    Financial Planning - New York, United States - Canonical

    Default job background
    Description
    Canonical is a leading provider of open source software and operating systems to the global enterprise and technology markets.

    Our platform, Ubuntu, is very widely used in breakthrough enterprise initiatives such as public cloud, data science, AI, engineering innovation and IoT.

    Our customers include the world's leading public cloud and silicon providers, and industry leaders in many sectors.

    The company is a pioneer of global distributed collaboration, with 1000+ colleagues in 70+ countries and very few office based roles.

    Teams meet two to four times yearly in person, in interesting locations around the world, to align on strategy and execution.

    The company is founder led, profitable and growing.
    We are hiring a

    Financial Planning & Analysis Lead

    to play a key part leading our monthly business reviews, quarterly forecasting, annual planning, and drive cross-functional business alignment.

    Our ideal candidate is a highly analytical independent thinker and mentor, who has a proven record of leadership and the intrinsic motivation to use data to advise on critical financial, commercial and strategic decisions.

    As a global software company delivering the entire open source portfolio, our business is much more complex than an equivalently sized regional or national company in other industries.

    That complexity is warranted because of the scale of the opportunity we have to become a significant part of the Global 2000 software supply chain for infrastructure and applications.

    We also choose to work in a truly distributed, truly global fashion, which requires us to work in many currencies and again requires additional sophistication in our financial planning, modelling and analysis.

    We are investing in FP&A to give ourselves a competitive advantage and insights that will shape strategy and operations in multiple teams.


    Location:


    Our finance team is based in EMEA and Americas time zones, this position is home based anywhere between UTC/GMT+2 and GMT-6.

    Develop dashboards and reports including Board materials, monthly financial results and other management presentations
    Analyse & report monthly results, leading indicators and KPIs to support monthly forecasting and annual plan attainment
    Provide commercial analysis, develop growth targets, and evaluate strategic initiatives
    Work with product managers to produce, aggregate, and distribute market insights and competitive intelligence
    Manage financial models, including budget, forecast and long range plans

    Support month end close, flux review processes, and financial reports

    Support the IPO process, including the production of investor materials and public filings
    Develop and mentor colleagues within the FP&A team, as well as peer teams
    Review department spend, procurement strategies, and business wide process efficiency
    What we are looking for in you

    Exceptional academic track record from both high school and university
    Undergraduate degree in a technical subject or a compelling narrative about your alternative chosen path
    Confidence to respectfully speak up, exchange feedback, and share ideas without hesitation
    Track record of going above-and-beyond expectations to achieve outstanding results
    Experience and a deeply rooted passion to mentor team members, and aid in peer career growth
    Have operated in a high growth, multi currency/geography technology business with a mixed go-to-market motion
    Strong problem-solving and analytical abilities
    Highest ethical standards, integrity, authenticity, credibility, and character
