FP&A Senior Manager

You'll lead ComplyAdvantage's core FP&A function: the planning model, the data behind it and the forecasting and reporting cycles the business runs on. This is the technical engine room of Finance. You'll be the team's go-to expert on financial modelling. The foundations are in place - your job is to take them to the next level, building and refining an AI-native FP&A stack that drives visibility, scalability and speed across the business.

You'll report to the VP, Financial Strategy and lead a high-calibre team of analysts (human and agentic). You'll work alongside our Finance Business Partner, who owns day-to-day relationships with budget owners, while you own the core infrastructure, models and systems behind the numbers. You'll also work closely with our Strategic Finance and Corporate Development team. This is a Senior Manager level role (M6), based in London.

• →Own the annual budget and quarterly reforecast end to end, raising the bar on speed, accuracy and version control
• →Own the monthly, quarterly and annual reporting cycles, including drafting Board performance packs 
• →Own the architecture of the core planning model: driver-based, fully integrated across P&L, balance sheet and cash flow, auditable and built to scale
• →Champion an AI-native FP&A stack: find where AI and agentic workflows can automate routine work, answer repeat questions and give budget owners self-serve access to their numbers
• →Take our Abacum planning platform to the next level: richer models, tighter integration with our central data warehouse, ERP, HRIS (HiBob) and CRM (Salesforce), and wider adoption across the business
• →Be the go-to technical resource across Finance for complex modelling problems
• →Own ARR and revenue modelling end to end, including cohort, retention and migration mechanics, the impact of product and pricing changes, and the bridge from ARR to recognised revenue
• →Translate technical finance concepts (revenue recognition, deferred revenue, working capital, capitalised development costs) into clear implications for decision-makers
• →Deepen rolling cash forecast proficiency so any cash variance can be bridged to a root cause
• →Deepen performance analysis from description to explanation: variance bridges and root-cause analysis that show why something moved and whether it is one-off or persistent
• →Run scenario and sensitivity analysis so the Exec team and Board can weigh more than one option, turned around in hours rather than days
• →Lead, coach and develop the team; review and take responsibility for its work
• →Set modelling standards for the team (structure, naming, checks, version control) and review all key models before they reach the Exec team or Board
• →Continuously improve FP&A processes, policies and controls, and make them centrally documented and accessible

• An FP&A and AI enthusiast: you're already using AI to change how finance works, and you want to build and refine an AI-native stack that drives visibility, scalability and speed
• 8+ years' experience in FP&A or Financial Strategy, including leading and developing high-performing teams
• Track record of owning budgeting, forecasting and management and Board reporting cycles end to end in a scaling business
• Deep technical modelling expertise: you've built integrated three-statement, driver-based models from a blank page, including cash flow forecasting, and you're the person others bring their hardest modelling problems to
• Hands-on experience running and implementing a planning tool (e.g. Abacum, Pigment, Adaptive, Anaplan) connected to source systems
• Systems and data literate: comfortable extracting and combining data from multiple systems and working closely with data teams
• Strong command of technical accounting and finance concepts (IFRS 15 revenue recognition, deferred revenue, working capital, cash conversion) and how the P&L, balance sheet and cash flow connect, and how they flow through a model
• Process-minded: you document, version control and build things that scale beyond you
• Excellent communication and presentation skills, able to explain the numbers clearly to Exec and Board audiences
• Expert in Excel / Sheets and PowerPoint / Slides
• Bachelor's degree or equivalent, with strong academic credentials

• Exposure to regtech, fintech or B2B data businesses

• First 3 months: you own the monthly reporting cycle and the planning model, have assessed the current stack, have agreed a roadmap for taking it to the next level, and have become the team's first port of call for technical modelling questions
• By 6 months: a quarterly full-year reforecast is running off actuals, and a 13-week cash forecast is live and refreshed weekly
• By 12 months: planning, reporting and approvals run on an AI-native stack with clean data; models are documented and version controlled; budget owners self-serve their numbers; and a new scenario takes hours, not days
