About The Position

Grant Thornton is building a world-class Finance & Accounting organization to support decisions, performance, and growth across a global business. The Associate Director, FP&A Treasury Lead drives cash, capital, and funding planning within FP&A, working closely with the Treasurer and coordinating FP&A and Treasury responsibilities so the firm’s budget and forecasts reflect liquidity and balance-sheet considerations.

The role partners with the Head of FP&A on consolidated budgeting and forecasts, connecting the P&L outlook with cash flow and balance-sheet projections. In collaboration with Treasury and FP&A, it provides funding, debt-capacity, and liquidity analysis for the long-range plan, capital allocation, growth investments, and acquisitions. This high-visibility, analytical position has direct exposure to the CFO, Head of FP&A, Treasurer, and New Mountain Capital. The balance of Treasury and FP&A work may shift with business needs, with an initial emphasis on Treasury during acquisition and financing activity and broader FP&A work as the platform scales.

The stated base salary range is $144,000–$216,000.
