• Deliver cash flow forecasts and working capital analysis.
• Lead, coach, and strengthen the FP&A team as it expands.
• Maintain strong governance, consistency, and data integrity across finance processes.
• Provide leadership to direct reports and help shape the team as the organization grows.

Requirements

• CPA certification, or an equivalent professional accounting qualification, is required.
• 8-12+ years of progressive finance experience, including leadership in FP&A.
• Experience in a private equity-backed, high-growth business is preferred.

• Demonstrated ability to design processes and scale finance operations in a growing company.
• Strong advanced Excel skills and solid financial modelling capability.

What We Offer

• A collaborative and fast-moving corporate environment.
• The chance to lead and develop a high-performing FP&A team.
• Opportunities for professional growth and ongoing development.
• A competitive compensation and benefits package.
• Work that can have a meaningful impact on a growing organization.
