The Opportunity

The Manager of FP&A is a critical finance leadership role responsible for driving enterprise-wide financial planning, forecasting, reporting, and performance analysis across the business. This individual will own key elements of the monthly close-to-reporting cycle, lead budgeting and forecasting processes, and provide decision support to senior leadership, including the CFO, VP of Finance, and operational executives. 

 

This role is highly visible within the organization and plays a key part in supporting a PE-backed growth strategy, including M&A integration, margin expansion, and operational efficiency initiatives. 

 

The ideal candidate thrives in a fast-paced, evolving environment and brings a balance of technical finance expertise, strong business partnership, and process improvement mindset. This role will establish foundational FP&A infrastructure where formal processes are nascent. 

Key Responsibilities

  • Oversee corporate budgeting, forecasting, and financial analysis to ensure accuracy and alignment with company objectives. 
  • Lead monthly financial reporting, including variance analysis of actual vs. budgeted performance for corporate functions (People, Finance, IT) 
  • Prepare and present materials for monthly/quarterly PE sponsor reviews and board meetings. 
  • Own and maintain debt reporting, consolidated EBITDA walk, including management add-backs, synergy tracking, and bridge analysis 
  • Drive automation and process improvements within FP&A, implementing tools for enhanced data analytics and reporting. 
  • Build and mentor a high-performing FP&A team, fostering professional development and analytical excellence. 

What You Bring to the Table

  • 5-8 years of corporate finance, consulting, transaction advisory or investment banking experience. 
  • Experience in a PE-backed environment with direct exposure to PE reporting, board materials, and lender/covenant reporting strongly preferred. 
  • Bachelor's in Finance, Accounting, or related field; MBA/CPA a plus. 
  • Advanced proficiency in financial modeling, forecasting, and business intelligence tools (Excel, Power BI, SQL). 
  • Deep understanding of consolidated P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow; experience with debt schedule management and financial covenant tracking. 
  • Experience supporting budgeting, forecasting, and executive-level reporting cycles. 
  • Demonstrated track record of operating with a high degree of ownership and urgency — comfortable driving deliverables in ambiguous environments where answers are not always pre-defined. 
  • Proven ability to manage multiple priorities and lead cross-functional projects in a fast-paced environment. 

What Will Make You Stand Out?

  • You have an MBA, CPA, or another advanced degree or certification in Finance, Accounting, or a related discipline.
  • You have experience working in a private equity-backed environment with exposure to scaling operations, integrations, and more advanced reporting expectations.
  • You have a background supporting a multi-location, field service, or operationally complex business.
  • You have prior involvement in financial systems improvements, reporting automation, or building new FP&A processes and dashboards.
