About The Role
Current is seeking a senior, highly strategic Senior FP&A Analyst to own the financial planning, forecasting, and performance management function for our expanding regions. You will serve as the primary financial thought partner to regional leadership, driving the analytical frameworks and forward-looking insights that shape how we allocate capital, evaluate firm performance, and accelerate growth. The ideal candidate brings deep FP&A experience in multi-entity or PE-backed environments, thrives in ambiguity, and can operate at both the strategic and executional levels with equal confidence.
Key Responsibilities
Strategic Financial Leadership
Drive the annual budget, multi-year long-range plan, and rolling quarterly forecasts, with full ownership from build to presentation.
Develop and stress-test scenario models to evaluate strategic alternatives, growth investments, M&A targets, and market expansion opportunities.
Serve as the senior financial advisor to Region leadership, shaping investment decisions, resource allocation, and operational strategy through rigorous analysis and confident recommendations.
Performance Management & Insights
Own the Region financial performance narrative — delivering monthly and quarterly reporting packages that go beyond variance commentary to surface the “so what” for leadership.
Define, track, and continuously refine the KPI framework across revenue, margins, utilization, realization, and client profitability.
Build early warning systems and leading indicators that give leadership a forward-looking view before issues become trends.
Business Partnering & M&A Support
Act as a trusted embedded partner to firm and regional leaders, translating operational realities into financial projections and bridging strategy and execution.
Lead financial diligence, integration modeling, and synergy tracking for Region acquisitions and onboarding activity.
Collaborate cross-functionally with Operations, Talent, and Strategy to ensure financial planning is grounded in operational reality.
Systems, Automation & Process Excellence
Architect and continuously improve FP&A infrastructure — forecasting cadence, reporting templates, data pipelines, and BI dashboards — to enable speed and scale.
Champion self-service analytics by building AI Automation and performance dashboards that give firm and regional leaders real-time visibility into financial performance.
Partner with Corporate FP&A and Finance Systems teams to drive consistency in planning tools, data definitions, and reporting standards across the platform.
Team Leadership & Culture
Model the behaviors of a high-performance finance team: intellectual curiosity, ownership mentality, and relentless focus on impact.
Represent the region in cross-functional planning forums and contribute to enterprise-wide FP&A capability building.
Qualifications
Education & Experience
Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field required; MBA or CPA strongly preferred.
5+ years of progressive FP&A or corporate finance experience, with at least 2 years in a senior or lead capacity.
Background in professional services, PE-backed platforms, or multi-entity / multi-location businesses strongly preferred.
Technical Skills
Expert-level financial modeling in Excel; ability to build dynamic, audit-ready models from scratch.
Hands-on experience with ERP and planning systems (NetSuite, Workday Adaptive, SAP, Anaplan, or equivalent) and BI tools (Power BI, Tableau).
Strong command of GAAP, financial statement drivers, and operational metrics relevant to services businesses.
People Skills
Executive-level communication skills, equally effective in a boardroom presentation and a one-on-one coaching conversation.
Proven ability to influence without authority and build credibility with senior stakeholders through insight quality, not positional authority.
Highly organized, with the discipline to manage competing priorities and deliver consistently in a fast-paced, high-growth environment.
