Trusted by Fortune 2000 companies, Arcadia combines unified data, AI-powered analytics, and expert advisory to help enterprise teams save money, mitigate risk, and cut carbon.

What We Deliver

  • Utility Bill Management: Automating the entire utility bill lifecycle — from data capture and validation to payment processing and auditing.
  • Energy Procurement Advisory: Bringing together comprehensive data, AI-powered analytics, market expertise, and a strong partner network to make sophisticated procurement options accessible to all.
  • Sustainability Reporting: Verified emissions data with seamless integration into leading sustainability platforms.

Tackling the world's most complex energy challenges requires diverse thinking. We're building teams of people from different backgrounds, industries, and disciplines — united by a belief that energy management should be simple, intelligent, and a genuine driver of business value.

About the Role

We are seeking a strategic and analytically rigorous Finance Business Partner to join the Strategic Finance / FP&A team as our dedicated commercial finance lead for our Sales & Marketing function. This individual will own revenue and sales forecasting, quota-setting, and commercial metrics for the combined Arcadia and ENGIE Impact go-to-market organization, serving as the connective tissue between Finance, Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success. This is a high-visibility, high-impact role for a finance professional who thrives at the intersection of data and strategy.

You will partner directly with the Chief Commercial Officer and GTM leadership to translate business performance into financial insight and financial targets into commercial plans. The ideal candidate combines rigorous quantitative skills and financial expertise with genuine curiosity about energy, climate, and the enterprise software businesses that are reshaping how companies manage their operations. Arcadia is open to fully remote candidates and employees have access to co-working spaces.

Responsibilities

  • Own the end-to-end revenue forecast model for the commercial organization, integrating pipeline data, bookings, churn, and expansion assumptions across all GTM segments.
  • Serve as the primary finance business partner to the CCO, VP of Sales, and GTM leadership, translating financial data into actionable insights that drive quota attainment, headcount decisions, and growth strategy.
  • Lead the annual quota-setting and territory planning process in close partnership with Sales Operations, ensuring alignment between top-down revenue targets and bottoms-up sales capacity modeling.
  • Build and maintain dashboards tracking key commercial metrics (ARR, NRR, ACV, win rates, CAC, LTV, payback period, pipeline coverage) and deliver regular reporting to the CFO and executive team.
  • Support QBRs, board materials, and investor-facing narratives with GTM financial performance analysis and forward-looking commentary.
  • Partner with Marketing to develop spend efficiency models, track CAC by channel and segment, and assess pipeline contribution from demand generation programs.
  • Drive financial integration work across the Arcadia and ENGIE Impact commercial teams, including harmonizing revenue definitions, CRM data standards, and go-to-market reporting.
  • Lead ad-hoc strategic analyses, including pricing and packaging scenarios, market expansion modeling, and M&A revenue diligence — as the company scales post-acquisition.
  • Continuously improve FP&A processes, tools, and automation in partnership with RevOps, Sales Ops, and the broader Finance team.

Requirements

Must-haves

  • 5+ years of progressive experience in FP&A, strategic finance, investment banking, or management consulting; at least 2 years supporting a commercial or GTM organization in a SaaS, tech-enabled services, or B2B software environment.
  • Expert-level financial modeling skills - you can build a bottoms-up sales capacity model, a cohort-based ARR bridge, and a scenario-driven revenue forecast from scratch.
  • Deep fluency in SaaS and recurring revenue metrics: ARR/MRR, NRR, GRR, ACV, TCV, CAC, LTV, payback period, magic number, and pipeline coverage ratios.
  • Demonstrated experience supporting quota-setting, territory carving, or incentive compensation design in partnership with Sales Operations.
  • Strong data skills - proficiency in Excel/Google Sheets at a minimum; experience with Salesforce and BI tools (e.g., Tableau, PowerBI) strongly preferred.
  • Outstanding communication and executive presence - you are equally comfortable presenting to a CFO, a CRO, or a field sales rep.
  • A genuine interest in leveraging AI and automation to push FP&A toward more scalable, tech-forward ways of working.
  • Ability to operate with high autonomy in a fast-moving, post-merger environment where structure is still being built.

Nice-to-haves

  • Prior experience modeling revenue for businesses with mixed revenue types, including subscription, usage-based, non-recurring, and treasury revenue.
  • Prior experience at an energy, sustainability, or climate technology company, or financial partnership experience with a business that sells into enterprise sustainability, procurement, or facilities management buyers.
  • Familiarity with utility bill management, energy procurement, or sustainability reporting as a product category.
  • Experience supporting a commercial integration or go-to-market harmonization following an M&A transaction.
  • Experience with financial planning tools (e.g. Abacum, Pigment, Adaptive Planning).
  • Experience identifying and implementing AI-driven automation opportunities within FP&A workflows.
  • SQL and/or Python experience.
  • MBA or CFA designation.

Benefits

  • "Remote first" culture - work anywhere in the US as long as you have a reliable internet connection
  • Flexible PTO - no accrued hours and no limit on the number of vacation days exempt employees can take each year
  • 11 annual holidays
  • 10 days sick leave
