Anaplan Systems Analyst

Paylocity is looking for an Anaplan Systems Analyst to join our FP&A Finance Systems team. In this role you will design, build, and maintain Anaplan models that support our financial planning and reporting processes. You will report directly to the Senior Anaplan Architect and work closely with FP&A and Finance stakeholders to translate business requirements into scalable, well-structured model solutions.

This is a hands-on builder role — you will spend most of your time in the model, owning modules end to end from requirements through testing and deployment. The ideal candidate brings both technical Anaplan depth and enough FP&A fluency to work productively with Finance teams and understand the business context behind what they are building.

2-4+ years of hands-on Anaplan model building experience with Anaplan Model Builder certification (L1, L2)

Experience working directly with FP&A teams or a background in FP&A — you understand how Finance teams plan, forecast, and report

Bachelor degree required

Proficiency in Anaplan formula writing including LOOKUP, OFFSET, RANKBY, conditional logic, and time-based calculations

Strong understanding of Anaplan model architecture — lists, modules, time dimensions, versions, and hierarchy structures

Familiarity with NetSuite or similar ERP systems, particularly as a data source for Anaplan models

Ability to read and extend existing model logic without breaking downstream dependencies

Strong communicator — comfortable working directly with Finance and non-technical stakeholders

Detail-oriented with a structured approach to testing and validation

Experience with ASC 606 or similar revenue/cost capitalization and amortization models

Hands-on FP&A experience — financial modeling, variance analysis, or close processes

Experience building or maintaining integrations with Anaplan

Experience at a SaaS or subscription company

You will report to the Senior Anaplan Architect and work closely with FP&A, Accounting, and Finance Operations teams. You will also collaborate with IT and data teams on system integrations and data governance.
