Accounting and Finance - Head of FP&A

Director Of Fp&A
At ClarityPay, we're redefining the point-of-sale credit market to bring more value to merchants. Based in NYC and Atlanta, our fast-growing fintech empowers large merchants with configurable "Pay-Over-Time" tools—including monthly installments, BNPL, and revolving products. We solve complex credit challenges with speed, precision, and intelligence—combining deep expertise with advanced tech to deliver better outcomes, every time.
Our clients rely on us to help them serve their customers, grow, and build loyalty. Our values guide everything we do: we put merchants first, stay data-driven, always know the why, learn relentlessly, and win together as a team. This clarity of purpose fuels our commitment to delivering exceptional customer experiences at speed and scale.
We are a fast-growing asset-based finance platform built on modern fintech infrastructure. Having recently closed our Series A, we are scaling our operations, expanding our product suite, and deepening relationships with institutional capital partners. This is a rare opportunity to join a high-growth company at an inflection point and help shape the financial foundation of the business.
As the Director of FP&A, you will lead the planning, forecasting, and analytical efforts that drive financial and strategic decision-making across the organization. You'll work closely with the executive team and department heads to deliver insights, build scalable processes, and ensure alignment between financial outcomes and business objectives. This is a hands-on, high-impact role that requires deep expertise in loan portfolio economics and warehouse facility modeling—you will be the architect of how we understand and optimize returns across the capital stack.
This role is not a traditional FP&A position. We are looking for someone who thinks like a credit investor or structured finance analyst, and can build from scratch.

Establish best-in-class financial processes, tools, and controls
Bachelor's degree in Finance, Economics, Accounting, or a related field; MBA or CFA a plus

• 8–12 years of experience in structured finance, specialty finance, credit investing, or asset-based lending—candidates from traditional corporate FP&A or SaaS finance backgrounds are unlikely to be a fit
• Hands-on experience building lever-based IRR models for loan portfolios, including gross yield, cost of funds, loss assumptions, servicing costs, and net spread—this is a core day-one requirement
• Deep familiarity with warehouse facility economics: advance rates, utilization, spread, eligibility criteria, and how facility usage impacts portfolio-level returns
• Ability to model waterfall structures, portfolio seasoning, and prepayment/default sensitivities
• Strong Excel and financial modeling skills; experience with BI tools
• Familiarity with key credit and fintech metrics: net yield, loss-adjusted return, LTV/CAC, take rate, payment volumes, and cohort-level performance
• Experience supporting capital raises, debt financing (warehouse facilities, securitizations, or fund structures)—direct experience negotiating or modeling facility terms is a strong plus
• Strong communicator—able to translate complex structured finance concepts into board- and investor-ready narratives
