Responsibilities
Own the corporate finance cycle end to end, including the monthly reporting package, the driver-based forecast, annual planning, and scenario analysis, and redesign the parts that no longer hold up as we scale

Lead the annual planning process across departments, from calendar and templates through consolidation and board-ready output
Lead cross-functional alignment on metric definitions, reporting dimensions and financial data hygiene
Own the company-level KPI and metrics layer, decide what leadership measures as the business evolves, and carry a view on the trends driving each metric
Drive market and competitor research to support pricing and packaging, capital allocation, and improve financial forecasting
Communicate complex financial mechanics to people outside finance, and drive cross-functional decisions and leadership buy-in
Set how budget management runs across departments, including the cadence and what a department leader is accountable for, rather than tracking it on their behalf
Be a thought leader steering the finance function's AI operating standard and build the systems and agents to support it
Partner with Sales leadership on capacity model and KPI tracking
