Position: FP&A Manager

Location: New York, New York

Employment Type: Full-time

Compensation: $140,000–$155,000 + Bonus + PS

Position Overview

We’re partnering with an established consumer-focused organization in NYC that is looking to add an FP&A Manager to its finance team.

This is a strong opportunity for someone who has built their career within FP&A and is ready for a role with real visibility across the business . The FP&A Manager will lead financial planning and analysis across a multi-channel retail operation spanning e-commerce, wholesale, and brick-and-mortar , partnering closely with finance leadership as well as commercial and operational teams.

The role goes well beyond maintaining a budget. You’ll own and improve forecasting, analyze sales and margin performance, build financial models that connect operating activity to P&L results, and help leadership understand not only what is happening in the business, but why it is happening and what to do about it .

Just as importantly, this is an organization that invests in and rewards its people . It is a fast-moving environment with high expectations, but not the type of company where strong performers simply get asked to do more without recognition. Performance and compensation are reviewed semiannually , bonuses are paid twice per year , and this role is also eligible for semiannual profit sharing .

The ideal candidate is proactive, commercially minded, and comfortable translating complex financial data into clear recommendations for senior leadership.

Must be legally authorized to work in the United States.
