Senior Commercial Finance & Revenue Operations Analyst

TLDR

Serve as the analytical glue between Finance and Go-To-Market teams, architecting a robust revenue machine to optimize every stage of the customer journey and drive sustainable growth.

  Help us use technology to make a big green dent in the universe!   Kraken powers some of the most innovative global developments in energy.   We’re a technology company focused on creating a smart, sustainable energy system. From optimising renewable generation, creating a more intelligent grid and enabling utilities to provide excellent customer experiences, our operating system for energy is transforming the industry around the world in a way that benefits everyone.   It’s a really exciting time in energy. Help us make a real impact on shaping a better, more sustainable future. We are looking for a Senior Commercial Finance & Revenue Operations Analyst to serve as the analytical "glue" between our Finance and Go-To-Market (GTM) organisations. You will be the architect of our "revenue machine," ensuring that every stage of the customer journey - from lead generation to renewal - is measured, optimised, and aligned with our long-term financial objectives. This is not a traditional reporting role; you will act as a strategic partner who proactively identifies friction in the sales process, challenges forecasting assumptions with data, and builds the systems that drive sustainable growth. What you'll do:

Key Responsibilities

1. Forecasting & Pipeline Intelligence

  • Own reporting on sales pipeline, bookings, ARR, conversion rates, and deal velocity 

  • Own and advance the forecasting process.  Independently challenge sales forecasts using historical data, trends, and coverage analysis

  • Identify risks and opportunities in the pipeline and proactively surface insights

  • 2. Deal and Commercial insight 

  • Deal Desk: Support deal reviews by providing data-led insight on risk, margin, and precedent

  • Analyse pricing, discounting, contract term length, and deal structure trends

  • Help standardise reporting for large, complex, and non-standard deals

  • Value Engineering: Partner with Sales to build ROI calculators and business cases

  • 3. Revenue Strategy & Planning

  • Support annual planning, quota setting, capacity modelling, and scenario analysis

  • Translate GTM performance into high-level insights for Board materials and investor discussions, aligning weekly/monthly operational metrics with multi-year financial goals

  • 4. GTM Engineering & Systems

  • Data Stewardship: Maintain high data hygiene and reporting discipline across the tech stack

  • System Architecture: Act as a GTM Engineer, to enhance dashboards and automate the flow of data between tools

  • Tooling Optimisation: Implement AI use cases for revenue operations e.g. automated lead scoring or contract intelligence.

  • What you'll have:

    Experience

  • Strategic Finance, RevOps, or Commercial Analytics, ideally within a high-growth B2B SaaS environment.

  • Skills:

  • Finance Rigor + Sales Mindset: Ability to apply financial discipline (margin analysis, CAC/LTV) to the creative, fast-moving world of sales.

  • Advanced Excel/Google Sheets skills

  • Able to challenge assumptions constructively and confidently with senior stakeholders

  • Mindset

  • Commercially curious and outcome-focused

  • Comfortable operating in a fast-moving, scaling environment

  • Takes ownership and improves processes rather than simply reporting on them

  • Low-ego, high-impact team player

  • It would be great if you also had:
  • Proficiency in SQL and hands-on experience with GTM tools like HubSpot, Salesforce, or Gong.
  • Experience in a B2B SaaS or technology-enabled business strongly preferred
  • Experience supporting enterprise or complex B2B sales motions.   
  • Exposure to quota modelling, territory planning, or commission analytics. Familiarity with sales methodologies like MEDDPICC to identify gaps in deal execution.
