About The Position

LogicGate is seeking a Senior Strategic Finance Manager / Senior FP&A Manager to serve as the finance partner for the Go-to-Market (GTM) organization, which includes Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success. This role will be responsible for the analytical engine supporting the go-to-market strategy, focusing on forecasting, SaaS and bookings metrics, sales productivity, and efficiency analysis. The position requires a high level of ownership, with the individual running recurring analyses end-to-end and acting as a key finance decision partner to GTM leadership.

Requirements

6+ years in corporate FP&A or strategic finance, ideally supporting a GTM organization.
A bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field.
Deep understanding of SaaS business models and the metrics that drive them – subscription revenue metrics, sales productivity, marketing efficiency.
Advanced Excel and financial modeling skills.
Hands-on experience in Salesforce reporting and a corporate planning system (Anaplan, Pigment, Adaptive, or similar).
A track record of taking an ambiguous business question and returning a defensible, decision-ready answer with minimal direction — framing the question, sourcing the data, and recommending an action.
Comfort operating as a peer to operations functions, building shared definitions and jointly owned reporting rather than working in parallel.
The communication skills to translate complex analysis for non-financial leaders and influence executive decisions.
Genuine curiosity about AI tools and how they can speed up modeling, analysis, and reporting, with some hands-on experience putting them to use.

Nice To Haves

Masters in Business Administration (MBA).
Direct experience implementing a corporate planning system from the ground up.
Direct experience with NetSuite and Ramp.
Deeper hands-on fluency with AI assistants such as Claude, Gemini, or ChatGPT – using them to build models faster, automate recurring analysis, or streamline reporting.

Responsibilities

Serve as the primary finance point of contact for Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success leaders, partnering on budgets, headcount plans, forecasts, and resource allocation.
Partner with RevOps, Marketing Ops, and Accounting to align on definitions and data sources.
Bring the financial lens to incentive plan design, modeling the cost, coverage, and expected impact of proposed structures.
Partner with Sales and Customer Success leadership to manage the forward-looking bookings forecast.
Build and maintain driver-based forecasting models for revenue, pipeline conversion, staffing, and marketing spend, and run scenario analyses on hiring pace, pipeline coverage, and CAC.
Maintain headcount and compensation forecasts for the GTM organization, including hiring timing, ramp, attrition, and commissions, and flag risks against plan.
Contribute to annual budgets and long-term strategic plans, including segment-level growth targets and GTM investment cases.
Own recurring GTM reporting and serve as the finance voice in the monthly executive pack, covering bookings, ARR, marketing efficiency, and forecast risks.
Partner with GTM Ops to establish a single source of truth for pipeline coverage, capacity, and productivity.
Own the GTM month-end close, comparing actuals to plan, explaining variances, and recommending next steps.
Own the definitions and methodology behind core SaaS metrics such as CAC, LTV, LTV/CAC, ARR, NRR, and gross retention.
Partner with RevOps on sales capacity and productivity analytics, including quota coverage, ramp, attainment, and win rates by segment.
Evaluate marketing spend by channel and segment, measuring CAC payback and pipeline sourced per dollar spent, and recommending reallocation.
Partner with Customer Success to analyze churn, contraction, and expansion by segment and cohort, and quantify the revenue at stake in retention initiatives.
Support pricing, discounting, and non-standard deal analysis, including margin and payback implications.
Own GTM models, reporting definitions, and source-data reconciliations to ensure accuracy and repeatability of recurring analyses.
Automate and standardize recurring reporting to improve the speed and reliability of finance support to GTM.
