About The Position

HireVue is seeking an Operational FP&A Analyst to partner with operating departments on budgets, expense forecasts, and commercial SaaS performance. The analyst will work closely with the Director of FP&A and CFO, owning expense-side P&L analysis and serving as a finance partner to business leaders. This is an operational corporate finance role requiring foundational accounting literacy and advanced Excel financial modeling; it is not a BI, data analytics, or SQL engineering role. The role covers monthly close and operating expense management, workforce and headcount modeling, SaaS unit economics, executive reporting, and financial systems and process improvement. The analyst will use Workday Adaptive Planning and Excel to maintain and improve forecasts and models, and will perform ad hoc financial and scenario analysis for leadership. This is a work-from-home position. The employee must have a home environment free from distractions and suitable for virtual video meetings. HireVue uses a BYOD policy and Google User Enrollment to manage work-related aspects of personal devices while keeping personal apps and data separate. HireVue is an equal opportunity employer and is not currently hiring in Alaska, Iowa, Maine, Mississippi, New Mexico, or West Virginia.
