Represent FP&A's position on the definition and integrity of finance-critical metrics, contribute to cross-functional alignment on master data management, standardized reporting dimensions, and data governance frameworks, and translate between technical data discussions and finance audiences.
Forecasting Methodology and Accuracy: Support the evolution of Lightspeed's forecasting methodology and the framework used to assess forecasting accuracy. Identify structural sources of variance and contribute to improvements in how the team forecasts the business.
AI and Innovation: Integrate AI tools, automation, and emerging analytical techniques into the team's analytical workflows where they meaningfully improve quality or efficiency.

A flexible work environment that empowers you to do your best work
