Financial Analyst (GTM/Commercial)
About the Role
Location: Fully remote within the continental United States.
Join Nearmap 's GTM Finance team as the Analyst who helps keep commission plans accurate, forecasts sharp, and cross-functional partners aligned. You'll sit at the center of Nearmap 's global go-to-market business — building operational budgets, running forecasts, and giving GTM leaders the financial read they need to make real decisions. This isn't a back-office reporting seat. You'll support planning discussions, and your numbers will shape what GTM departments actually do next.
Commission work is a core part of the role. You'll help drive commission plan design, own the calculations, and make sure the audit trail holds up — which means working closely with GTM, Sales Operations, Global FP&A, Accounting, Payroll, Legal, and HR. Six different teams, one number that has to be right every time. That's the job.
We're looking for someone with 2-4 years of experience as a Financial Analyst who already knows their way around KPI reporting, forecasting, and financial modeling — someone who builds relationships with stakeholders because they want the full picture, not because it's a line on a performance review. If you're a self-starter who'd rather flag a problem in commission calculations before it becomes an audit finding, this role is built for you.
