In this high-visibility role, you will go beyond traditional reporting to act as a strategic partner to our GTM, R&D, and Operations leaders.

Implement quality controls to ensure the accurate flow of booking and revenue data into financial reporting. - Process Engineering: Develop standardized operating procedures (SOPs) for financial analysis to move the department from ad-hoc reporting to scalable, automated frameworks. Qualifications - 5+ years of progressive experience in FP&A, Strategic Finance, or Sales Operations and equivalent strong analytics experience for business strategies. - Prior experience in Enterprise SaaS company and prior private equity or investment banking experience preferred. Requirements - Advanced proficiency in Excel (complex modeling) is required. - Strong familiarity with Salesforce (reporting, dashboards, object relationships) is essential. - Experience with BI tools (e.g. Tableau, Power BI, Looker, Python) and Planning tools (e.g. Anaplan, Adaptive Insights) is a major plus. - Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Math, Accounting, Economics, or a related quantitative field. MBA or master degree is a plus. - Proven ability to translate complex financial data into clear, actionable narratives for non-financial stakeholders (Sales, Engineering, Product). - Strong communication skills and excellent writing skills. - Strong team collaborator, self-driven and motivated. Benefits - Base Salary Range: CAN 80K to 120K per year - Equity
