About the role

The Vice President, Corporate FP&A owns TNC’s consolidated financial plan - the enterprise budget, forecast, and long-range plan - pulling the Services and Deployment divisional plans into a single, board-ready view of the company. Reporting to the President & CFO, the role owns the corporate model, the management-reporting cadence, and the board and investor materials that carry TNC’s financial story. It sets the enterprise KPI framework, partners with the divisional finance leads on roll-up and consistency, and works alongside Treasury / IR, Capital Markets, and Commercial & Project Finance to connect the plan to capital allocation and the equity story. This is the central FP&A engine of a company - it must produce institutional-grade planning and reporting while the business and the project portfolio grow underneath it.

Responsibilities

  • Corporate planning & consolidation. Own the enterprise budget, forecast, and long-range plan; consolidate the Services and Deployment divisional plans into one integrated corporate model that ties to the balance sheet and cash flow.
  • Management & board reporting. Own the monthly and quarterly reporting package and business-review cadence; produce board- and investor-ready materials, KPI dashboards, and variance narratives for the CFO and CEO.
  • Enterprise KPIs & analytics. Define and maintain the enterprise KPI framework; ensure consistent metrics and definitions across divisions so consolidated results are comparable and decision-useful.
  • Capital allocation & decision support. Support capital-allocation decisions, scenario and sensitivity analysis, and long-range capital planning in partnership with Treasury / IR, Capital Markets, and Commercial & Project Finance (deal economics).
  • Institutional readiness. Build a scalable FP&A function with the forecasting, guidance, expectations modeling, and reporting cadence needed for the company’s next stage of growth - working with Controllership and External Reporting, and help stand up the systems and processes to get there.
  • Team & operating model. Lead and develop the corporate FP&A team; build a scalable, tech / AI-enabled planning function with wide spans and few layers.

Required Experience

  • 12+ years of progressive FP&A / finance experience, including a senior corporate FP&A leadership role (Head of FP&A, VP FP&A, or equivalent).
  • Ownership of an enterprise budget, forecast, and long-range plan in a multi-division or multi-entity company, including consolidation across business units.
  • Proven board / investor reporting - building the materials and narratives senior leadership and boards rely on.
  • Strong financial modeling and analytics; able to build and own an integrated three-statement corporate model.
  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, or a related field, or equivalent experience.

Preferred Experience

  • Capital-intensive, project / construction, or infrastructure sector experience; and/or services / multi-entity experience.
  • Strong data / AI fluency; experience modernizing planning tooling (EPM / FP&A systems, NetSuite, Palantir Foundry, or similar).
  • MBA and/or CPA / CFA.
  • Familiarity with nuclear, utilities, or highly regulated industrial sectors.

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.
