The Job in a Nutshell
Foodics seeks a commercially minded, analytical, technology-forward finance leader to own FP&A and Investor Relations.
The VP will be a strategic partner to the CFO, CEO, Board, and leadership team, translating performance into decisions and building a scalable, AI-enabled FP&A function across SaaS, fintech, and payments.
Main Tasks & Responsibilities
- Own annual budgeting, long-range planning, rolling forecasts, and reforecast cycles with disciplined forecast accuracy.
- Lead monthly performance reviews across revenue, ARR, gross profit, margins, EBITDA, OPEX, cash flow, headcount, and key operating metrics.
- Translate results into concise executive insights on what changed, why, and what management should do next.
- Build driver-based financial models and base/upside/downside scenarios for strategic and operating decisions.
- Act as senior finance partner to Commercial, Product, Technology, Operations, and People teams.
- Strengthen OPEX, headcount, CAPEX, and strategic-investment governance.
- Evaluate pricing, new products, geographic expansion, partnerships, commercial initiatives, and M&A through business cases and post-investment reviews.
- Upgrade FP&A systems, reporting, and automation to reduce manual spreadsheet-heavy processes.
- Serve as key point of contact for investors, lenders, and other external financial stakeholders.
- Prepare Board decks, investor updates, reporting packages, and ad-hoc materials.
- Manage the capital-raise narrative and supporting materials with the CFO/CEO.
- Own the investor reporting calendar and track investor sentiment, market trends, and benchmarks.
AI-Enabled Analysis
- Use Claude to accelerate performance analysis, scenario modelling, business cases, and management commentary.
- Interrogate large financial and operating datasets to identify drivers, anomalies, trends, risks, and opportunities.
- Create repeatable AI workflows or agents for recurring FP&A tasks and ad-hoc executive analysis.
- Combine Claude with Excel/Google Sheets, BI tools, SQL, planning systems, or other finance technology.
- Define where AI should automate work, where human judgment remains essential, and how outputs should be validated.
What We Are Looking For
- 12-15+ years of relevant experience in FP&A, commercial finance, business finance, or strategic finance, with meaningful leadership responsibility.
- Professional qualification is mandatory: active CMA certification or CFA charter.
- Demonstrated strong understanding of SaaS and Fintech industries, including recurring-revenue economics, retention, churn, unit economics, payments economics, and margins.
- Demonstrated current and sophisticated use of Claude in day-to-day finance work; basic AI exposure is not sufficient.
- Direct partnership with senior executives and experience presenting to Executive Committee, Board, or investor audiences.
- Advanced Excel / Google Sheets; BI, SQL, planning tool, and finance automation experience are highly desirable.
What We Offer You
- Highly competitive compensation packages, including bonuses and the potential for shares.
- Personal development with regular training and an annual learning stipend.
- A talented team of over 30 nationalities working in 14 countries.
- Autonomy, mentoring, and challenging goals.
