Full Job Description
The Role

We are hiring a hands-on FP&A Manager to serve as the analytical engine of our planning, reporting, and decision support. You will own core planning cycles and the reporting that goes to our executive team and board, build the KPI infrastructure that tells us how the business is really performing, and support the strategic work that comes with scaling toward IPO. This role begins as an individual contributor with a clear path to building and leading a team as the function grows.

What You Will Do
  • Support the annual budget process, quarterly reforecasts, and the rolling operating model, including revenue, headcount, and expense builds.
  • Prepare monthly and quarterly reporting packages with variance analysis and written commentary that explains the drivers, not just the deltas.
  • Build and maintain board and investor reporting materials in partnership with the Head of FP&A and the VP of Finance.
  • Track and improve the integrity of our SaaS efficiency metrics: CAC and payback, magic number, gross margin, and burn efficiency.
  • Improve our planning and reporting infrastructure, including the systems, data flows, and source-of-truth definitions that connect our ERP, CRM, and planning tools.
  • Partner with department leaders on headcount planning, spend management, and monthly budget reviews.
  • Build models that support strategic decisions such as pricing and packaging, product investment cases, fundraising, and evaluation of inorganic opportunities.
  • Olik9
What You Bring
  • 5-8 years in FP&A, corporate finance, investment banking, private equity, or consulting, with meaningful exposure to high-growth SaaS. Depth of ownership matters more to us than years served.
  • Advanced financial modeling skills and expert fluency in Excel or Google Sheets, with the judgment to know when a model should be simple.
  • Working knowledge of modern planning tools (for example Pigment, Runway, Mosaic, or Anaplan) and comfort with SQL or BI tools is a plus.
  • A strong command of accounting fundamentals and how they shape planning, reporting, and revenue recognition.
  • Clear written and verbal communication. You can distill a complex analysis into a recommendation that a non-finance leader can act on.
  • A high degree of ownership and comfort operating with ambiguity in a fast-moving environment.
