You bring 10+ years of progressive finance experience in FP&A, Strategic Finance, or revenue operations, with deep, hands-on knowledge of quote-to-cash and procure-to-pay processes.

- Partner with Legal, Accounting, and business owners to implement and ensure adherence to a tiered approval framework commensurate with spend risk
- Build the operating expense forecasting and accrual processes that give FP&A reliable visibility into committed and incurred spend
- Support the implementation of financial planning tools and systems in partnership with Finance and IT
- Create the monthly/quarterly operating cadence: actuals reviews, variance analysis, and re-forecast processes for assigned functions within the organization
- Support the build and delivery of the annual operating plan and budget
Job requirements
- 10+ years of progressive finance experience in FP&A, Strategic Finance, revenue operations, or finance business partner roles
