Strategic Finance Manager

About the role

Fohr is hiring a Strategic Finance Manager. You will maintain and evolve our rolling forecast, drive visibility into our highest-priority operational initiatives,and be a genuine thought partner to leadership. This is a high-ownership role for someone who wants direct influence over how a company makes decisions, sets priorities, and measures what's working."

What you'll do

• Maintain the monthly rolling financial forecast end-to-end. This is a substantive monthly process that includes examining key assumptions and partnering cross functionally to incorporate inputs that impact top and bottom line expectations. 
• Serve as the finance partner for Fohr's highest-priority initiatives that drive our long-term plan. You will design the tracking frameworks, build the reporting, and give leadership clear, consistent visibility into progress.
• Support the annual strategic planning and budgeting process, including scenario modeling, target-setting, and cross-functional coordination.
• Deliver ad hoc financial analyses that help leadership make faster, better-informed decisions.
• Identify and execute process and systems improvements within your scope. We expect the person in this role to make the finance organization better over time.

What we're looking for

• 5–8 years of progressive finance experience, with at least 2–3 years in a strategic finance or FP&A role -  ideally within an agency or other professional services business.
• Exceptional financial modeling skills - you can build from scratch, pressure-test assumptions, and explain the logic clearly to a non-finance audience.
• Demonstrated ability to quickly master new financial planning tools; experience with modern FP&A software such as Lucanet xP&A (formerly Causal), Adaptive, Anaplan, Pigment, or similar software is a strong plus.
• A genuine project management instinct - you can build and own a process, hold stakeholders accountable, and keep things moving according to plan.
• Comfort operating in a fast-paced and dynamic environment where priorities can shift and ways of working can change toward the goal of continuous improvement.
• Strong communication skills; you can translate financial outputs into clear narratives for business leaders.

Why this role

This role carries real influence over how Fohr operates — not just through analysis, but through the frameworks, processes, and strategic conversations it drives. You will have direct exposure to leadership, meaningful influence over how the business is run, and real ownership over the systems and processes that support it.
