Role Overview:

As Director of Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A), you’ll be both architect and operator—leading planning, forecasting, and performance analysis across global functions while rolling up your sleeves to build models, dig into data, and drive clarity. This is a true player-coach role: you’ll mentor and guide, but also execute with precision. You’ll serve as a trusted partner to senior leadership and a cross-functional catalyst for smarter, faster decisions. This is a hybrid role based in Houston, Texas.

 Key Responsibilities:

• Lead global budgeting, forecasting, and long-range planning processes across departments
• Build and maintain dynamic financial models to support scenario planning and strategic decision-making
• Partner with Sales, Marketing, Product, Engineering and Services to drive cross-functional initiatives and optimize resource allocation
• Own monthly and quarterly reporting packages, including variance analysis and executive dashboards
• Translate complex financial data into clear, actionable insights for non-finance stakeholders
• Drive automation and process improvement across FP&A workflows
• Support board-level reporting and investor communications
• Be hands-on with Excel, NetSuite, and other financial systems—this is not a “review and delegate” role
• Major contributor to the company’s M&A and post-merger integration strategy and execution

What You Bring:

Must-Haves:

• 8–15 years of progressive FP&A experience
• MBA or CPA/CFA designation
• Advanced Excel and PowerPoint skills
• Hands-on experience with Salesforce.com and NetSuite
• Proven ability to lead cross-functional initiatives
• Strong business acumen and executive presence
• Willingness to dive deep and execute directly

Preferred:

• Prior experience in a global tech or SaaS environment
• Familiarity with FP&A tools (e.g., Datarails, Mosiac) and BI tools (e.g., Tableau, Power BI)
• Exposure to M&A modeling or capital planning
• Experience managing or mentoring junior Analysts
  
• Experience in remote-first or hybrid teams

Culture Fit:

• You’re not just a finance person—you’re a business partner
• You thrive in ambiguity and love building systems that scale
• You communicate with clarity and empathy across functions
• You’re energized by collaboration, not siloed analysis
• You bring rigor, curiosity, and a bias toward action
• You lead by example and aren’t afraid to get into the weeds
