Finance Business Partner - Data & Analytics

We're not just building an ecommerce platform. We’re reshaping how fashion & lifestyle brands scale globally. Our API-first, headless SaaS platform supports over 300 brands in delivering localized, high-performance shopping experiences across 120+ countries. Backed by a 50 million SEK investment from the H&M Group, we power leading names like COS, ARKET, & Other Stories, Weekday, Nudie Jeans, and Paul Smith. Brands trust Centra to run operations in 20+ markets - a reflection of the platform’s flexibility and efficiency. Why Join Centra? Our finance team has one goal: to proactively give the business the data it needs to decide. Not reports on request - analysis that arrives before the decision does. The stack is in place. Bright Analytics consolidates our accounting systems in Sweden and the UK, with Poland next, and lands fresh data daily. Plock runs billing straight into those systems, with HubSpot connecting soon. Now we're adding the analytical layer on top and that's this role. You'd be our lead finance-and-data hire, with a real mandate over tools and standards. What You’ll Do. Business analysis & partnering (60%): The analytical partner across the company. Pricing tiers and SaaS KPIs with Sales and Marketing - ARR, churn, LTV, CAC. Cloud and API costs and gross margin with Engineering. You own the reporting and dashboard layer, and you make it self-serve. Data quality & systems (25%): Own the flow between Plock, our banking, and our accounting systems - and make the HubSpot connection earn its keep. Apply AI to real finance workflows: forecasting, variance analysis, modelling. If a recurring task can be automated, we want it automated. Close, consolidation & audit (15–20%): Own the monthly close - accruals, cut-off, reconciliation review, the reporting pack. Day-to-day bookkeeping is outsourced; the judgement and the numbers are yours. Own consolidation in Bright Analytics, bring Poland onto it, and lead our side of the annual audit. What We’re Looking For. 4–6 years as a Business Controller, Financial Controller, or in a data-focused finance role. SaaS fluency. Subscription models, recurring revenue, and what actually drives gross margin. Solid accounting foundations. You can own a close and defend your revenue recognition to an auditor. Deferred revenue and contract liabilities are familiar territory. A technical controller's instincts. You query large datasets yourself - SQL, spreadsheets, BI tooling - and find the trend without waiting on a data team. International scope. Multi-currency, multi-entity reporting. Hands-on AI experimentation in finance processes. Tell us about a workflow you automated Bonus: data rooms, investor packs, due diligence. You don't need to check every box. Strong on analysis and lighter on consolidation, or the reverse - still worth a conversation Our Recruitment Process. Introductory Interview: Meet our recruiter, discuss your experience and expectations. (Online, 30–45 min) Technical Interview: Dive into technical discussions. (Online or onsite 1.5–2h) Ways of Working Interview: Explore your alignment with our values and meet the team. (Online or onsite, 1h) Executive chat: A short alignment conversation with our CEO
