FP&A Manager – AI-First Planning & Forecasting

About the role

Meteomatics is hiring an FP&A Manager in St. Gallen, Switzerland, to build the finance engine behind its next growth stage. This is a build role: you will own planning, forecasting and performance insight and redesign it to be automated, AI-assisted and decision-ready, rather than spreadsheet-driven and manual. You report to the CFO and work with the leadership team and the board.

Key responsibilities

• Run budget, rolling forecast and scenario planning across the data and drone businesses, making forecasts faster, more frequent and more accurate.
• Design automated data pipelines and agentic workflows (variance commentary, forecast refreshes, board pack drafts, anomaly detection) on top of NetSuite, HubSpot and other main tools.
• Deliver clear insight on ARR, retention, unit economics, margins and cash, with a point of view and recommendation.
• Partner with Sales, RevOps, Product and Operations, supporting pricing, headcount and investment decisions.
• Produce monthly, quarterly and annual reports that are accurate, on time and increasingly self-serve.
• Build business cases and models for investments, pricing, new markets and strategic initiatives, with scenarios and risks.
• Maintain the financial model and KPI data that underpin investor and bank conversations.
• Set standards for data quality, documentation and controls, and coach colleagues to use AI tools in finance work.

Required profile

• Bachelor's or Master's degree in Finance, Economics, Accounting or a related field.
• 3-5 years in FP&A, controlling or finance consulting, ideally in a scale-up or tech environment.
• Solid grasp of the recurring revenue (SaaS) model and metrics such as ARR, NRR and churn.
• Demonstrated AI-first habits, with examples of using LLMs and automation (e.g. agent workflows).
• Excellent English; German is a plus.

Required skills

• Strong modelling skills and hands-on experience with planning tools and ERP/CRM data (NetSuite, HubSpot).
• Sharp analytical thinking and stakeholder management, including challenging senior stakeholders.

What we offer

• Ownership of key finance processes and the freedom to introduce new tools, automation and AI-driven ways of working.
• Direct work with the CFO and leadership team, influencing strategic and commercial decisions.
• Broad exposure across commercial performance, operations, strategic investments and growth initiatives.
• An international, collaborative environment with flat hierarchies and short decision-making processes.
