About the Role

Vertice is looking for a data-driven FP&A Manager to sit at the heart of our finance function. This is a high-ownership role where you will hold the pen on our Financial Model, define and track the SaaS metrics that guide our strategy, and manage incentive compensation across the group. You won't just report the numbers—you will define what "good" looks like. You will partner with leadership to translate complex financial data into clear, actionable insights that drive efficiency and growth. If you love building scalable financial infrastructure and want to own the "brain" of a fast-growing SaaS business, this is the role for you.

Key Responsibilities

• Financial Modelling, Budgeting & Forecasting (Owner)
  • Own the Master Model: Build, maintain, and own Vertice's integrated three-statement financial model (P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow). Ensure it remains dynamic, accurate, and scalable as the business grows.
  • Run the Planning Cycle: Lead the annual budgeting and re-forecasting processes. Partner with department heads to build bottoms-up budgets that align with top-down strategic goals.
  • Scenario Planning: Provide rapid, accurate scenario analysis (e.g., hiring ramps, new market entries, efficiency measures) to support executive decision-making and fundraising activities.
• SaaS Metrics & Reporting (Owner)
  • Define the Metrics: Act as the custodian of our key SaaS metrics (ARR, NRR/GRR, CAC Payback, LTV, Magic Number). Ensure definitions are consistent and methodology is robust.
  • Board & Investor Reporting: Prepare monthly and quarterly reporting packs for the Board and investors. Move beyond "what happened" to explain why it happened and what we should do next.
  • Benchmarking: Constantly benchmark Vertice's performance against industry peers and "best-in-class" SaaS standards to highlight areas for operational improvement.
• Incentive Compensation Management
  • Plan Design & Modelling: Partner with Revenue Operations and Leadership to design incentive plans that drive the right behaviours while maintaining capital efficiency.
  • Administration & Accuracy: Own the end-to-end calculation and administration of commissions and variable compensation across the group. Ensure timely, accurate payouts and transparent communication to payees.
  • Performance Analysis: Analyse the ROI of incentive spend. Are our commission plans driving the intended results?
• Systems & Process Improvement
  • Automate Reporting: Lead the transition from manual Excel-based workflows to automated reporting where possible (e.g., implementing or optimizing FP&A/BI tools).
  • Data Integrity: Act as a bridge between Finance and Data teams to ensure the CRM and billing systems produce clean data necessary for accurate financial reporting.

Requirements

• Experience: 5+ years in FP&A or Commercial Finance, specifically within a high-growth B2B SaaS environment.
• Modelling Wizardry: You have best-in-class Excel/Google Sheets skills. You can build complex, integrated models from scratch that are logical, auditable, and error-free.
• SaaS Fluency: You have deep knowledge of SaaS unit economics. You know the difference between booked vs. recognized revenue and how to calculate a weighted CAC payback period.
• Incentive Comp Expertise: Hands-on experience designing or managing commission plans (e.g., OTEs, accelerators, cliffs) is essential.
• Systems Savvy: Experience with financial planning tools (e.g., Anaplan, Pigment), BI tools (Looker, Tableau), or Commission tools (Spiff, CaptivateIQ) is a strong plus.
• Communication: You can distill complex financial data into simple narratives for non-finance stakeholders.
