    Description

    Limelight works with finance teams that are outgrowing spreadsheets and need a modern way to plan, forecast, and report. Our customers don't need "implementation support" — they need a finance partner who understands FP&A deeply and can guide them through real-world planning challenges.

    This is a senior, client-facing consulting role. You will work directly with CFOs, VPs of Finance, and FP&A leaders to design, build, and operationalize budgeting, forecasting, workforce planning, and reporting workflows inside Limelight.

    If you've lived in FP&A, led planning cycles, built models from scratch, and can confidently run a room with finance leaders — this role is for you.

    What You'll Do


    Client Leadership & Advisory

    • Act as the primary finance advisor for a portfolio of customers during onboarding and beyond.
    • Lead working sessions with CFOs, VPs of Finance, Controllers, and FP&A teams.
    • Translate messy, Excel-heavy planning processes into clean, scalable FP&A workflows.
    • Ask the right finance questions — not just follow a checklist.

    FP&A Solution Design

    • Design and implement:
      • Annual budgets and rolling forecasts
      • Driver-based revenue models
      • Workforce and headcount planning
      • Actual vs budget / variance analysis
      • Board- and exec-ready reporting
    • Guide customers on best practices, tradeoffs, and design decisions.
    • Ensure solutions are not just built — but adopted.

    Communication & Stakeholder Management

    • Clearly explain complex financial concepts to both finance and non-finance stakeholders.
    • Manage expectations, timelines, and priorities with senior clients.
    • Confidently present recommendations and push back when needed.
    • Build trust — customers should feel "this person gets our business."

    Collaboration

    • Partner closely with Sales, Product, and Customer Success.
    • Provide feedback to product based on real customer FP&A use cases.
    • Help shape implementation standards and playbooks as Limelight scales.

    Who We're Looking For


    Required Experience

    • 7+ years of experience in FP&A, finance, or finance consulting.
    • Prior client-facing experience (consulting, advisory, or external-facing finance role).
    • Comfort working directly with CFOs and senior finance leaders.
    • Advanced Excel/financial modeling background (you've built real models, not just reviewed them).
    • Experience implementing or working with FP&A tools or ERPs.
    • Comfortable leading projects without detailed instructions.

    Education & Credentials

    • Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field (required).
    • Nice to have certifications CPA or CFA.
