About the Role:
The FP&A function at Andela is being built from the ground up, and this Manager role is one of its foundational hires. Reporting to the Senior Director of FP&A, you will be the operational core of the finance team, owning the day-to-day planning, storytelling, and insights generation.
This role is for you if you have a strong ownership mentality, growth mindset, and take pride in operational excellence. You enjoy running reliable planning cycles that inform decision making, maintaining models that earn business trust, hold a high bar for accuracy, and producing storytelling that surfaces the right insights at the right time. You will be a key partner to G&A functional leaders.
Exceptional Leadership:
As a member of the Finance team, you’ll serve as a role model for the rest of the company. Think about the feedback your peers typically give you – if it usually sounds like the below, we want to hear from you.
-
Low ego, low drama, servant leader: You share credit, take blame. You like being wrong because it means someone else had an even better idea.
-
One team mentality: You break silos across teams. You put the company and mission first above your team alone.
-
Great listener, hungry for feedback: You’re always seeking to improve – our product, our business, yourself. You solicit diverse opinions and deeply listen.
-
Owner, not renter: You see a problem, you fix it or find someone who will. The buck stops with you.
-
Player-coach: You fly high (create strategy) AND low (know the details that matter). You roll up your sleeves and get scrappy. You do this without micromanaging, empowering your team while actively engaging in important details.
-
Business problem solver. You’re not just a functional expert; you consistently get praise for approaching your function through the lens of solving business problems.
