Qualifications
8+ years of finance experience, ideally with at least 3 years leading FP&A in a scaling company.
Experience in manufacturing, supply chain, or industrials is a big plus — but not required if you’ve got a builder’s mindset.
Master of financial modeling, and comfortable zooming out to the big picture.
Scrappy, resourceful, and not afraid to get your hands dirty; you’ll set strategy one hour and troubleshoot spreadsheets the next.
Strong communicator—able to simplify the complex and influence at every level.
Bachelor’s in Finance, Economics, or related field. MBA/CFA nice to have but not required.
