BUILD A SAFER WORLD.

TRM Labs provides blockchain analytics and AI solutions to help law enforcement and national security agencies, financial institutions, and cryptocurrency businesses detect, investigate, and disrupt crypto-related fraud and financial crime. TRM’s blockchain intelligence and AI platforms include solutions to trace the source and destination of funds, identify illicit activity, build cases, and construct an operating picture of threats. TRM is trusted by leading agencies and businesses worldwide who rely on TRM to enable a safer, more secure world for all.

As a Manager in Strategic Finance, you will play a critical role in shaping TRM’s financial trajectory by driving rigorous planning, analysis, and reporting with a primary focus on supporting GTM strategy and execution. Reporting to the Head of Strategic Finance, you’ll partner closely with Sales, Marketing, Revenue Operations, and Customer Success to deliver insights that help TRM scale efficiently and strategically. You’ll lead core FP&A rhythms — including forecasting, reporting, and long-range planning — while building dynamic models and crafting clear, compelling narratives for executives, the board, and investors. This role is a strong fit for an analytically rigorous, detail-oriented finance athlete who thrives in a fast-paced environment and enjoys solving complex problems collaboratively.

Strategic Finance at TRM is still early — you will shape not just the business, but also the team and culture as we build a world-class function. This role is an exceptional launch pad for an ambitious finance professional seeking outsized impact, close mentorship, and accelerated growth.

The impact you will have:

• Lead monthly and quarterly forecasting and reporting rhythms, with deep ownership of GTM forecasts (bookings, ARR, pipeline, and headcount), partnering closely with the Head of Strategic Finance

• Own budget-vs-actuals updates for GTM functions, identifying variances across sales capacity, marketing spend, and customer acquisition metrics

• Develop board-ready materials and compelling financial narratives related to growth performance, efficiency, and ROI for executive reviews and company all-hands meetings

• Support comprehensive top-down and bottoms-up financial planning for 2026 and beyond, including sales capacity modeling, quota planning, and growth scenarios

• Build models and templates to inform GTM investment decisions, including hiring, target setting, and marketing mix

• Drive strategic projects — including pricing and packaging, sales compensation economics, vendor optimization, ROI analysis, and more

• Assist with investor reporting and fundraising, articulating TRM’s GTM strategy, unit economics, and path to efficient scale, with a path toward increasing ownership and responsibility

What we’re looking for:

• 4–7 years of experience across investment banking, investing, consulting, or finance at a high-growth tech company

• Experience supporting revenue-driving or customer-facing teams (Sales, Marketing, RevOps, or CS) strongly preferred

• Expert-level Excel and Google Sheets modeling skills

• Clarity and polish in writing and presentations

• Experience with planning cycles (monthly, quarterly, annual)

• Comfort with working independently and proactively driving outcomes

• Degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or Business Administration preferred; MBA a plus

LIFE AT TRM

We are building a safer world. That promise shows up in how we work every day.

TRM moves quickly. We are a high velocity, high ownership team that expects clarity, follow-through, and impact. People who thrive here are energized by hard problems, experimentation, and continuous feedback. If something takes months elsewhere, it will ship here in days.

Our work sits at the intersection of AI, national security, and fighting financial crime. The problems are complex, the stakes are real, and the environment evolves quickly. The pace and intensity of the work reflect the importance of the mission. As a result, the way we operate requires a high level of ownership, adaptability, collaboration, and creative problem-solving.

At TRM, you should expect:

• Priorities and targets to change quickly as we experiment and iterate

• Work that often requires operating with a high degree of ambiguity

• A high level of personal ownership and accountability

• Close collaboration across teams and functions

• Frequent, high-touch communication

• Creative problem solving and out-of-the-box thinking

• A pace that rewards urgency, adaptability, and outcomes

This environment is energizing for people who enjoy building, solving hard problems, and making progress in situations that are not always fully defined. It also requires comfort navigating ambiguity, adjusting course as new information emerges, and maintaining focus and positivity in a fast-moving and intense environment.

We also recognize that this style of operating is not for everyone. If you are primarily optimizing for predictability or a consistently balanced workload, we encourage you to use the interview process to pressure test whether this environment is truly the right fit. We want teammates who thrive here, not just survive here.

At the same time, many people find this work deeply rewarding. If you are excited by meaningful problems, motivated by ambitious goals, and energized by working alongside mission-driven colleagues, there is a good chance you will find TRM to be an exceptional place to grow and contribute.

• Accelerate repeatable workflows

• Structure and solve problems
