About your team and your mission
At GitGuardian, the Finance department is a small (4 members) yet high-impact team, dedicated to ensuring reliability and facilitating decision-making for the leadership.

The team: Yohann (Finance Director), Thomas (Head of FP&A), Andrea (Accounting Manager).
Reporting to the Head of FP&A, you will be the go-to finance partner for all business teams. In this lean setup, your priority will be to build and execute, structuring our financial planning processes, delivering sharp analysis and ensuring leadership always has the visibility needed to make the right calls.

Forecasting Champion: you'll lead our budgeting, re-forecasting, and long-term planning efforts, including scenario and sensitivity analyses, providing the financial roadmap for our strategic decision-making.
KPIs Crusader: you'll be the guardian of our ARR tracking, ensuring the reliability of our north star metric and empowering the business with trusted, actionable financial data.
Performance & Strategic Reporting
Strategic Insider: you'll build and continuously enrich our performance dashboards, from headcount and cloud cost monitoring to broader business analytics while always pushing to add new dimensions and deliver deeper insights to our leadership team.
Investor Reporting: you'll prepare and structure the financial materials for shareholder updates, ensuring clarity and accuracy of the figures presented.
Process Transformation & Automation
Process & Automation: you'll design and build new FP&A processes from the ground up, leveraging AI and automation to eliminate manual workflows and drive efficiency and scalability.
Tooling & Insights: you'll actively contribute to benchmarking our FP&A toolstack and drive the migration towards an EPM solution that meets our needs such as real-time data, multi-dimensional analysis, and granular access tailored to the right stakeholders.
Cross-functional Collaboration
Collaboration Catalyser: you'll work closely with other teams to identify business growth opportunities and benchmark our performance against industry standards.
Strategic Project Support: you'll act as a trusted finance partner for department heads, bringing financial visibility, advising on their trajectory and steering towards the most relevant options for GitGuardian.
