Full Job Description
About the role:
Curri is seeking an FP&A Director to build and own the company's financial planning and analysis function from the ground up. Right now finance bandwidth is stretched, and this role adds dedicated FP&A leadership to own forecasting, budgeting, variance analysis, and board reporting. You will inherit a functioning but underbuilt finance function and make it meaningfully better: faster reporting, cleaner models, and significantly less manual work, deploying modern tooling and AI to get there.
What you will do:
Work with the finance team to redesign Curri's financial reporting infrastructure, moving from ad-hoc models to automated, scalable systems built on top of our existing data
Build and maintain automated monthly and quarterly reporting workflows that reduce manual effort and increase accuracy and speed
Deploy tools to accelerate financial analysis, scenario modeling, and narrative generation
Establish performance dashboards and KPIs that scale with the business and give leadership real-time insight
Lead and evolve Curri's core financial models including operating forecasts, budgets, and long-range plans in close partnership with the CFO and VP Finance
Build sophisticated models from scratch and improve existing ones and break complex business problems into clean financial components
Review monthly and quarterly budget variances and partner with department leads to identify drivers and recommend action
Support strategic initiatives through scenario analysis, ROI modeling, and ad hoc financial research
Lead the preparation of executive-level financial reporting and board-ready presentations, partnering with the CFO to deliver clear analysis and narrative
Translate financial data into actionable insights for senior leadership and cross-functional partners
Contribute to investor and board materials as the company continues to scale
Be the go-to financial resource for strategic and analytical requests across the business
Partner with executives across Sales, Operations, and Product to support planning, performance tracking, and decision-making
Analyze trends, variances, and key drivers to explain business performance and inform next steps
Serve as a close thought partner to the CFO, VP Finance and C-suite team on improving financial visibility, rigor, and execution across the company
What you need to have:
5-8 years of experience in FP&A, strategic finance, or a similar analytical finance role
Expert financial modeling skills, with the ability to build models from scratch and translate complex data into clean, actionable insights
Strong familiarity with modern FP&A tools and enough experience to know what to avoid and what to optimize for
Demonstrated experience implementing and using AI tools to accelerate financial analysis, reporting, or forecasting, not experimentation but shipped work
Systems-builder mindset that designs scalable processes and automations before defaulting to manual effort or headcount
High ownership and ability to operate independently in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment
Experience working cross-functionally in a high-growth startup or similar environment
Bonus points for:
SQL proficiency and the ability to pull and manipulate data directly from source systems
Experience in a venture-backed startup or fast-scaling environment
Exposure to SaaS, marketplace, or operations-heavy business models
Familiarity with Curri's market: construction materials, last-mile logistics, or industrial supply chains
Based in Southern California with proximity to Ventura HQ for periodic in-person collaboration
What is in it for you?
Meaningful ownership and direct impact on company growth, with visibility into the full business from Day 1 and a close working relationship with the CFO
Opportunity to modernize and shape Curri's financial planning function, building it alongside a team invested in getting it right
Remote-friendly role with preference for Ventura-based candidates
Competitive salary, equity, and full benefits including health, dental, vision, and 401k
A team focused on meaningful work, personal growth, and long-term impact
