Full Job Description
About the Role:

We are looking for a Senior Manager, FP&A to be the finance business partner to our Corporate or GTM organization. You will own the overall or GTM P&Ls and build the driver-based models behind some of the most consequential questions in SaaS finance today: what is the right plan, where we should invest, and make course corrections. You will partner directly with our Senior Leadership Team on investment decisions, headcount, and unit economics, and manage and develop a Senior Financial Analyst. You will join our global Finance team, report to the VP of FP&A, and work alongside the other FP&A leads - with scope that will grow as Camunda does.

What you'll be doing:
  • Business Partnership: Serve as the primary finance partner to SLT, supporting decisions on hiring, investment prioritization, and resource allocation
  • P&L Ownership: Own the P&Ls end to end - budgeting, monthly forecasting, variance analysis, and the "what changed, why it matters, what we do next" narrative for leadership.
  • Financial Modeling: Build and continuously improve driver-based models, such as the long-range plan, bookings model, and ad hoc analyses.
  • Planning & Forecasting: Lead planning cadences (annual, quarterly, monthly outlooks) and integrate business partners' inputs into the corporate forecast alongside our FP&A leads.
  • Team Leadership: Manage and develop one Senior Financial Analyst, setting priorities and raising the bar on quality and speed of analysis.
  • Systems & Automation: Own Adaptive Planning administration and maintenance, and drive AI-augmented workflows that make FP&A faster and more scalable.

What you bring:
  • Ability and/or willingness to use our product.
  • 6+ years of progressive FP&A or strategic finance experience, including directly partnering with C-Level, and/or CRO/CMO
  • Direct people management experience (you've hired, coached, and managed the performance of finance team members, not just mentored or led projects)
  • Deep fluency in SaaS cost structures and unit economics - cloud/hosting costs, CoGS vs. OpEx, gross margin drivers - with proven driver-based modeling skills (forecasting from usage and consumption drivers, not trending actuals)
  • Hands-on experience building in an enterprise planning platform (Adaptive, Anaplan, Pigment, Planful, or similar) plus advanced spreadsheet skills - we'll ramp you on Adaptive Planning
  • Clear, executive-ready communicator who works autonomously and with focus, integrity, and humility

Nice-to-haves:
  • Adaptive Planning experience specifically (you'll own our instance)
  • Salesforce
  • Experience using AI tools (e.g., Claude) to automate finance workflows - this team builds with AI daily
