The Role
We are looking for a highly analytical FP&A professional to support our go-to-market organization, with a primary focus on operating expenses, investment planning, and performance analysis.
This role will provide hands-on financial planning and business partnership across GTM. You will manage expense forecasts, understand spending drivers, and help leaders evaluate hiring, programs, and other investments.
You will also support analysis of Sales capacity, productivity, CAC, and sales efficiency, and contribute to topline forecasting as needed. The role offers opportunities to expand into broader commercial-finance responsibilities over time.
Our approach to FP&A is simple: understand what happened, determine why it matters, and help the business decide what to do next.
