Job Description
Job Title: Manager, Corporate FP&A
Hybrid/Remote: Remote
Schedule: Fulltime
Pay Rate: $125/hr to $135.13/hr, DOE
Job Responsibilities:
- Serve as the owner of our Adaptive Planning financial planning system: build, maintain, and continuously improve the models, workflows, and data integrations (NetSuite, Workday HCM, and other source systems) that power company-wide planning and reporting.
- Partner across Corporate FP&A on core planning, forecasting, analysis, and reporting cycles, including variance analysis against plan and forecast, and surfacing the key issues, risks, and business drivers leadership needs to see.
- Consolidate financial forecasts and build the presentations and narratives shared directly with senior executives.
- Partner closely with Accounting on changes to financial statement presentation and ensure consistency across systems.
- Bring AI and automation into everyday FP&A work, using tools like Claude Cowork to speed up analysis, streamline reporting, and free up time for higher-value strategic work.
- Take on ad hoc analysis and cross-functional financial projects as they come up, because in this role, they will.
Job Qualifications:
- Finance/FP&A Expertise
- Proven experience in Corporate FP&A: planning, forecasting, variance analysis, and executive-level reporting.
- A track record of being a trusted advisor to business partners and earning a seat at the table with leadership.
- Strong command of financial statements and the ability to communicate complex financial results clearly and confidently, in writing and in the room.
- Systems & Technical Expertise
- Hands-on experience with Adaptive Planning (Adaptive Insights) or a comparable financial planning platform such as Oracle Hyperion, SAP, Anaplan, Pigment, or Planful.
- Experience designing, building, or implementing planning systems and data integrations, not just using them.
- Comfort working with data beyond the planning tool itself: SQL, databases, and reporting systems are a real plus.
- Practical experience using AI tools (like Claude Cowork) to work faster and smarter. We're looking for candidates who already think of AI as part of their everyday toolkit, not a novelty.
- Who You Are
- Strong academic record and intellectual horsepower. We're looking for a true "athlete": someone who is sharp, curious, and has consistently been at the top of the room, academically and professionally.
- Highly analytical, detail-oriented, and comfortable moving fluidly between deep technical work and executive-level strategy.
- A learner. You pick up new systems, tools, and technologies quickly and enjoy staying ahead of them.
- A team player who brings energy, ownership, and a high bar to everything you touch.
