Senior Director of Business Finance
About the role
Own functional P&L management across all opex and serve as the trusted finance business partner to every functional lead across GTM, Engineering, Product, and G&A — because helping a generational creative entertainment company understand what it can afford to build starts with giving every team a clear, current picture of their numbers
Run the annual planning process end-to-end — headcount planning cycles, templates, calendars, and working sessions — in close coordination with Corporate Finance who sets the overall envelope
Drive the monthly and quarterly operating cadence, including QBRs, variance analysis, and the financial narratives that help leadership make fast, well-grounded decisions
Lead procurement strategy and vendor management, ensuring Suno spends with discipline as the company scales
Requirements
- 12+ years of progressive finance experience, with meaningful time in FP&A, business finance, or finance business partnering at a high-growth technology company
- Proven track record running company-wide planning processes — annual budgeting, headcount planning, and operating cadences at scale
- Strong P&L ownership experience across multiple functions, with the ability to build genuine trust with non-finance partners
- Exceptional financial modeling skills and comfort turning messy operational data into clean, decision-ready analysis
- Experience managing and developing finance talent, with a track record of building high-performing small teams
- A direct, low-ego communication style — equally effective in a QBR with a functional VP and a 1:1 with a new manager trying to understand their budget
