Overview

At Lupa, we're hiring a Manager, Strategic Finance for a fast-growing, vertically integrated fiber internet provider serving customers across Colombia and expanding internationally. Backed by a recently closed $40M Series B and top-tier investors, this is a company building its own network infrastructure and software — a genuinely capital-intensive, high-velocity business with big strategic decisions on the table.

This is a strategic analysis and decision-support seat, first and foremost. You'll be the analytical horsepower behind the company's biggest bets — pricing, expansion, M&A, competitive response — and you'll support the VP of Finance on capital raises, diligence, and investor relations. If you love taking an ambiguous question and turning it into a defensible, board-ready recommendation, this is your kind of role.

You'll join a lean, hungry finance team at a company that's the belle of the ball in LATAM: strong brand, strong funding, and a leadership team that mixes US pedigree with LATAM roots. For the right person, this is a chance to punch above your weight and shape decisions that move the business.

What You'll Do

• Lead ad-hoc analysis on major strategic questions and drive the resulting decisions through the business

• Evaluate M&A, partnership, and market-expansion opportunities — and build the business case

• Build competitive and market intelligence: benchmarking, market sizing, and positioning

• Develop strategic frameworks (expansion IRR, unit economics at scale, scenario trade-offs) through to implementation

• Proactively surface strategic risks and opportunities, with clear recommendations

• Support modeling for strategic decisions — M&A cases, financing scenarios, capital-structure trade-offs

• Build and maintain standalone models for initiatives outside the core FP&A model

• Stress-test assumptions on major financial decisions before they reach the board

• Support capital raise processes (equity and debt): data room prep, diligence responses, and potentially leading fundraising workstreams

• Support investor-facing materials and board narrative

• Assist with cap table and equity administration tracking

• Help manage the investor and lender relationship calendar

Who You Are

Must-haves

• Pre-MBA or MBA experience in investment banking, private equity, or growth equity — this is the technical-horsepower anchor of the role

• Demonstrated ability to run ad-hoc financial/strategic analysis that leads to real business decisions, with strong velocity and thoroughness

• Strong financial modeling skills — complex scenario and decision models

• Full bilingual proficiency in Spanish and English (written and spoken)

• AI-native — demonstrable use of AI in modeling, analysis, and drafting

• Polished communicator, credible with leadership, investors, and lenders

• Sharp analytical thinker with high editorial standards on investor/board materials

Nice-to-haves

• MBA (new or recent grad), ideally with a management consulting stint layered onto the banking/PE background

• Exposure to capital raise or diligence processes

• Background in telecoms, ISP, infrastructure, or subscription businesses (capital-intensive, CapEx-heavy environments are a strong plus)

• Experience with LATAM capital markets or cross-border financing

• Experience with debt financing / credit facilities

What's In It For You

• Compensation: Competitive, top-of-market pay for top talent. Target range approximately COP $25–35M/month (roughly USD $8,000–10,000/month), calibrated to experience and location.

• Location: Medellín or Bogotá preferred; open to other LATAM cities, plus Miami, Houston, and NYC. Native/strong Spanish speaker required.

• Work model: Remote-friendly with light, ad-hoc travel to Medellín — approximately 10–20% of time, as needed (lighter than other finance roles on the team).

• Reporting & scope: Reports to the VP of Finance. Individual contributor with no direct reports initially.

• Growth: High-visibility seat with direct exposure to executive leadership, investors, and lenders at a Series B company scaling fast — a strong platform for career acceleration as the company moves toward its next raise.

• Benefits: Standard benefits package aligned to your hiring geography and employment model (local entity, contractor, or EOR).
