About Slate

At Slate, we’re building safe, reliable vehicles that people can afford, personalize and love—and doing it here in the USA as part of our commitment to reindustrialization. The spirit of DIY and customization runs throughout every element of a Slate, because people should have control over how their trucks look, feel, and represent them.

Who We Are Looking For

Slate’s Strategic Finance team is seeking a Senior Corporate Development Analyst to support the development and execution of the company’s long-term strategy and financial plan. This role partners closely with functional leaders across the organization to translate strategic priorities into actionable financial insights.

You will play a key role in operating Slate’s Long-Range Planning (LRP) process, developing a deep understanding of the business while supporting strategic initiatives and partnerships across the value chain. The ideal candidate is analytical, collaborative, and comfortable navigating ambiguity in a fast-paced environment.

What You’ll Do

  • Own and continuously refine the Long-Range Planning (LRP) process, ensuring it is scalable, repeatable, and aligned with business priorities
  • Partner with functional leaders to optimize revenue, operating expenses, capital spending, and workforce planning, driving informed trade-off decisions
  • Launch, manage, and evolve a portfolio of strategic initiatives and partnerships that support product launch and long-term growth
  • Deliver high-impact financial analysis and recommendations on business strategy, capital allocation, organizational design, and resource prioritization
  • Clearly narrate and visualize financial performance, linking changes in forecasts to operational drivers and key performance metrics
  • Partner closely with Corporate FP&A to align near-term forecasts with the long-range financial plan
  • Support fundraising and investor relations activities, including financial diligence, scenario analysis, and ad-hoc executive and investor requests
  • Lead ad-hoc analyses and special projects, operating effectively in ambiguity while driving solutions
  • Manage cross-functional workstreams and influence stakeholders without direct authority

What You Bring

  • 5+ years of experience in investment banking, private equity, corporate development, or strategic finance
  • Experience supporting industrial and/or technology companies preferred
  • Advanced financial modeling skills with significant daily use of Excel
  • Experience with Adaptive Insights or similar EPM tools preferred
  • Proven ability to manage cross-functional projects or transactions
  • Strong attention to detail and high standards for analytical and written work
  • Excellent communication skills across all organizational levels, including executive leadership and Board-level audiences
  • Ability to thrive in a fast-paced, evolving environment; willingness to travel as needed
  • Bachelor’s degree required

At Slate, we’re fueled by grit, determination, and attention to detail. The start-up spirit of ingenuity and resourcefulness move our business forward. Team Slate fosters a culture of excellence, innovation, and mutual respect, and is motivated by shared principles.
