The Opportunity

We're looking for a Finance Manager to help us mature our FP&A function while fueling the next phase of Kin's growth. As Kin expands into new states and scales its product offerings, the demands on our financial planning infrastructure are growing fast — and this role sits at the center of it all.

This isn't a role where you'll maintain the status quo. You'll help evolve how we forecast, plan, and report — moving from the scrappy, high-speed finance work of an early-stage company to the board-ready rigor of a scaling insurtech. You'll work alongside leadership across the business, translating complex financial data into clear insights that drive smarter decisions at every level of the organization.

Your Responsibilities

- Lead cross-functional forecasting and budgeting processes, coordinating inputs across departments and keeping cycles on track

- Build and maintain headcount and operating expense budgets and forecasts as a trusted business partner to functional teams; track and optimize vendor expenses

- Administer and enhance Workday Adaptive Planning and other analytical tools, identifying opportunities to improve planning workflows and data integrity

- Deliver accurate, timely financial reports with clear, compelling insights that help business partners drive growth and efficiency

- Drive the development and ongoing refinement of operating models and financial forecasts, identifying trends and variance drivers against organizational goals

- Lead ad hoc financial modeling and analysis for strategic projects and special initiatives

- Leverage AI tools to streamline and scale FP&A processes, reducing manual effort and freeing up time for higher-value analysis

- Identify and implement future financial system and process enhancements to support Kin's continued growth

Success in This Role

In your first 6–12 months at Kin, success is less about checking boxes and more about the impact you create. You'll use your skills and judgment to take ownership of meaningful work, improve how we operate, and help move Kin's mission forward. Along the way, you'll deliver outcomes that make a real difference for both Kinfolk and the homeowners we serve.

By the end of your first year, you should feel confident in your role, trusted as an owner, and proud of the progress you've helped make.

- Leadership and the Board are receiving financial reporting that is cleaner, faster, and more actionable than before

- Cross-functional partners view finance as a true collaborator — budget conversations are grounded in shared data and move faster because of the systems and relationships you've built

- Workday Adaptive Planning is being used more effectively across Finance, with meaningful process improvements already implemented

- Kin has a more scalable financial planning infrastructure, with models and forecasting processes capable of supporting continued expansion into new states and products

What You'll Bring

- 5+ years of experience in FP&A or corporate finance, with direct ownership of expense and headcount forecasting — preferably within a high-growth P&C insurance or technology company

- Advanced proficiency in financial modeling and Microsoft Excel

- Hands-on experience administering Workday Adaptive Planning

- Demonstrated ability to translate financial concepts for business leaders outside of finance — you make numbers accessible, not intimidating

- Knowledge of GAAP; statutory accounting experience is a plus

- Experience leveraging AI tools to streamline FP&A processes and improve analytical efficiency

Bonus if you have:

- MBA, CFA, or CPA

- Experience in a high-growth insurtech or fintech environment

How We Hire

We believe a great hiring experience should be clear, respectful, and human. We will accept applications for this position until August 31, 2025. While our recruiting team uses AI tools for efficiency, resumes are still screened by Kin's in-house recruiters, and candidate evaluations and hiring decisions are made by recruiters and hiring teams. Rest assured, real people make real decisions.
