Senior FP&A Analyst / Finance Business Partner

This position is listed on behalf of a partner company, who manages all applications and next steps. Our partner is looking for a Senior FP&A Analyst / Finance Business Partner based in Germany.

This is a high-impact finance role focused on turning financial data into clear business decisions and measurable outcomes. You will take ownership of budgeting, forecasting, financial modeling, and performance analysis across a fast-growing technology environment. Working closely with Sales, Operations, Product, Marketing, and Engineering, you will act as a strategic finance partner rather than a reporting-only analyst. You will bring visibility into margins, pipeline performance, channel profitability, and core SaaS unit economics. The role offers direct exposure to leadership, with opportunities to influence planning, investment decisions, pricing, and growth initiatives. You will also help strengthen FP&A systems, automate reporting, and improve the reliability of financial insights across the organization. This is an opportunity for a commercially minded finance professional to combine analytical rigor with meaningful business ownership.
