Overview
The organization is seeking a Senior Manager of FP&A to join the Finance team. This is a high-impact, hands-on role responsible for the full planning cycle—from annual budgeting through monthly close to cash forecasting—while partnering with business leaders on strategy and performance.
Responsibilities
- Co-own the full FP&A cycle, including annual budgeting, quarterly reforecasts, monthly close and variance analysis, and rolling forward forecasts across headcount and Opex.
- Own cash flow forecasting by building and maintaining a rolling 12-month cash model using both direct and indirect methods; ensure the two reconcile and triangulate against each other.
- Monitor liquidity using scenario and sensitivity models to surface risks and opportunities to leadership in advance.
- Partner with GTM leaders (Marketing and Customer Success) to build bottoms-up expense models driven by operational KPIs and unit economics ratios, and track performance against plan.
- Own and standardize the SaaS KPI framework, including MRR, GDR, NDR, CAC, LTV, and payback period; translate metrics into actionable insights for the executive team and board.
- Expand the operational KPI library with operational efficiency and unit economics metrics across the business, including support ticket volume and resolution rate, agent-to-ticket ratios, cost per lead, pipeline conversion rates, and capacity-based cost drivers (e.g., per-seat or per-location spend).
- Update the LRP using these metrics as dynamic inputs so changes in business volume, headcount, or cost structure automatically flow through to the forecast.
- Drive continuous improvement of FP&A processes, tools, and reporting infrastructure.
Requirements
- 7+ years of FP&A experience with Big 4 accounting or investment banking background.
- Hands-on experience building and maintaining a 12-month rolling cash flow forecast using both the direct method (cash receipts and disbursements) and the indirect method (net income adjusted for non-cash items and working capital changes), with the ability to reconcile and triangulate the two outputs.
- Deep understanding of SaaS business models, ideally with exposure to product-led growth (PLG); fluent in MRR, ARR, GDR, NDR, logo retention, and cohort analysis.
- Strong command of GAAP accounting and three-statement modeling; ability to explain how operational decisions flow through the P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow statement.
- Demonstrated ability to leverage AI tools to improve productivity, accelerate analysis, and enhance accuracy of FP&A deliverables.
- Proven track record owning month-end close, variance analysis, and rolling forecasts in a high-growth environment.
- Exceptional business partnering skills; ability to build credibility with non-finance stakeholders across GTM and functional teams and influence decisions without formal authority.
- Strong communication skills; able to distill complex financial data into clear narratives for leadership and board audiences.
Preferred Qualifications
- Experience at a B2B SaaS company with a self-serve or PLG motion.
- Pre-IPO start-up experience.
- Prior experience building or scaling an FP&A function from early stage through growth.
