I reconcile actuals with Accounting monthly, investigate material variances with budget owners, refresh forward assumptions, and document risks and decisions so leadership can understand changes quickly. Describe how you would explain a material unfavorable variance to an executive audience. I would lead with the size and business impact of the variance, then isolate the primary drivers such as hiring timing, vendor spend, cloud usage, or accounting timing. I would distinguish recurring from one-time effects, quantify the expected full-year impact, and recommend a clear action or decision. Which SaaS metrics do you consider most important when connecting operations to financial outcomes? I focus on ARR growth, NRR, gross margin, CAC, CLTV, retention trends, and cloud or support costs where relevant. The appropriate mix depends on the function, but the goal is always to connect operating drivers to revenue, margin, cash needs, and forecast risk. How have you partnered effectively with department leaders who are not finance specialists? I tailor the level of detail to the audience and make the financial implications of decisions practical and actionable. Rather than simply enforcing budget controls, I use data to help leaders prioritize investments, understand tradeoffs, and make informed decisions early. How would you use AI in an FP&A workflow while maintaining financial accuracy? I would use AI to accelerate repetitive work such as drafting variance commentary, summarizing inputs, identifying anomalies, and creating first-pass analyses. I would retain ownership of source validation, model logic, reconciliations, and final stakeholder communications, ensuring that outputs are auditable and aligned with approved financial data.

At ClickUp, we’re building the future of work: the first truly converged AI workspace unifying tasks, docs, chat, calendar, and enterprise search, all supercharged by context-driven AI. We are an AI-native company. Every team member is expected to leverage AI daily, and we evaluate AI fluency as part of our hiring process. Join us and help redefine what’s possible. 🚀 About the Role ClickUp is looking for an FP&A Manager to serve as the financial business partner across three functions: R&D, G&A, and Corporate. You’ll own the full cycle of forecasting, month-end close, and budget vs. actuals reporting for each, partnering directly with department leaders and the accounting team. This is a high-autonomy role on a lean Strategic Finance team where you’ll have real ownership from day one. What You’ll Do * R&D: Own expense management, vendor and invoice approvals, headcount planning, non-headcount forecasting, cloud infrastructure cost tracking, and month-end variance analysis and leadership reporting. * G&A: Drive expense forecasting, headcount planning, vendor approvals, and month-end close activities including variance analysis and BvA reporting for G&A departments. * Corporate: Prepare board of directors, QFR, and investor-ready reporting decks. Manage billings actualization and forecasting, and deliver monthly finance readouts to executive leadership. * Partner with Accounting through the monthly close cycle, including soft close, hard close, and results review with budget owners. * Maintain rolling forecasts, provide variance commentary for material deviations, and lock forecasts on a monthly cadence. * Collaborate cross-functionally with recruiting, procurement, and department leaders on headcount and spend decisions. * Leverage AI tools to accelerate forecasting workflows, variance commentary, and ad-hoc analysis, setting the bar for AI-augmented FP&A on the team. What We’re Looking For * 5+ years of FP&A or strategic finance experience, ideally in a high-growth SaaS/tech environment. * Experience owning multiple cost centers or business lines simultaneously. * Fluency in SaaS financial metrics (ARR, NRR, gross margin, CAC, CLTV) and the ability to connect operating metrics to financial outcomes. * Strong financial modeling, forecasting, and budget-to-actual analysis skills. * Comfort with enterprise planning tools (Pigment, Adaptive, Anaplan, or similar), ERP systems (NetSuite preferred), and procurement platforms (Coupa or equivalent). * Experience preparing materials for board, executive, and investor audiences, distilling complex data into clear, actionable narratives. * Ability to operate independently across multiple stakeholder groups with minimal direction. * Strong business partnering instincts: you make department heads sharper, not slower. Nice to Have * Prior experience in a high-growth, pre-IPO environment. * Genuine AI fluency: you actively use AI tools to accelerate modeling, analysis, and communication in your daily work. * Familiarity with AWS/cloud cost tracking and COGS reporting. * Experience with HRIS/ATS systems (Workday, Ashby, Greenhouse) for headcount management. #LI-Remote #LI-JMS Equal Opportunity Employer ClickUp is an Equal Opportunity Employer, and qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, or national origin.
