Senior Executive Business Partner, CFO

Job description

About this role

GitLab is the intelligent orchestration platform for DevSecOps. This role supports the Chief Financial Officer across scheduling, communications, planning and execution. The employer states it requires regular in-person availability in San Francisco, California, reflecting the hands-on nature of executive support within an otherwise remote-first company.

Responsibilities

• - Support the Chief Financial Officer with day-to-day operational and administrative needs across scheduling, communications, planning, and execution.
• - Maintain regular in-person availability in San Francisco, California.
• - Manage complex calendars by vetting requests, prioritizing meetings, and making clear recommendations about trade-offs.
• - Proactively manage inbound requests to the CFO by framing issues, surfacing options, and driving decisions forward.
• - Own and continuously improve the leadership cadences across the Office of the CFO, including staff meetings and planning rhythms.

Qualifications and requirements

• - Experience supporting senior executives in a fast-moving environment, with the judgment to navigate shifting priorities, sensitive matters, and real ambiguity.
• - A working style built on ownership: you anticipate what is needed, make calls where you can, and escalate only what genuinely requires it.
• - The ability to move quickly without sacrificing quality; disciplined execution, reliable output, and a high bar for follow-through.
• - Willingness to provide regular in-person support in San Francisco, California.
• - Comfort operating in a leaner, more empowered structure where fewer people own more.
