Through this, the FP&A team guides the company through financial hurdles, fuels growth opportunities, and ultimately drives long-term success.

- Build business cases for major investments with clear assumptions, risk quantification, and second-order effects — giving leadership the analytical foundation to make high-confidence decisions.
- Design and improve planning processes, tooling, and data definitions that reduce rework across teams and raise the quality of financial outputs org-wide.
- Lead cross-functional analyses with clear milestones and owners, resolving forecast disagreements with principled rationale and crisp financial narratives tailored to each audience.

We're Looking For Someone Who Has
- 5–8 years of FP&A or Strategic Finance GTM experience in high-growth SaaS, with demonstrated ownership of a planning domain end-to-end
- Proven ability to design planning processes and frameworks — not just operate within them — and to influence decisions across teams without direct authority
- Expert-level financial modeling skills; fluent in SaaS unit economics, driver-based forecasting, 3-statement modeling, and scenario/sensitivity analysis
- Deep expertise across GTM; experience partnering with senior functional leaders on budget strategy and investment decisions
- Strong SQL skills and experience working with BI tools, FP&A platforms, and ERP systems; comfortable specifying data needs and improving data quality upstream
- Excellent communication skills — can distill complex financial analysis into crisp narratives tailored to exec audiences
- BS/BA in Economics, Finance, Accounting, or related field; MBA or CFA a plus
