Strategic Finance Manager
About Pivotal Health
Pivotal Health is the leading technology platform that helps healthcare providers get paid fairly in an increasingly complex reimbursement landscape.
Today, many providers face persistent underpayment from health insurance companies, despite delivering high-quality care. While processes like IDR (Independent Dispute Resolution) were designed to promote fairness, they’re often administrative-heavy, time-consuming, and difficult to navigate without the right tools.
Pivotal Health combines software, data, and service into a seamlessly integrated, AI-driven platform that simplifies these complex reimbursement workflows. We help providers efficiently dispute underpaid claims, reduce administrative burden, and recover the reimbursement they’re entitled to; without adding more work to already stretched teams.
Our full-service IDR solution is just the starting point. We’re building solutions that enable providers to operate with clarity, control, and confidence across the reimbursement journey.
About the Role
We’re looking for a Strategic Finance Manager to join our growing Strategic Finance team. This is a highly analytical, high-ownership role for someone who is comfortable tackling ambiguous business questions, determining what data and analyses are needed, and building the answer from the ground up.
You’ll lead high-priority financial and strategic analyses, work directly with leaders across the business, and help build financial infrastructure and decision-support capabilities needed as Pivotal scales.
This role reports directly to our Director of Strategic Finance and Analytics.
What You’ll Do
Own complex financial and strategic analyses from initial question through recommendation, often with limited precedent or existing structure
Build financial models from scratch to evaluate new products, pricing, unit economics, investments, partnerships, and other strategic decisions
Analyze large and sometimes messy operational and financial datasets to identify trends, explain business performance, and surface actionable insights
Work cross-functionally with Finance, Business Operations, Analytics, Product, Growth, and other teams to gather information, validate assumptions, and get to the right answer
Develop a deep understanding of the operational drivers behind Pivotal’s financial performance and translate them into forecasts, models, and decision-making frameworks
Support forecasting, long-range planning, scenario analysis, and other core Strategic Finance initiatives as needed
Lead special projects and strategic initiatives from scoping through execution, including projects that sit outside traditional FP&A
Support investor and Board materials, including financial analysis, performance narratives, and strategic insights
Support capital raises and other financing or strategic transactions as opportunities arise
Help improve the tools, processes, and analytical infrastructure used by the Strategic Finance team as the company scales
Serve as a key thought partner to the Director of Strategic Finance and Analytics, flexing across the highest-priority questions facing the business
Who You Are
Completed a formal analyst training program in investment banking or a similarly rigorous analytical environment
3-5 years of investment banking experience; additional experience in strategic finance, investing, or a high-growth operating environment is a plus
Exceptional financial modeling and analytical skills, with a demonstrated ability to build sophisticated analyses from a blank sheet
Highly comfortable working with large datasets and reconciling information across multiple sources to develop a clear view of the business
Able to independently identify what information is needed, find the right stakeholders, and drive toward an answer without waiting for a perfectly defined process
Strong business judgment and ability to move fluidly between detailed analysis and executive-level implications
Comfortable operating in a fast-moving environment where priorities and questions can change quickly
Advanced Excel skills and a willingness to use modern AI and analytical tools to work more efficiently
Strong communicator who can turn complex analysis into clear, concise recommendations
High level of ownership, curiosity, and attention to detail
Extra Credit if you have:
Healthcare or startup experience.
