Senior FP&A Analyst

Objective

You’ll be a force multiplier for the VP of Finance, building deep fluency in Sunday’s core financial and operating metrics so you can represent finance credibly in rooms the VP of Finance can’t always be in. You won’t own the forecasting models, cash model, or board reporting, but you’ll understand them well enough to explain them, defend them under questioning, and gather what’s needed to keep them accurate. Strong analytical instincts, clear communication, and the judgment to know when something needs to be escalated versus handled in the room are what make this role work.

Responsibilities

• Develop deep working knowledge of Sunday’s cohort retention, revenue, cash, and gross margin models well enough to explain drivers and answer questions from stakeholders without VP of Finance involvement

• Represent finance in recurring meetings with middle and upper management on customer acquisition, inventory, retail strategy, and pricing, arriving prepared, contributing constructively, and flagging anything that needs VP of Finance attention

• Support the VP of Finance in maintaining and refining forecasting and cash models, including data gathering, variance analysis, and identifying discrepancies before they become material

• Own the mechanics of recurring reporting and dashboards, working with Data Science and Accounting to ensure timely, accurate inputs, freeing the VP of Finance from data assembly to focus on analysis and strategy

• Prepare first-draft analysis on gross margin, COGS variance, and price/volume/mix impacts for VP of Finance review, not final sign-off

• Support the annual budgeting process, coordinating department-level inputs, consolidating submissions, and building supporting schedules under VP of Finance direction

• Partner with the Assistant Controller to run the monthly reforecast cycle, updating the model with actuals, flagging material variances, and preparing clean, explainable drivers behind the movement from prior forecast to current

• Co-lead budget-vs-actual and forecast-vs-actual review meetings with department leaders alongside the Assistant Controller, walking through variances, asking the right follow-up questions, and synthesizing takeaways for the VP of Finance

• Assist in preparing materials for board and investor reporting under VP of Finance direction, without independently representing the company in those conversations

• Build enough cross-functional relationship capital across Tech, Ops, Retail, and Marketing to gather information efficiently and be seen as a credible finance partner, not just a data-puller

Functional Competencies:

• 3+ years of experience in Finance

• You have experience in subscription eCommerce and CPG and have a deep understanding of how these industries influence financial needs across Sunday.

• Prefer experience working in a startup and the ability to pivot and change direction quickly

• Financial planning and modeling skills.

• Expert proficiency in Excel.

• Comfortable working in a remote setting

• Self-starter who is comfortable with ambiguity

• Prior experience participating in company-wide annual and quarterly planning processes

• Ability to quickly and coherently synthesize complex data sets, derive insights, and explain financial topics to a non-financial audience.
