Director, FP&A Systems and Transformation

Strategic Transformation: Lead the strategic roadmap and digital transformation of the FP&A function across a complex tech organization encompassing Consumer, Enterprise, Content, Marketing, and Product divisions.

"The Translator" Role: Bridge technical automation and business strategy, ensuring system builds reflect unique segment drivers (e.g., Enterprise SaaS metrics, B2C unit economics, Content amortization schedules).

System Consolidation Strategy: Inherit a dual-system landscape (IBM Planning Analytics and Workday Adaptive Planning) to evaluate, test, and select the single go-forward enterprise architecture.

Team Leadership & Upskilling: Lead, mentor, and cross-train an internal team of two direct reports (Systems Administrator and Analytics Specialist), keeping morale high and expanding their skill sets during platform changes.

Culture of Automation: Drive a cultural shift away from manual spreadsheet assembly, empowering the broader FP&A team to focus on proactive, high-value strategic analysis.

Strategic Insights & ROI Optimization: Leverage automated reporting and financial data to surface actionable insights that drive long-term corporate strategy, optimize capital allocation, and maximize ROI across Content, Product, and Marketing investments.

Direct Team Management: Manage day-to-day workflows for two direct reports, balancing immediate reporting and analytics demands with major project milestones for the system transition.

Bespoke Business Partnership: Partner directly with decentralized FP&A teams across all business segments to audit their unique workflows and build tailored, automated financial modeling solutions.

Migration Execution & Vendor Management: Direct external implementation consultants and manage vendor relationships to execute the definitive "rip and replace" system migration on time, within budget, and with zero disruption to close cycles.

Workflow & Close Optimization: Automate data pipelines and standard reporting decks to drastically reduce monthly close and forecast cycle times.

Change Management & Governance: Establish strict system access controls, data hierarchy standards, and cross-functional user training programs to drive company-wide platform adoption.
