Vice President, Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A)

Location: Remote (USA, West Coast preferred) | Job Type: Full-Time | Team: Finance

About Azira

Azira is a location intelligence platform built for today’s data-driven teams, transforming mobile location signals into high-confidence, privacy-first insights. Our technology helps marketing, operations, and data leaders make smarter decisions, optimize performance, and drive measurable growth. From retailers and media agencies to destination marketers and real estate teams, we deliver trusted, validated insights rooted in real-world behavior—connecting the dots between where people go and how businesses can better reach, serve, and grow their audiences.

Why This Role Matters

Azira is seeking a strategic, hands-on VP of FP&A to own our planning engine and financial insight muscle. This is not a back-office reporting role — it’s a highly commercial seat at the table that shapes pricing strategy, product investment, and profitability levers while running the full FP&A rhythm of plan, forecast, and board reporting.

You’ll be the connective tissue between data and decision — turning insight into action that drives growth, margin expansion, and cash discipline. Roughly half your time will focus on commercial impact (unit economics, pricing, cost-to-serve, margin optimization); the other half on core financial planning and forecasting that powers the company’s strategic direction.

Your work will directly influence how Azira grows — smarter, faster, and more profitably. If that sounds like your world, let’s talk!

What You’ll Do

• Lead the annual planning and quarterly forecasting process across revenue, costs, headcount, and key metrics.
  
  
  
• Maintain a dynamic, driver-based financial model (P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow) with scenario and sensitivity analyses.
  
  
  
• Build and manage an executive KPI dashboard in partnership with RevOps and BI — tracking growth, margin, cash, and unit economics.
  
  
  
• Partner with Commercial teams on pipeline conversion, pricing guardrails, and deal economics to improve revenue quality and profitability.
  
  
  
• Collaborate with Product and Engineering to measure feature ROI and manage cloud cost-to-serve (AWS/GCP FinOps).
  
  
  
• Own the rolling 13-week cash forecast and drive working capital improvements through disciplined collections and cash visibility.
  
  
  
• Oversee commissions design and approvals with Sales Ops and Payroll to ensure accuracy and fairness.
  
  
  
• Monitor and optimize cloud spend in partnership with Engineering and Data; identify and execute cost-efficiency opportunities.
  
  
  
• Deliver clear, actionable variance analyses and financial insights to guide leadership decisions.
  
  
  
• Partner with the Controller to ensure a smooth monthly close, clean reconciliations, and timely reporting.
  
  
  
• Produce board-ready materials that tell the company’s financial story and highlight key levers for growth and margin expansion.
  
  
  
• Support the CFO on M&A initiatives including valuation, due diligence, and post-acquisition integration.
  
  
  
• Standardize and scale FP&A processes and implement the company’s planning platform to improve forecast accuracy and self-serve reporting.
  
  
  
• Implement scalable FP&A systems and tools that streamline forecasting and reporting while maintaining data integrity.
  
  
  
• Strengthen data quality and consistency across Finance, Accounting, and RevOps to ensure a single source of financial truth.
  
  
  
• Translate financial insights into clear risks, opportunities, and action plans for leadership.

What You’ll Bring

• Extensive FP&A experience: 15+ years of progressive finance leadership with full FP&A ownership, ideally in SaaS, adtech, martech, or digital media; experience in a PE-backed environment required.
  
  
  
• Financial modeling and board communication expertise: Proven builder of company models and board packs; expert in Excel/Sheets and experienced with planning tools such as Anaplan, Adaptive, or Planful.
  
  
  
• Commercial and operational impact: Track record of driving measurable results in pricing strategy, unit economics, margin improvement, and cash management; comfortable partnering with Commercial and Product/Engineering teams.
  
  
  
• M&A leadership: End-to-end experience in valuation, due diligence, and post-acquisition integration.
  
  
  
• Executive storytelling and influence: Outstanding written and verbal communication, able to translate complex financial data into clear, actionable insights; strong bias for clarity, speed, and accuracy.

Why You’ll Love It Here

• Competitive base salary: $175,000 - $210,000 USD, plus a bonus (commensurate with experience)
• Full medical, dental, vision, and PTO benefits
• Flexible remote work environment (U.S. based)
• Opportunity to lead and grow at a high-growth company
• Supportive, smart teammates who thrive on solving meaningful challenges
• A culture that values bold thinking, accountability, and fun
