FP&A Senior Manager

Clippings is an exciting and ambitious SaaS business that is building technology solutions to bring the interior design industry online. Today, most brands in this trillion-dollar industry don’t use technology to power their sales process. They offer an old-fashioned, time-consuming experience with paper/PDF catalogues, manual quoting and email-based ordering – which results in inefficient processes, unhappy customers and competitive weakness.

We are building a turnkey SaaS solution that enables brands to digitally transform their businesses, and empowers them to take orders from their diverse customer groups (businesses, designers, consumers, resellers), online.

Recently acquired by US-based unicorn Material Bank (the marketplace for searching, sampling and specifying architecture, design and construction materials), which has raised over $150m in funding from the world’s leading VC firms, we have ambitious plans and are searching for an experienced FP&A Senior Manager to be a key member of our Finance Team, reporting to the VP Finance, with significant exposure across the company.

This is a fast-paced, multi-faceted role that requires candidates to have strong communication and people skills as well as a willingness to roll-up your sleeves and take ownership of projects.

Responsibilities will include:
Participate in the monthly rolling forecast process and proactive analysis of how the company is trending toward the achievement of OKRs

Build detailed financial models and deliver insights that inform key decisions impacting growth, investment, and profitability (e.g., LTV, CAC, cohort retention, cash flow, unit economics)

Participate in the creation company-wide and executive-level presentations and communications
