At Vanta, our mission is to help businesses earn and prove trust. We believe that security should be monitored and verified continuously, and we empower companies to practice better security and prove it with ease. Vanta has a kind and talented team, and while some have prior security experience, many have been successful at Vanta without it. 

As a Senior Data Analyst on the Finance team, you’ll play a pivotal role in uncovering the insights that shape company-wide planning, forecasting, and strategic decision-making. This high-impact role blends analytical rigor, technical fluency, and business acumen to steer strategy and identify opportunities for scalable growth.

The Finance Data team partners with both Finance and other teams across Vanta. You’ll collaborate closely with stakeholders to build trust and deliver data-driven recommendations; your work will influence everything from operating plans and investment decisions to self-serve reporting and process automation. This is a unique opportunity to deepen your analytics expertise in a dynamic, high-growth environment, with visibility into executive-level priorities and the ability to shape them with data.

What you’ll do as a Senior Data Analyst at Vanta:

  • Deliver strategic insights by conducting deep, prioritized analyses that inform high-impact financial decisions.

  • Act as a technical partner to teams across FP&A, Accounting, RevOps, Product, Marketing, and more.

  • Increase team efficiency by automating recurring deliverables and helping scale workflows as the company grows.

  • Empower decision-makers with self-service dashboards and data assets that surface trends and drive informed choices across the business.

  • Advance our analytics infrastructure by partnering with Data Engineering and other analytics teams to democratize access to high quality data and insights.

How to be successful in this role:

  • Experience: 4+ years of experience in data analysis or equivalent function. Exposure to FP&A, Accounting, or SaaS metrics is a plus.

  • Technical Skills: Strong proficiency in SQL and data visualization tools (e.g., Tableau, Sigma), with experience handling large and complex data sets. Familiarity with DBT is preferred. Bonus points for skill in Python for advanced analysis.

  • Analytical Thinking: Proven ability to analyze complex data sets, uncover key insights, and translate findings into actionable strategies that drive financial outcomes.

  • Collaboration: Demonstrated success working cross-functionally and building relationships across business teams. Comfortable engaging stakeholders with varying levels of data fluency.

  • Communication: Clear and effective communicator, both written and verbal. Skilled at presenting complex data insights to non-technical audiences.

  • Education: Bachelor’s degree in Data Analytics, Statistics, Informatics, Finance, Economics, Business, or a related field.

  • Must be authorized to work in the U.S. without the need for current or future employer sponsorship.

  • Open to using AI to amplify their skills and strengthen their work - demonstrating curiosity, a willingness to learn, and sound judgment in applying AI responsibly to improve efficiency and impact.

What you can expect as a Vanta’n:

  • Industry-competitive salary and equity

  • Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage, with 100% of employee-only benefit premiums covered for most medical plans

  • 16 weeks paid Parental Leave for all new parents

  • Health & wellness stipend

  • Remote workspace, internet, and cellphone stipend

  • Commuter benefits for team members who report to the SF and NYC office

At Vanta, we are committed to hiring diverse talent of different backgrounds and as such, it is important to us to provide an inclusive work environment for all. We do not discriminate on the basis of race, gender identity, age, religion, sexual orientation, veteran or disability status, or any other protected class. As an equal opportunity employer, we encourage and welcome people of all backgrounds to apply.

About Vanta

We started in 2018, in the wake of several high-profile data breaches. Online security was only becoming more important, but we knew firsthand how hard it could be for fast-growing companies to invest the time and manpower it takes to build a solid security foundation. Vanta was inspired by a vision to restore trust in internet businesses by enabling companies to improve and prove their security. From our early days automating security monitoring for compliance standards like SOC 2, HIPAA and ISO 27001 to creating the world's leading Trust Management Platform, our vision remains unchanged. 

Now more than ever, making security continuous—not just a point-in-time check— is essential. Thousands of companies rely on Vanta to build, maintain and demonstrate their trust— all in a way that's real-time and transparent.
