Vice President, FP&A and Program Finance

Role Overview

As Vice President, FP&A and Program Finance at True Anomaly, you will own both functions end to end and report directly to the CFO. You will lead budgeting, forecasting, reporting, resource allocation, and the operating rhythm the executive team uses to run the business, delivering both the numbers and the narrative behind them.

What You Will Do

You will partner with the CFO and executive team as the owner of the company’s operational financial picture, bringing an independent view on budgets, resource allocation, and investment tradeoffs. You will also run the company’s monthly and quarterly business reviews with the leadership team, making sure performance issues lead to decisions and follow-through.

Why It Might Be a Fit

This role is for a proven finance executive who leads leaders, earns credibility with engineers, program managers, and government customers alike, and is as comfortable in a program review as in an executive meeting.
