Description
About the Role
We are seeking a world-class, highly analytical, and business-driven FP&A Director (Individual Contributor) to join our finance team, reporting directly to the CFO and to partner directly with our executive leadership team. This is a high-visibility, super-strategic role designed for a heavy-hitter who thrives on complete autonomy and possesses exceptional financial and analytical capabilities.
This is a rare hybrid role: we need a high-level strategic thinker who is equally thrilled to roll up their sleeves, dive into the raw data, and build complex models from scratch (100% hands-on). You will act as an internal strategic consultant, embedded deeply with our commercial leaders to dissect funnels, optimize sales efficiency, and deliver actionable insights that shape our growth trajectory.
Responsibilities
· Executive & Board Partnership: Serve as the primary finance partner to the executive team. Lead the creation of high-impact financial narratives, investor relations materials, and strategic presentations for Board of Directors meetings and fundraising initiatives.
· Go-To-Market & Revenue Analytics: Partner closely with Marketing and RevOps to analyze full-funnel metrics, pipeline health, Customer Acquisition Cost (CAC) efficiency, and net dependency/churn trends.
· SaaS Unit Economics & Pricing: Own the financial analysis of SaaS unit economics, Lifetime Value (LTV), Lifetime Value to CAC ratios, and provide strategic deal-desk financial support to optimize contract margins and pricing structures.
· Next-Gen Financial Intelligence: Architect, own, and scale the company’s complex forecasting models, budget-vs-actual (BVA) frameworks, and rolling forecasts.
· AI & Automation Architecture: Lead the implementation of an AI-first approach to financial planning. Build and maintain advanced dashboards using BI and AI-powered platforms to maximize automated reporting and predictive analytics, eliminating traditional manual workflows.
· Operational Efficiency: Proactively identify margin expansion opportunities and cost-efficiency initiatives through rigorous benchmarking, gross margin analysis, and operational deep-dives.
Requirements
· Experience: 6+ years of progressive FP&A or corporate finance experience, with a proven track record in hyper-growth SaaS companies or leading tech ecosystems known for rigorous, data-driven cultures.
· Seniority & Executive Presence: Director-level business acumen with the confidence, articulation, and corporate storytelling skills required to influence senior executives, institutional investors, and the Chairman.
· GTM Expertise: Deep, hands-on experience working alongside Go-To-Market teams, sales funnels, and modern Revenue Operations frameworks.
· 100% Hands-On Autonomy: Proven capability to operate as a sole contributor—capable of executing complex projects and models independently without relying on a large team for execution.
· Tech & AI Native: Exceptional proficiency with advanced financial modeling and BI tools (e.g., Tableau, Power BI, Looker). Active mastery or deep eagerness to integrate generative AI and automation workflows into daily finance operations.
· Language: Complete fluency in English (both written and verbal) is an absolute requirement.
Education & Qualifications
· Bachelor’s degree in a highly quantitative or business field.
· MBA, CPA, or advanced analytical degree is a strong advantage, but proven "battle-tested" analytical brilliance in a top-tier tech company is valued above all.
