• Lead the FP&A function at Paddle and drive performance across revenue growth, cost discipline, and analysis to inform and guide capital allocation decisions.
• Report directly to the VP of Finance, serving as the connective tissue between finance and the broader leadership team.
• Join at an exciting moment as Paddle has intentionally paused to redesign how FP&A operates and is building for the next chapter of growth.
📋 Job Requirements
• Have significant FP&A leadership experience in a high-growth marketplace, SaaS, or technology business.
• Have a track record of building or transforming an FP&A function into one that is business-impact-driven rather than merely reporting-oriented.
• Be a confident business partner who can operate across all levels from C-suite to VPs and functional directors, translating financial insight into decisions that move the business.
• Be a systems-oriented thinker wired to optimise recurring work so more of the team's time is spent on project work that drives business impact.
• Have a history of effective use and progressive development of modern planning platforms, with Pigment preferred, and be able to own tooling as a product rather than just in a maintenance role.
• Bring commercial instincts alongside technical rigour, being as comfortable architecting complex revenue cohort models as synthesising their implications to guide investment decisions.
• Have led a full annual planning cycle end-to-end including budgeting, forecasting, consolidation, and board reporting.
🌟 Nice-to-have
• Have direct experience with Pigment as a planning platform.
• Have experience in a payments, fintech, or merchant-of-record business.

🎯 Responsibilities
• Build and develop the FP&A team, providing clear direction, regular coaching and development opportunities, and hiring to scale capacity in line with business needs.
• Partner with GTM, Product & Engineering, and functional leaders to build investment cases, surface unit economics insights, and embed finance as a performance partner in business decisions.
• Co-author board and CFO/CEO materials, translating complex financial data into clear narratives on revenue, cost, and capital allocation.
• Lead Paddle's end-to-end planning cycle from the annual budget, monthly forecasts, and long-range plans in Pigment.
• Own and advance the Pigment platform, acting as product lead to drive more effectiveness from streamlined 3-statement forecasting, revenue planning, and reporting structures.
• Drive the Monthly Business Review and QBR cadences, producing standardised packs, facilitating cross-functional discussions, and ensuring leadership leaves each session with clear prioritised actions.
