FP&A Contractor

About the job

Manager, Corporate FP&A/Contract/Remote

You'll own and evolve our financial planning system (Adaptive Planning) while also rolling up your sleeves on core Corporate FP&A work: planning, forecasting, analysis, and reporting that goes straight to senior leadership. It's a rare hybrid role for someone who wants to be equally excellent at the technical and the strategic.

What You'll Do

• 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.

What You'll Bring

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.
