  • Transform FP&A with Databricks: Lead the charge in changing how FP&A operates by embedding the Databricks platform, AI, and machine learning into core finance workflows—moving the team from descriptive reporting to scalable automation and predictive analytics.

  • Executive Visibility & Communication: Own the narrative. Run FP&A leadership forums, orchestrate the OKR and Quarterly Business Review (QBR) processes, and deliver high-impact executive communications to the CFO, Head of Sales, and other top-level leaders.

  • Commercialization & Scale: Provide a strategic lens on commercialization and scale, ensuring financial processes seamlessly support evolving product strategies, pricing models, and GTM motions.

What they're looking for

  • Strategic FP&A Expertise: Deep, foundational knowledge of FP&A architecture, combined with a distinct bias toward strategy and business transformation rather than purely routine operations.
  • Transformation Catalyst: Proven success leading large-scale corporate transformations, re-architecting legacy workflows, and successfully managing the organizational change that comes with new technologies.
  • Data & AI Tech Fluency: Experience implementing or managing AI, machine learning, or advanced automation tools within a finance org. Familiarity with SQL, Python, or data analytics platforms is highly desirable; a passion for leveraging the Databricks platform to solve financial complexity is required.
  • Elite Executive Presence: Exceptional communication and presentation skills (expert-level Google Slides). Ability to command a room, influence senior executives, and distill complex financial transformations into clear, actionable strategies.
