[Hiring] FP&A Director @Breakmark

Role Description

We're looking for an experienced FP&A Director to serve as a player-coach for a junior finance team. Reporting to the VP of Finance, you'll own the FP&A function day-to-day — setting priorities, editing and elevating outputs, and stepping in as a direct contributor when needed. This is not a purely managerial role.

You are AI-native. That means AI is your default — how you build models, run analysis, and produce reporting. You bring that approach to the team and raise their ceiling as a result.

You'll also be the connective tissue between the FP&A team and the rest of the organization. This requires a polished communicator who builds trust quickly — with department heads, senior leadership, and the team itself.

This is a dedicated FP&A seat — budgeting, forecasting, reporting, and business partnering. The VP of Finance sets overall finance strategy and holds final sign-off on the budget and board materials. Strategic finance, corporate development, and investor relations are owned by a separate Manager, Strategic Finance; you'll work closely with them, but those workstreams sit outside this role.

What You'll Do

• Budgeting & Planning
  • Own the full annual budget process — from kickoff with department heads through to board approval.
  • Lead rolling forecast cycles (monthly and quarterly), ensuring every business unit is aligned and accountable.
  • Own and evolve the integrated financial model (P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, capex).
  • Develop scenario and sensitivity analyses — pricing, opex, network expansion capex — to support planning decisions.
• Reporting & Performance Management
  • Own end-to-end delivery of the monthly close package — actuals vs. budget vs. prior period with clear written commentary.
  • Prepare quarterly board reporting packages — accurate numbers with clear variance commentary; investor-facing narrative and messaging sit with the Manager, Strategic Finance.
  • Own the company's KPI framework — unit economics, subscriber metrics, network performance.
  • Coordinate with accounting and external auditors to ensure FP&A outputs align with statutory reporting.
• Business Partnering
  • Serve as the primary finance partner to Operations, Sales, and Network teams — translating strategy into financial plans.
  • Lead capex analysis and investment cases for network expansion and infrastructure decisions.
  • Drive margin and cost analysis across the business; surface and prioritize improvement opportunities.
  • Support ad hoc financial analysis for department heads — pricing changes, hiring plans, vendor decisions.
• Analysis & Insight
  • Translate budget and forecast variances into clear, actionable commentary for department heads and the VP of Finance.
  • Build recurring analytical views — unit economics, cohort and payback analysis, cost per subscriber — that support planning and forecasting.
  • Flag off-plan trends and financial risks early, with the data to back it up.
• AI-First Execution
  • Use AI as your primary tool for building models, running analysis, and producing reporting — not as a supplement.
  • Set the AI-first standard for the team: establish the tools, workflows, and prompting practices the function runs on.
  • Leverage AI to compress turnaround times on deliverables without sacrificing quality or accuracy.
  • Stay current on AI tooling relevant to finance — identify and adopt what makes the team faster and sharper.
• Player-Coach Leadership
  • Own the team's priorities — decide what gets done, in what order, and what gets deferred; protect bandwidth for the highest-value work.
  • Review, edit, and elevate outputs before they go out — polished, precise, and exec-ready, every time.
  • Step in as a direct contributor when the work requires it; this is not a purely managerial seat.
  • Develop the team's analytical thinking — move analysts from producing outputs to explaining what the numbers mean.
  • Mentor junior team members on financial reasoning, communication, and professional judgment.
  • Own the FP&A calendar; every deliverable ships on time at a standard you'd put your name on.

Qualifications

• MBA required, with at least 3 years of post-MBA experience in FP&A, including ownership of a budgeting or forecasting process.
• AI-native: you use AI by default to build, analyze, and report — and you can demonstrate it.
• Full bilingual proficiency in Spanish and English — written and spoken.
• Demonstrated ownership of a full annual budget cycle: kickoff, build, approval, and ongoing reforecast.
• Track record delivering board-level reporting — as owner, not support.
• Expert-level financial modeling: integrated three-statement models, scenario analysis, capex planning.
• Sharp analytical thinker — able to frame a problem, structure the analysis, and land on a clear, defensible answer.
• High editorial standards — knows the difference between analysis that is correct and analysis that is ready for an executive or a board, and closes that gap.
• Polished communicator — written and verbal; equally effective presenting to a CFO or coaching a junior analyst.
• Proven ability to earn trust quickly across functions and seniority levels.
• Willingness to travel 25–50%, primarily between Medellín and Bogotá, Colombia — with potential expansion into other LATAM markets as the company grows.

Preferred

• Background in telecoms, ISP, infrastructure, or subscription-based businesses.
• Time in management consulting (strategy, transaction advisory, or similar) is a strong plus.
• Experience with ERP systems (NetSuite, SAP, or similar).

Quick Facts

• Location: Medellín or Bogotá; open to other cities in LATAM & Miami, Orlando, Houston & NYC.
• Travel: 25–50%, primarily Medellín and Bogotá, Colombia.
• Type: Full-Time.
• Reports To: VP of Finance.
• Level: Director — Player-Coach.
• Language: Spanish and English required (bilingual).
