Role
Who you are
- 5+ years of experience in FP&A, with at least 2 years partnering with GTM teams (Sales, Marketing, or Customer Success) in a B2B SaaS or high-growth tech environment
- A strong grasp of SaaS business models and GTM funnel economics, including ARR, CAC, NRR, CLTV, pipeline conversion, and sales efficiency
- Exceptional financial modelling and analytical skills—you’re comfortable with both building complex forecasts and zooming out to explain the story behind the numbers
- Experience with financial planning tools (e.g. Workday Adaptive Planning), CRM, and business intelligence systems (e.g. Tableau)
- An independent, self-driven mindset who is naturally curious, with a proactive approach to problem solving and execution
- A natural communicator - clear, confident, and comfortable challenging the status quo and working across departments, seniority levels, and cultures
- Experience working in distributed/global teams, comfortable operating solo in-region while deeply connected to global stakeholders
What the job involves
- We’re looking for a Senior FP&A Business Partner – GTM Finance to support our Go-to-Market (Sales, Marketing, Customer Success) functions across the Americas region
- You’ll be our first dedicated finance hire in the Americas, acting as the primary finance presence in the region
- While you'll work closely with our strong Revenue Operations team already in the region, you’ll also collaborate regularly with the broader FP&A and Finance leadership based in London (including the CFO), and be supported by a highly capable Finance Operations and Controlling team based in Chemnitz, Germany
- We are a dynamic Financial Planning and Analysis team that enjoy solving the business challenges that come with rapid scaling. As we grow, our FP&A team is at the centre of driving smart, scalable decisions that shape Staffbase’s future
- Our role is to inform and influence some of Staffbase’s most important business decisions by:
- Providing data driven insight and connection across functions, segmenting by time (quarter, year, multi-year), and among varying levels of data (Top down financial metrics to detailed operational plans)
- Linking that context directly to our business strategy and objectives
- Objectively assessing the impact of the decision on the business and identifying risks/opportunities
- Be the Go-to-Market Finance Business Partner for leadership across the America region, embedding yourself within regional Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success teams. This will involve developing comprehensive financial models to support investment and building long-term value creation, while also proactively identifying and analysing opportunities to improve operational efficiency and profitability within the region
- Operate as Staffbase’s only finance presence in the Americas, serving as a trusted advisor and financial sounding board to regional leadership and our Global CFO
- In addition to your Americas focus, you will own and maintain key global models and reporting for ARR, churn, and retention, ensuring accurate inputs and insights for monthly and quarterly performance reporting decks used by leadership and the Board
- Partner with Commercial Operations colleagues and finance/accounting stakeholders globally to drive commercial clarity and decision-making. Including ownership of the monthly commissions accruals, to ensure our frontline teams are rewarded accurately for their success
- Lead the planning, forecasting, and performance tracking processes for GTM functions in the America’s region — ensuring alignment between regional execution and company-wide strategy
- Collaborate with Commercial Operations to model sales capacity, quota deployment, compensation plans, and productivity metrics
- Present clear, actionable insights to GTM and finance leadership, contributing to QBRs, board packs, and leadership forums
Our take
Since launching in 2014, Staffbase has grown into a major name in the internal communications niche. Its platform is used by the likes of Samsung, ALDI, DHL, and Domino’s to create branded, mobile-first communication and information sharing tools which can access a company’s intranet from anywhere.
Staffbase has managed to set itself apart to some extent from the range of other internal communication apps like Slack and Teams by focusing on building a product tailored towards dedicated internal communication teams, rather than taking a more general approach.
This is proving to be a good decision as, with the shift to remote and hybrid working, the last few years have seen Staffbase gather serious momentum. A 2021 merger with Canadian competitor Banantang has been followed up by a series of major funding rounds and a rise to unicorn status. As well as this, it’s been expanding its own product portfolio through a number of strategic acquisitions as it looks to stay ahead of the competition.
