FP&A Contractor

Overview

This role combines ownership of a financial planning system with hands-on Corporate FP&A responsibilities, including planning, forecasting, analysis, and executive reporting. You will help evolve the company’s planning platform (Adaptive Planning) while partnering across Corporate FP&A to deliver insights and narratives for senior leadership.

Responsibilities

• Own and continuously improve the Adaptive Planning financial planning system by building, maintaining, and enhancing models, workflows, and data integrations.
  • Integrations include NetSuite, Workday HCM, and other source systems.
• Partner with Corporate FP&A on planning, forecasting, analysis, and reporting cycles, including variance analysis against plan and forecast.
• Identify and surface key issues, risks, and business drivers leadership needs to understand.
• Consolidate financial forecasts and develop executive presentations and narratives.
• Partner with Accounting on changes to financial statement presentation and ensure consistency across systems.
• Bring AI and automation into day-to-day FP&A workflows to speed up analysis, streamline reporting, and free time for higher-value strategic work.
• Perform ad hoc analysis and cross-functional financial projects as needed.

Requirements

• Track record of being a trusted advisor to business partners and demonstrating influence with leadership.

• Practical experience using AI tools (including Claude Cowork) to work faster and smarter.
  • Interest in integrating AI into everyday work, not treating it as a novelty.

Preferred Qualifications

• Strong academic record.
• Highly analytical and detail-oriented approach, with comfort shifting between technical work and executive-level strategy.
