About the role:We're looking for a Finance Manager to join our Commercial FP&A team within Strategic Finance. This team member will own a diverse set of recurring deliverables and analyses that keep the business informed. The Commercial FP&A team acts as the analytical engine of the company, providing insights that support optimal business decision-making.
This role requires strong commercial finance acumen and a genuine interest in understanding the "why" behind the numbers. You'll support the narrative behind revenue performance for the Senior Leadership Team and Board-level materials, partner with Commercial and Sales Operations teams on GTM reporting, and help maintain the reporting infrastructure that leadership relies on for in-quarter decisions.
Responsibilities:- Own recurring revenue reporting workflows - daily/weekly file maintenance, revenue trackers, attainment dashboards, and variance analysis - ensuring accuracy and timely delivery at a daily cadence
- Prepare and update executive materials for KPI reviews, Board of Directors presentations, and SLT meetings, including slide updates, and supporting data files
- Conduct variance analysis on revenue movements and deliver clear, concise commentary that explains the "what" and the "why" behind performance trends
- Support quarterly sales target-setting - assembling bottoms-up data, reconciling against tops-down forecasts, and surfacing risks and opportunities for leadership discussion
- Own the commercial commission review process - synthesizing attainment data, identifying trends, and providing analysis that informs leadership's compensation and incentive decisions
- Execute ad-hoc analysis for Revenue, GTM, and Commercial leadership to support in-quarter decision-making
- Maintain and improve core financial reporting infrastructure - identifying opportunities to enhance accuracy, reduce manual effort, and improve consistency across deliverables
- Partner cross-functionally with Revenue, Sales Operations, and GTM teams to understand business drivers and translate them into financial context
- Apply a common-sense quality check to all outputs - flagging anomalies, verifying data integrity, and ensuring deliverables are clean and free of error
- Exercise independent judgment in prioritizing analyses and sequencing deliverables to maximize impact for commercial leadership
Requirements:- Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, Business, or a related field with 8+ years of relevant experience, or a Master's degree with 6+ years experience
- Expert-level Excel and Google Sheets skills - can build, troubleshoot, and maintain complex reporting files independently
- Strong data analysis capabilities with the ability to work across multiple data sources and reconcile discrepancies
- Excellent communication skills - can format data clearly for executive audiences and draft concise commentary
- Experience supporting executive-level reporting (KPI reviews, Board materials, SLT presentations)
- Ability to ramp quickly on existing processes and deliver reliably with minimal hand-holding
- Demonstrated ability to thrive in a fast-paced, results-oriented environment
