Role
Who you are
- 8–10+ years of progressive FP&A experience, with operating time at both high-growth, VC-backed companies and public companies; IPO experience is a strong plus
- Demonstrated track record as an FP&A leader who knows what great looks like — and has built it before, not just observed it
- Deep expertise in corporate financial modeling, three-statement forecasting, annual planning, and monthly FP&A operations at scale
- Mastery of Excel and Google Sheets, paired with strong fluency in modern FP&A platforms (Pigment, Mosaic, Anaplan, Adaptive, or similar) and a clear point of view on the right tools for a company at our stage
- Genuine excitement and commitment to using AI — Claude and other tools — as a core part of how the FP&A function operates and scales; you've already integrated AI into your own workflow
- Exceptional project and process management skills; you bring order to ambiguity and drive cross-functional work to completion without dropped balls
- Executive presence and communication skills — comfortable presenting to the board, partnering with the C-suite, and translating complex analysis into clear recommendations
- Player-coach mentality: willing and able to build the model yourself, and equally able to lead, develop, and elevate the people around you
What the job involves
- Flex is scaling rapidly, and the way we run finance has to scale with us
- We're hiring a Director of Corporate FP&A to own the company-wide FP&A function and serve as a strategic partner to the SVP of Finance and the broader leadership team
- This is a high-leverage role with executive visibility: you'll own the corporate financial model and forecast, lead annual planning, own monthly FP&A processes, and partner on board materials
- Success in this role means bringing a clear point of view on what great FP&A looks like at a high-growth, large scale company — and then building it here
- You'll set the standard for forecasting rigor, planning discipline, and business partnership, while also being the person who rolls up their sleeves to own the model, pressure-test the numbers, and ask the questions no one else is asking
- You're a player-coach: equally comfortable in the weeds of a financial model and in front of the executive team explaining what it means
- This role is designed to flex up to Senior Director for a candidate who brings exceptional operating range and the ability to drive function-wide transformation — including how we use AI and modern FP&A tools to scale the team's impact
- If you're excited about building a finance org for the next stage of Flex's journey — and you believe AI is a force multiplier, not a buzzword — we want to talk
- Preference for NYC in-office, but flexible for exceptional candidates
- Own Flex's corporate financial model and consolidated forecast end-to-end, ensuring accuracy, integrity, and a clear narrative behind every number
- Lead the annual planning process from top-down targets through bottoms-up department plans, partnering closely with department leaders, Strategic Finance and S&O to land an aligned, executable plan
- Own the monthly FP&A cadence — close-to-forecast cycles, variance analysis, business reviews, and reporting packages that drive sharper decisions across the company
- Partner with the SVP of Finance and Strategic Finance team on board materials, investor updates, and select reporting deliverables; translate complex financial dynamics into clear, executive-ready narratives
- Evaluate, select, and operationalize the right FP&A tooling for a company at our stage — building an AI-enabled tech stack that enables Finance to push the envelope on iteration and velocity
- Embed Claude and other AI tools into the daily FP&A workflow — forecasting, variance commentary, scenario modeling, board prep — and set the standard for how the function uses them responsibly
- Coach and develop FP&A talent, raising the analytical bar and modeling the player-coach mindset of doing the hard work alongside the team
- Act as a thought partner to executives across Flex — bringing proactive insight, sharp questions, and a strong opinion on how financial discipline accelerates the business
Our take
Many people struggle to pay their rent every month, with a variety of bills hitting their bank accounts simultaneously. Whilst many of these people earn enough money to cover their bills, the inflexible nature of monthly bills can make the all-in-one payment a harder obstacle.
Flex provides a mobile application for the flexible payment of rent, allowing users to pay their landlords through flexible payment plans, reschedule payments when necessary, and protect their funds through Overdraft Protection. The company achieves this by partnering with estate agents and paying their resident's bills upfront, taking on the challenges that landlords would normally have due to late payments.
Flex has experienced extremely rapid growth since its founding which has caused some issues, as it struggled to keep up with the surge in new customers. Having made improvements to its product and scaled its customer service team, it is set to continue providing a service that has come to be highly valued by both tenants and landlords.
