About the Opportunity

We are seeking a hands-on Vice President, Financial Planning & Analysis to own enterprise-wide planning, forecasting, and performance analytics for a growth-stage SaaS business. This is not a purely oversight role, the VP, FP&A will be in the models directly, building and stress-testing scenarios, and translating the numbers into decisions. Reporting to the CFO, this person will be a key partner to executive leadership and business unit owners, and will play a central role in the company's next chapter of growth.

We're looking for someone who wants to build, not just review, someone as comfortable inside the mechanics of a model as they are presenting its output to the CFO and board. 

Key Responsibilities:

  • 10+ years of progressive finance experience, including FP&A leadership, with a track record of being genuinely hands-on in the model — not several layers removed from it.
  • Direct experience in a SaaS or recurring-revenue business, fluent in ARR, NRR, churn, cohort, and unit economics analysis.
  • Strong financial modeling and scenario-planning skills — able to build complex models from scratch and pressure-test assumptions in real time.
  • Exposure to an exit, sale process, recapitalization, refinancing, or similar transaction, with a working understanding of what "diligence-ready" actually looks like.
  • Executive presence — able to move fluidly between deep model work and clear, confident presentation to the CFO and board.
  • Strong judgment about what's urgent, what's important, and what can wait — able to prioritize across competing asks from the CFO, business leaders, and the sponsor.

Nice-to-haves:

  • M&A diligence or post-acquisition integration experience.
  • CPA, CFA, or MBA.
  • Prior experience building or scaling an FP&A function from a less mature state.

Compensation:

  • In the spirit of transparency, we are excited to share the base salary for this position is $200,000 - $240,000 USD and $185,000 - $225,000 CAD and exclusive of fringe benefits or potential bonuses. If you are hired at ClearGov, your final base salary compensation will be determined by factors such as skills, interview performance, education and/or experience. In addition to those factors, we believe in the importance of pay equity and consider internal equity of our current team members as a part of any final offer. Please keep in mind that the range mentioned above is the full base salary for the role. Hiring beyond the base range would not be typical in order to allow for future & continued salary growth. We also offer a generous compensation and benefits package (more information on benefits listed below).

Voluntary Self-Identification of Disability

Form CC-305
Page 1 of 1
OMB Control Number 1250-0005
Expires 07/31/2029

Why are you being asked to complete this form?

We are a federal contractor or subcontractor. The law requires us to provide equal employment opportunity to qualified people with disabilities. We have a goal of having at least 7% of our workers as people with disabilities. The law says we must measure our progress towards this goal. To do this, we must ask applicants and employees if they have a disability or have ever had one. People can become disabled, so we need to ask this question at least every five years.

Completing this form is voluntary, and we hope that you will choose to do so. Your answer is confidential. No one who makes hiring decisions will see it. Your decision to complete the form and your answer will not harm you in any way. If you want to learn more about the law or this form, visit the U.S. Department of Labor’s Office of Federal Contract Compliance Programs (OFCCP) website at www.dol.gov/ofccp.
