About the role

This role will be a key asset in the future growth of the company.
The Financial Planning and Analysis Manager will be driving the Company's financial forecast, annual budgeting process, operating plan variance analysis, and special projects.
This position reports directly to the CFO and is expected to work from our Chicago office 3-5 days per week.

Own the integrated three-statement model, synergy model, and a rolling 13-week cash forecast.
This function acts as the analytical engine of the company to provide insights and support 'optimal' business decision-making.
Build board, lender, and exec reporting from raw data to final deck: KPI packages, covenant compliance, monthly financials. It ships clean and on time.
Pressure-test new investments. Build the 80/20 ROI case; greenlight or kill on the numbers.

You know what a credit agreement and a board deck demand.
Bachelor's in finance, economics, accounting, or a quantitative field.
5 to 7 years in FP&A, investment banking, private equity, or corporate finance. High-growth or PE-backed environments strongly preferred.
Fluency in unit economics and contribution-margin thinking. You see a P&L as a system of drivers, not a stack of line items.
Elite financial modeling. You build three-statement, scenario, and sensitivity models from a blank sheet. No reliance on templates.
Board- and lender-grade reporting experience. You know what a credit agreement and a board deck demand.
SQL, Python, and BI tools like Looker and Tableau. You either know them or you'll learn them fast. Same goes for using Claude and other AI tools to automate the reporting grind and move faster than the team that's still doing it by hand.
Marketplace, on-demand, logistics, or insurance-adjacent experience a plus.
High tolerance for speed, ambiguity, and direct feedback. You go from raw data to a recommendation without being managed to it.

Pressure-test new investments.
greenlight or kill on the numbers.
Not a back-office scorekeeper.
Automate the reporting grind (Looker / Excel / Python) so your time goes to insight, not data wrangling.
5 to 7 years in FP&A, investment banking, private equity, or corporate finance.
High-growth or PE-backed environments strongly preferred.
Fluency in unit economics and contribution-margin thinking.
You see a P&L as a system of drivers, not a stack of line items.

Build and own the company's financial forecast and annual operating plan. Set the cadence, drive the inputs out of every function, and hold the business to the number.
