The Principal, Financial Planning and Analysis partners with assigned business units and leads one or more planning or reporting processes across the company. This role transforms operating and financial information into clear outlooks, alternatives, and recommendations for management, working within a matrix model where business leaders own operating assumptions and decisions, while FP&A sets financial standards, challenges assumptions, and connects business views to enterprise outlook. The Principal reports to the FP&A leader.
Core responsibilities include:
• Business Partnership: Serve as the day-to-day finance partner for assigned business units. Understand operating drivers, commitments, headcount, capital needs, and risks; support leaders with timely analysis and clear recommendations.
• Process Leadership: Own assigned FP&A processes end-to-end across relevant business units. Set methodology and calendar, gather and challenge inputs, coordinate contributors, consolidate outputs, document decisions, and arrange backup coverage.
• Annual Planning: Lead assigned components of Board Budget and Budget Memo financial reviews. Challenge business assumptions early, reconcile approved commitments to planning baselines, and prepare management and Board-ready analysis.
• Forecast and Strategic Planning: Develop or contribute to quarterly financial outlook, longer-term plans, material operating drivers, and scenario analyses. Explain changes from approved plans and prior outlooks with quantified risks and opportunities.
• Performance Reporting: Deliver assigned monthly business-unit or departmental reviews including actual results, drivers, forecast implications, actions, and decision requests. Work with Accounting to reconcile reported actuals and with business leaders to validate explanations.
• Workforce and Capital: Integrate approved positions, open roles, and loaded costs into plans and forecasts with People Ops. Evaluate capital or investment choices and connect project timing and cash implications with Campus FP&A and Treasury.
• Data and Systems: Support consistent finance definitions, controlled model versions, source-data reconciliation, and effective use of Vena. State business needs and acceptance criteria for BI/IT/AI work; collaborate on integrations and technical changes with system owners. Use NetSuite as a financial data source.
• Cross-Functional Execution: Coordinate with independent Campus FP&A on shared planning deadlines, project definitions, and enterprise consolidation. Identify transactional close, billing, approval, or system administration tasks requiring functional handoff while preserving necessary FP&A analytical input.
The role is based in-office at the corporate headquarters in the Brickell area of Miami, Florida.
