acumen: Understand in depth how the business and its functions generate revenue and incur costs, including the underlying revenue drivers, cost structure, and operating levers. Apply this knowledge to identify inconsistencies and challenge financial results and assumptions.
- Financial Systems & AI Tooling: Understand Google Sheets, Excel, AI, and automation capabilities sufficiently to determine how they should be applied to financial modeling and analysis. Distinguish where automation can improve speed and control from where financial judgment and manual validation must remain.
Hybrid role (1 day in office). 30 days annual time off plus public holidays and sick leave.
