Job description

Who We Are Neighborly Software was built to help communities make a difference in the lives of low-income families and vulnerable populations. Our mission is simple, “Helping Communities, Help People.” Headquartered in Atlanta, GA we offer a cloud-based technology platform for the administration and disbursement of governments funds for programs such as Housing, Economic, Community Development, Disaster Recovery/MIT, Home Energy Rebate Programs, and Housing Choice Voucher programs. Role: Senior Financial Analyst Location: Atlanta (Hybrid) Reports to: CFO We're growing fast and we're hiring a Senior FP&A Analyst to sit right next to our CFO and help run the numbers behind every major decision we make — budgets, board materials, SaaS metrics, pricing, the works. In this role, you'll be part of a small but mighty Finance and Accounting team, working directly with the CFO and cross-functional exec team members. We want someone who looks at how we currently do FP&A and asks, "why are we still doing this by hand?" — and then goes and fixes it, using automation and AI to get the team out of spreadsheets and into real-time insight. If you've ever finished a budgeting cycle and immediately started redesigning the process so next year doesn't hurt as much, this role was built for you. What You Will Be Doing · Own and continuously improve the annual budgeting process and rolling forecasts across departments. · Partner with department leaders to build, monitor, and refine budgets, spending plans, and headcount plans. · Develop ad hoc financial and operational analyses that support strategic and day-to-day business decisions. · Serve as a trusted thought partner to the CFO and executive team, providing analysis and recommendations that inform key decisions. · Prepare board materials, investor reporting packages, and executive-level presentations. · Design, build, and maintain KPI dashboards and reporting tools that give leadership real-time visibility into business and financial performance. · Track and analyze core SaaS metrics (e.g., ARR, MRR, churn, CAC, LTV, gross margin, rule of 40) and translate them into clear, actionable insights. · Work cross-functionally with Sales, Marketing, Customer Success, Product, and Tech to keep the numbers and the strategy in sync. · Lead the introduction and adoption of AI and automation to eliminate repetitive manual work and enable faster, real-time reporting and insight generation. · Support financial modeling for new initiatives, pricing decisions, and investment/business-case evaluations. · Continuously evaluate existing processes with a bias toward improvement — proactively questioning the status quo and recommending better ways of working. · Ensure the accuracy, integrity, and timeliness of financial data, models, and analyses. · Take on additional projects and responsibilities as the finance function scales. Qualifications · Bachelor’s degree in finance, accounting, economics, or a related field. · 5+ years of progressive experience in financial planning & analysis, corporate finance, or a related field, ideally within a high-growth environment (SaaS experience strongly preferred). · Advanced Excel modeling skills; experience with BI/reporting tools (e.g., Power BI, Tableau, Looker) is a plus. · Familiarity with AI-enabled tools, scripting (Python/SQL), or automation platforms is a strong plus. · Demonstrated experience implementing automation and process improvements Who Thrives Here · A problem-solver who challenges the status quo · People with a strong sense of ownership, intellectual curiosity, and a bias toward action. · A collaborative, low-ego team player who builds trust easily across the organization--from colleagues to the board. Why You’ll Love Working Here: - Comprehensive Benefits – Medical, Dental, Vision plan options and Company-Paid Short-Term Disability and Life Insurance - 401K Contributions – Generous employer match with immediate vesting - Generous Time Off – 5 weeks of PTO, 9 paid holidays, and 3 days of volunteer time off each year Neighborly Software is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
