Key Responsibilities
Own and improve enterprise business reporting
Lead the planning, coordination, and execution of key enterprise reporting forums, including the Monthly Business Review and Quarterly Business Review.
This includes:
- Managing the end-to-end cadence for MBRs and QBRs
- Coordinating across senior functional leaders to gather inputs, align narratives, and ensure materials are clear and decision-ready
- Improving the quality, consistency, and effectiveness of reporting materials over time
- Applying learnings from prior meetings to continuously evolve the format, content, and process
- Ensuring meetings are focused on the right business questions, performance trends, risks, opportunities, and decisions
Support enterprise-level strategic planning
Partner with Finance and senior leadership on core strategic planning initiatives, including the long-range plan and other enterprise planning processes.
This includes:
- Supporting the development of the long-range plan in partnership with Finance and business leaders
- Running market, growth, and share analyses to help inform strategic priorities
- Synthesizing data from key internal and external sources into clear insights for the CFO and executive leadership team
- Helping translate business performance, market context, and company priorities into compelling strategic narratives
- Support in translating executive-level priorities, strategy updates, and key takeaways from MBR/QBR forums into clear, appropriately tailored communications for broader senior teams, helping maintain consistency and coherence across the organization.
- Supporting the operating rhythm around annual, quarterly, and ad-hoc planning cycles
Drive CFO-led strategic initiatives
Support ad-hoc strategic planning initiatives that originate from the CFO’s office.
This person should be comfortable moving between structured recurring processes and more ambiguous strategic work. They should be able to quickly frame a problem, gather the right inputs, build the analysis, and create clear materials for executive discussion.
Examples may include:

- Growth opportunity assessment
- Cross-functional strategic initiatives
- Executive presentations and board-level materials
- Business performance deep dives
- Planning process improvements
Reporting structure
This role will report into the CFO’s organization and work closely with the Snr Director FP&A, executive leadership team, and senior functional leaders across the business. The Director of Strategic Planning will serve as a key connective point between Finance, Strategy, and functional leadership — helping ensure the company’s enterprise planning and reporting processes are clear, consistent, and effective as the business scales.
