What do we do?

Paddle offers digital product companies a completely different approach to their payment infrastructure. Instead of assembling and maintaining a complex stack of payments-related apps and services, we're a Merchant of Record for our customers. That means we take away 100% of the pain of payment fragmentation. It's faster, safer, cheaper, and, above all, way better.

We're backed by investors including KKR, FTV Capital, Kindred, Notion, and 83North and serve over 6000 software sellers in 245 territories globally.

The Role:

We're looking for a sharp, commercially-minded Director of FP&A to lead the FP&A function at Paddle and drive performance across revenue growth, cost discipline, and analysis to inform and guide capital allocation decisions.

Reporting directly to our VP of Finance, you'll serve as the connective tissue between finance and the broader leadership team. You'll own the rhythm by which Paddle plans, forecasts, and a key influencer on business decisions.

This is an exciting moment to join: we've intentionally paused to redesign how FP&A operates at Paddle, and we're building for the next chapter of growth.

What you'll do

•

Build and develop the FP&A team, providing clear direction, regular coaching and development opportunities and hiring to scale capacity in line with business needs

•

Partner with GTM, Product & Engineering, and functional leaders to build investment cases, surface unit economics insights, and embed finance as a performance partner in business decisions, including on deal desk decisions, commission plans design, and partnership opportunities.

•

Co-author board and CFO/CEO materials, translating complex financial data into clear narratives on revenue, cost, and capital allocation

•

Lead Paddle's end-to-end planning cycle — from the annual budget, monthly forecasts, and long-range plans in Pigment

•

Own and advance the Pigment platform, acting as product lead to drive more effectiveness from our streamline our 3-statement forecasting, revenue planning, and reporting structures.

•

Drive the Monthly Business Review and QBR cadences: producing standardised packs, facilitating cross-functional discussions, and ensuring leadership leaves each session with clear prioritised actions

We'd love to hear from you if you

•

Have significant FP&A leadership experience in a high-growth marketplace, SaaS or technology business

•

Have a track record of building or transforming an FP&A function into a function that is business impact driven, vs. merely producing reporting oriented.

•

Are a confident business partner who can operate across all levels — from C-suite to VPs and functional directors — translating financial insight into decisions that move the business

•

Are a systems oriented thinker, that is wired to optimize the recurring work, that will enable more of the team’s time spent on project-work that drives business impact.

•

A history of effective use and progressive development of modern planning platforms (Pigment preferred) and can own tooling as a product, not just in a “maintenance” role.

•

Bring commercial instincts alongside technical rigour — you're as comfortable being the architect for complex revenue cohort models that your team will build, while at the same time being able to synthesise implications of that modelling to business leaders to help guide investment decisions to support growth

•

Have led a full annual planning cycle end-to-end, including budgeting, forecasting, consolidation, and board reporting
