Fanatics is a leading global digital sports platform serving over 100 million sports fans worldwide. The company operates across three main segments: Fanatics Commerce (licensed fan gear, jerseys, apparel), Fanatics Collectibles (physical and digital trading cards, memorabilia), and Fanatics Betting & Gaming (sportsbook and iGaming). With 22,000+ employees and partnerships with approximately 900 sports properties including major leagues, teams, and athletes, Fanatics is reshaping how fans engage with sports.
The Strategic Finance Manager will join the Finance team to drive forecasting, financial performance reporting, and strategic analysis for the Fanatics Ecosystem. This is a high-ownership, high-visibility role requiring both financial rigor and analytical depth to generate actionable insights for senior leadership and business partners.
Key responsibilities include: managing monthly and annual financial processes including in-depth results analysis and forecasting; supporting P&L reviews and month-end close in partnership with Accounting and FP&A teams; partnering cross-functionally with business leads to review financial performance and provide growth recommendations; preparing recurring management reporting and business review materials that translate results into clear narratives; conducting ad-hoc strategic analyses to evaluate key investments and growth initiatives; collaborating with analytics to track and report operational KPIs; and identifying opportunities to enhance and automate financial workflows using AI-enabled tools.
The ideal candidate combines strong financial modeling and forecasting expertise with excellent communication skills. You will own models and recurring monthly processes end-to-end, translate complex financial analysis into concise narratives for senior stakeholders, and operate effectively in a fast-moving, ambiguous environment. Advanced Excel proficiency is essential; experience with data tools (Sigma, Tableau, SQL/Snowflake) and financial systems (Oracle or similar) is valued.
