Job Description
About Us:
We’re on a mission to make it possible for every person, team, and company to be able to tailor their software to solve any problem and take on any challenge. Computers may be our most powerful tools, but most of us can’t build or modify the software we use on them every day. At Notion, we want to change this with focus, design, and craft.
We’ve been working on this together since 2016, and have customers like Pixar, Mitsubishi, Figma, Plaid, Match Group, and thousands more on this journey with us. Today, we’re growing fast and excited for new teammates to join us who are the best at what they do. We’re passionate about building a company as diverse and creative as the millions of people Notion reaches worldwide.
Notion is an in person company, and currently requires its employees to come to the office for two Anchor Days (Mondays & Thursdays) and requests that employees spend the majority of their week in the office (including a third day).
About The Role:
We are looking for a highly analytical and strategic Head of Corporate FP&A to partner and guide our leadership team during one of the most pivotal times for Notion. Corporate FP&A is a critical function for Notion, sitting at the center of the broader finance team to help the CFO, Notion’s leadership and investors gain financial visibility and insights on the business. This team runs Notions’ financial processes, including our Annual Planning process and quarterly forecasts, and helps architect the information flow and methodologies we need for dynamic business partnership. Corporate FP&A sets the parameters and forecast processes for the finance team, and partners with other key operational teams on the moving pieces that impact our financial outlook (tax, accounting, treasury, facilities, departmental leaders). You will work with partners across finance and the broader leadership team.

- Own and manage the operating plan and key financial processes, including budget planning, forecasting, monthly BvAs and long-range planning

- Apply an analytical approach to influence strategic decision-making, with a focus on capital allocation decisions, long-term financial planning and equity management
- Lead, manage, and scale a high performing Corporate FP&A team, responsible for Corporate and financial business partnerships across G&A, S&M and R&D
- Drive departmental specific analyses, examples including workforce strategy, AI strategy, GTM strategy
- Develop new processes or improve existing processes relating to financial planning and reporting, including setting the vision for our financial systems roadmap
- Collaborate with team members across Finance & Accounting to ensure accurate, timely financial close and reporting
- Develop business narrative to support external reporting
Skills You’ll Need to Bring:
- 15+ years of relevant finance/FP&A experience (including 8+ years in leadership roles), in a B2B and B2C2B SaaS environment
- Have experience leading a Corporate FP&A function through both rapid growth and operating at scale
- Have extensive experience partnering with cross-functional leaders to deliver a strategy for long-term, efficient growth, and establish financial framework for investment decisions
- Have experience with headcount planning, workforce management planning, and accurate cost modeling
- Excellent proficiency in accounting and corporate finance concepts, including fluency at translating between GAAP and non-GAAP financial metrics, building detailed 3 statement models
- Experience driving financial planning and business systems implementations
- Deep understanding of B2B SaaS businesses (including metrics and customer lifecycle) for both product-led-growth and sales-led motions
- Demonstrate strong leadership and mentorship skills to hire, develop and manage a growing team
- Willingness to roll-up sleeves to dive into financial models — highly proficient in Excel / Google Sheets is a must
- Thrive in a fast-paced environment and adapt well to change
- Have excellent business judgement with “get it done” attitude
