The Senior Strategic Finance Associate partners with operations to analyze financial performance, enhance productivity metrics, and utilize AI for operational efficiency. Responsibilities include financial modeling, variance analysis, and building dashboards to support decision-making in logistics and supply chain.
Role Summary
This role serves as the finance partner for Veho’s Operations organization, working closely with Ground Operations, Transportation Network, and Facilities Management. It sits at the intersection of financial rigor and operational excellence — with a sharp focus on unit economics and the supply chain metrics that keep Veho’s network running efficiently at scale.
The person in this role will drive deep cross-functional collaboration alongside operations, logistics, and network teams to set productivity benchmarks, design performance frameworks, and surface insights that translate day-to-day execution into long-term profitability.
This is a high-impact problem-solving role for someone who can identify where unit economics are breaking down, build analytical frameworks to fix them, and influence operational leaders to act on findings. They will bring strategic thinking to network optimization, warehousing, and network planning, and will actively leverage AI tools to accelerate analysis, sharpen forecasting, and unlock efficiencies across workstreams.
