·    Lead P&L forecasting, variance analysis, gross-margin and COGS analysis.

·    Create timely daily and weekly performance views that identify variance drivers early and translate them into clear actions for Finance and business leaders.

·    Develop executive materials and narratives for Programmatic leaders, including performance readouts, forecast updates, and decision support.

·    Partner with Commercial Finance on quarterly revenue-target modeling.

·    Advance automation and data reliability across Snowflake, Adaptive Planning, Workday, and reporting tools, reducing manual effort and increasing confidence in performance and forecast reporting.

·    Establish strong controls and documentation around forecast inputs, reporting logic, and recurring data-quality checks.

What you will bring

·    7+ years of progressive experience in FP&A, data analytics, revenue forecasting, business analytics, or strategic finance; experience supporting a high-growth, data-rich commercial business is strongly preferred.

·    Demonstrated ownership of a revenue, gross-profit, or P&L forecast and the ability to explain performance drivers, risks, and tradeoffs to senior leaders.

·    Strong analytical and financial-modeling skills, including comfort working with large and imperfect data sets and turning analysis into a point of view.

·    Experience with planning, financial-reporting, and data tools such as Adaptive Planning, Workday, Snowflake, SQL, Tableau, Power BI, or similar platforms.

·    Excellent executive communication skills. You can make a clear recommendation, explain the underlying evidence, and tailor the message for a senior business audience.

·    A collaborative operating style with the judgment to challenge assumptions constructively and work across Finance, Sales, Operations, and data teams.
