A quick snapshot…
As FP&A Manager at Conga you’ll support the maintenance of our corporate financial model inputs, monthly financial close processes, reporting, and analytics needs, and then some. You’ll develop relationships across the Product (R&D) organizations to enhance and improve the accuracy and understanding of budgets, forecasts, and analyses. You’ll help to expand the support the Product organization through pricing analysis and product roadmap prioritization.

Why it’s a big deal…  
At Conga, our Finance team is essential to our success. You’ll be part of the critical support for our operational management team, executive leadership team, and board of directors.

Are you the person we’re looking for?  
Related experience. You have 5 or more years in FP&A, corporate strategy, or related fields. You have specific history in supporting and working with executive leadership of a R&D at a SaaS company. You’ve played a role in creating robust financial analyses, models, reports, and dashboards that facilitate business decisions – especially using Excel. You have a vast understanding of accounting, finance, and operations principles and can help others understand and apply those concepts.

Influence change. You take initiative to understand the business’s needs and challenges, maybe more than they understand it themselves. You form quality, robust recommendations through the knowledge you acquire, data sources, and existing processes – and you use those recommendations to create scalable solutions that will help immediately and in the future. Because of the transparency, authenticity, humility, and knowledge you bring, your peers, partners, and business leaders trust the information you provide to influence key decisions.

Initiative. You don’t wait around for things to happen or for your manager to tell you what to do. You’re not only proactive about completing your own work, but when you sense the need to introduce a project that will benefit the team or the organization -- even if it’s outside your scope of work -- you put a proposal together, talk to the team about it, and own it. And that also goes back to having an entrepreneurial spirt.  

Industry expertise. Let’s face it, understanding and prior experience supporting a Product (R&D) organizations at a software (SaaS) company is a must.

 Education. Successful completion of a bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or Business Administration is highly preferred.

Here’s what will give you an edge…

Tools and systems experience.
