Synergy Pet Group is one of the fastest-growing players in the pet industry, and they are seeking a Senior FP&A Analyst to join their team. The role involves a blend of financial planning and analysis as well as finance systems work, requiring hands-on experience in building financial models and integrating data systems.
Responsibilities
- Partner with the FP&A team and business unit leaders on the annual budget, reforecast cadence, and long-range plan, adding modeling depth and rigor to the process
- Build and own three-statement models, and go well beyond them into business and operational analytic modeling of unit economics, cohorts, pricing, and capacity, with what-if analysis on the operational levers that actually move the business
- Own scenario and sensitivity modeling as a core discipline, and build lender and investor scenario models, including covenant headroom, debt capacity, sources and uses, and returns and dilution
- Run monthly variance analysis and the business review: budget to actual, the drivers behind it, and a clear narrative for the CFO, sponsor, and board
- Provide decision support and ROI analysis on pricing, customer and product profitability, build-versus-buy, and hiring and capacity cases
- Support M&A activity, including diligence, acquisition modeling, and post-close integration, and support fundraising end to end, including investor materials and the data room through close
- Write your own reports and analyses off the data warehouse and other source data sets, using SQL or comparable reporting and analytics tools
- Partner with the CFO and Controller to evaluate and select a new ERP, then help lead its implementation and the migration off QuickBooks
- Administer and improve the systems the business runs on today across accounting, billing and revenue recognition, and CRM, and design better order-to-cash processes across them
- Partner with engineering as a peer to scope, prioritize, and drive the data warehouse build-out, systems integrations, and data pipelines
- Own data integrity across a fragmented systems landscape: reconcile source data from disparate platforms, enforce consistent definitions, and be the source of truth for what a number means
- Identify and lean into process improvement, replacing manual, error-prone workflows with automated, scalable ones
Skills
- 7 to 10 years in FP&A or strategic finance, including hands-on experience helping scale a company through a period of meaningful growth
- Direct experience working with private equity or venture capital partners and boards
- Direct fundraising experience is essential, including preparing investor materials, managing a data room, and supporting a capital raise through close
- Proven ability to build lender and investor models, including covenant, debt capacity, sources and uses, returns, and dilution analyses
- Strong report-writing ability off data warehouses and other data sets, using SQL or comparable analytics and reporting tools. SQL is a strong plus
- Experience evaluating, selecting, or implementing an ERP, ideally in partnership with accounting or a controller
- Hands-on familiarity with accounting, billing and revenue, CRM, and BI or data-warehouse tools (for example QuickBooks, Maxio, or HubSpot), and comfort partnering with engineering on integrations and warehouse build-out
- Deep business acumen: the ability to understand a business model fundamentally and connect financial results to the operational drivers underneath them
- Advanced financial modeling and a strong command of SaaS and subscription economics
- A demonstrated growth mindset and a bias toward process improvement. You see broken or manual processes as opportunities, not obstacles
- Familiarity with ASC 606 revenue recognition, 409A, and cap table concepts
- A genuine partner mindset, and comfort operating in a lean team with ambiguity, competing priorities, and direct executive exposure
