FP&A Manager, Systems & Financial Planning

STARLIMS Corporation is a private equity-backed, high-growth technology company scaling its financial planning and reporting infrastructure to support the next phase of growth. 

We are hiring an FP&A Manager to own financial planning, reporting, and systems architecture for the business, with a particular focus on managing and scaling our Workday Adaptive Planning environment. This role sits at the intersection of financial analysis and systems ownership — ideal for a finance professional who has led an Adaptive implementation (or owns one today) and wants to bring that expertise to a metrics-driven, PE-backed business. You'll partner directly with the C-suite and cross-functional leaders on budgeting, forecasting, and board/investor reporting, while serving as the internal expert on our financial planning tech stack. 

Responsibilities: 

Systems Ownership & Architecture 

• Own and administer the Workday Adaptive Planning environment, including model structure, data integrations, and ongoing system maintenance. 
• Manage all data flows into and out of Adaptive, ensuring accuracy and integrity across connected systems (ERP, CRM, data warehouse). 
• Build and maintain automated, consolidated financial reporting files that refresh reliably for monthly SLT, Board, and investor review. 
• Continuously evaluate and scale the planning tool as the business grows — new modules, workflows, and integrations. 

• Manage expense budgeting and full P&L reporting across the business, partnering with executive leadership to forecast bookings, revenue, labor, and EBITDA performance. 
• Drive ACV and ARR-based forecasting and performance analysis — evaluating bookings, expansion, churn, and net revenue retention to inform growth strategy. 
• Deliver monthly, quarterly, and annual forecasts and variance analysis to senior leadership. 
• Support the annual operating planning process end-to-end. 

Business Partnership: 

• Serve as a trusted financial advisor to department and functional leaders, translating financial data into clear, actionable narratives. 
• Identify opportunities to automate manual processes and improve the speed and accuracy of financial analysis, including leveraging AI/automation tools where applicable. 
• Present financial results and insights directly to executive leadership. 

What Success Looks Like:  

In your first 0–6 months, success looks like: 

• We are leveraging a 3rd party to assist with the Workday Adaptive Planning environment with clean data flows from SFDC and Netsuite and documented processes. 
• Monthly, quarterly, and Board/investor reporting packages are produced on an automated, reliable cadence the CFO and executive team trust. 
• ACV/ARR, bookings, churn, and NRR forecasting is integrated into the planning model and actively used to inform growth strategy discussions. 
• Functional leaders across the business view you as a go-to financial partner, not just a reporting function. 

Requirements:  

Required 

• 4+ years of progressive FP&A experience, ideally within a SaaS, subscription, or PE-backed business. 
• Direct, hands-on experience implementing and/or administering Workday Adaptive Planning — this is a must-have, not a nice-to-have; candidates should be able to speak to model design, system data flows, and ongoing ownership, not just report consumption. 
• Demonstrated experience with ACV/ARR/SaaS metrics (bookings, churn, NRR, expansion revenue) and full P&L or expense-vertical ownership. 
• Track record of building scalable reporting infrastructure — e.g., consolidating multi-entity financials into automated, board-ready reporting packages. 
• Strong financial modeling and forecasting skills; comfort working directly with C-suite stakeholders. 
• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, or related field required. 
• Self-starter mindset with a bias toward automation, process improvement, and continuous learning. 

Preferred 

• Advanced certifications (e.g., HBS Finance & Accounting certificate) a plus. 
• Experience with additional financial systems (e.g., OfficeConnect, NetSuite, Salesforce) and BI/visualization tools (Power BI, Tableau). 
• Prior progression through a structured financial development or rotational program. 
• Experience navigating a fast-growth or PE-backed environment.
