Position Overview
The FP&A Manager will take over and enhance current models and function. This is a strategic analytical role for someone with deep financial modeling expertise, genuine market intelligence capability, and the intellectual horsepower to operate as a true thought partner to senior leadership.
Key Responsibilities
Financial Planning, Modeling & Forecasting
- Own and operate a full 3-statement financial model (P&L, balance sheet, cash flow) — and keep it current, accurate, and decision-ready at all times
- Build and maintain integrated operating models for scenario analysis, sensitivity testing, and strategic investment evaluation across all business lines
- Lead the annual budgeting cycle and develop rolling forecasts on a regular cadence — partnering with department heads to anchor financial plans to operational reality
- Perform rigorous variance analysis (budget vs. actual vs. forecast) and translate findings into clear, actionable narratives for senior leadership — not just tables of numbers
- Model business performance for a privately-held company structure: understand the nuances of private company financials, equity considerations, and owner-level reporting requirements
Strategic Analysis & Market Intelligence
- Conduct proactive market analysis — going out into the industry, competitive landscape, and adjacent markets to bring back intelligence that informs strategic decisions
- Identify and evaluate new product, service, or market opportunities: build the financial case for what the company should pursue, what it should exit, and what it should avoid
- Define, build, and own the company's KPI framework — identifying the right metrics for each function, designing how they are tracked, and ensuring leadership has a live, reliable view of business health
- Support M&A diligence, integration modeling, and capital allocation analysis as MedPro continues to scale through acquisition and organic growth
- Translate strategic initiatives (Rocks, OKRs, growth priorities) into financial frameworks with defined metrics, success thresholds, and ownership accountability
Executive Reporting & Business Partnership
- Build and deliver the weekly and monthly reporting package for senior leadership — analytically rich, narrative-driven, and designed to drive decisions, not just inform them
- Prepare materials for board-level meetings, quarterly operating reviews, and strategic planning sessions — including financial narrative, scenario analysis, and executive presentation content
- Serve as a genuine financial thought partner to the VP of Finance and functional leaders — challenging assumptions, pressure-testing plans, and adding analytical rigor to every major decision
- Conduct ad hoc financial analysis and business case development with speed and precision — the kind of work that makes leadership say "this is exactly what I needed"
Systems, Technology & AI-Augmented Workflows
- Leverage AI tools (LLMs, Copilot, advanced analytics platforms) as a core part of the analytical workflow — not as an experiment, but as a productivity multiplier embedded in how you work
- Evaluate, implement, and govern FP&A tools and systems that scale with the business — from BI platforms to planning software (Adaptive Insights, Planful, Anaplan, or equivalent)
- Automate recurring reporting, reconciliation, and data assembly processes to eliminate manual effort and redirect analytical capacity toward higher-value work
- Ensure financial data integrity across all systems — building the data infrastructure that makes reporting trustworthy and fast
- Establish best practices, documentation, and SOPs for the FP&A function — building institutional knowledge that survives individual transitions
Qualifications
Required
- 8–15 years of progressive experience in FP&A, corporate finance, investment banking, management consulting, or strategic finance — with demonstrated ownership of financial models and business outcomes
- Bachelor's degree required — preference for Finance, Economics, Accounting, or a quantitative discipline from a strong academic institution. Top-tier business school (undergraduate or MBA) is a meaningful differentiator for this role
- Direct experience modeling for and operating within privately-held companies — understanding the distinct reporting, governance, and decision-making context of private business ownership
- Demonstrated ability to build and own a KPI framework: identify the right metrics, design the tracking infrastructure, and drive accountability through data
- Proven market intelligence and strategic analysis capability: has gone out into the market, synthesized competitive, industry, or customer data, and returned with recommendations that shaped leadership decisions
- Advanced Excel proficiency: complex models, dynamic arrays, scenario engines, and full model auditability
- Proficiency in Power BI, Tableau, or equivalent BI platforms — able to build management dashboards, not just consume them
- Technology-forward mindset: active, hands-on use of AI tools (ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, or similar) as part of daily analytical and workflow practice — not aspirational, but operational
- Strong executive communication skills: able to synthesize complex financial analysis into clear, compelling business narratives for senior and C-suite audiences
PREFERRED
- MBA from a top-tier business school (M7, T15, or equivalent international program) — candidates with this pedigree are prioritized for consideration
- CFA charter or CPA designation as evidence of rigorous financial discipline
- Experience in a management consulting firm, investment bank, or private equity environment — the analytical standards and communication expectations of those environments are directly transferable
- Prior experience as the first or sole FP&A hire in a growth-stage or scaling company — you have built the function, not just staffed a role within one
- Familiarity with ERP and planning platforms: NetSuite, Adaptive Insights, Planful, Anaplan, or Salesforce-integrated financial reporting environments
- Background in healthcare services, waste management, logistics, or compliance-driven service industries
- Expert-level financial modeling skills: 3-statement modeling (P&L, balance sheet, cash flow), DCF, LBO awareness, scenario and sensitivity analysis — built from scratch, not just maintained
- Base salary of approximately $140,000, commensurate with experience
- Medical, dental, and vision coverage
- High-ownership, high-visibility role — direct access to VP of Finance & Operations and executive leadership
- Build the FP&A function from scratch; clear trajectory to Senior Manager or VP as the organization scales
- Low bureaucracy, fast-paced, results-driven — your work is seen, felt, and acted on immediately
Compensation & Benefits
Company Overview
The Compliance Services Organization didn't exist. We built it.
MP1 Solutions pioneered the Compliance Services Organization (CSO) — a new category of operating partner built to replace the fragmented vendor model that has defined compliance programs for decades. Built on the foundation of MedPro Disposal, the nation's largest privately-held medical waste company serving 35,000+ providers across 48 states over the past 15 years, MP1 Solutions extends that operational infrastructure, vendor network, and customer trust into a category we're actively building — and leading. We're doing it with a technology-forward approach, actively developing the AI infrastructure that will make this model smarter, faster, and more scalable as we grow.
