Senior Manager, FP&A at Aarki

<h2>Who Are We?</h2> <p>RZR is an AI-native advertising platform built for the next era of performance marketing. We operate at the intersection of machine learning, programmatic media, and full-funnel mobile growth, powering campaigns for some of the world's most ambitious advertisers. Our platform is purpose-built to deliver outcomes at scale, not just impressions.</p> <p>We are a team of builders, operators, and technologists who believe the advertising industry is overdue for a fundamental rethink. We move fast, operate with a high degree of ownership, and hold ourselves to an exceptionally high standard of craft.</p> <p>RZR is scaling aggressively with an active M&amp;A pipeline and a platform vision that puts us on a path to becoming an industry leader. This is a rare opportunity to join a company at an inflection point and help shape what it becomes.</p> <hr> <h2>Role Overview</h2> <p>As Senior Manager, FP&amp;A at RZR, you will own the FP&amp;A function end to end. Revenue forecasting and analytics, planning and modelling, business review, board and parent-company reporting, capex, financing, and corporate development support all sit with this role — along with the systems and processes the function runs on.</p> <p>This role is also the finance partner to Greater China, the fastest-growing revenue region in the company. Revenue forecasting and analytics alongside the China commercial team are a core part of the job, not an adjacent one.</p> <p>We are looking for a senior operator who can hold a number in front of the CEO, the VP Finance, and the parent company; lead and develop a team; and build what does not yet exist. The Head of FP&amp;A sets direction and standards. This role runs the function.</p> <hr> <h2>Key Responsibilities</h2> <h3>Revenue Forecasting and Analytics</h3> <ul> <li>Own the weekly revenue forecast cycle end to end: live business, pipeline, week-over-week movement, and the reported number that goes to the CRO and CEO</li> <li>Partner directly with the Greater China commercial team on regional revenue forecasting, pipeline quality, and client-level pacing</li> <li>Build and own revenue analytics across client, platform, product line, and region, including growth decomposition, retention, and concentration views</li> <li>Own client and platform margin analysis, take rate and pricing analytics, and bring recommendations to commercial teams rather than observations</li> <li>Own the daily and weekly revenue reporting standard, including driver attribution and the margin bridge</li> </ul> <h3>Planning and Modelling</h3> <ul> <li>Own the annual operating plan build end to end, including the driver structure, assumption set, and leadership review</li> <li>Own the driver-based multi-year financial model covering revenue, headcount, margin, and capex</li> <li>Own the monthly rolling forecast refresh and the accuracy discipline around it</li> <li>Run scenario and sensitivity analysis behind growth, investment, and hiring decisions</li> </ul> <h3>Business Review, Board and Parent Reporting</h3> <ul> <li>Own the weekly business review financial assessment: regional blocks, company overview, and cross-functional outputs</li> <li>Own the quarterly business review financial section end to end</li> <li>Own the monthly results pack: variance analysis, plan versus actual, and written commentary a non-finance leader can act on</li> <li>Own the board deck financial section, with full trace-back on every figure</li> <li>Own parent-company and investor reporting requests, with sourcing that stands up to audit</li> </ul> <h3>Capital, Capex and Corporate Finance</h3> <ul> <li>Own capex planning and the business cases behind infrastructure and platform investment</li> <li>Own financing models including multi-year debt and capital structure work</li> <li>Support corporate development: diligence, valuation, synergy, and integration modelling</li> </ul> <h3>Finance Systems and Process</h3> <ul> <li>Build the systems and processes the function runs on — convert recurring manual work into documented, repeatable, and automated process</li> <li>Set and hold model and workbook standards: centralised assumptions, minimal hardcoding, version control, documented logic</li> <li>Own the FP&amp;A data layer: source definitions, reconciliation logic, and refresh cadence</li> </ul> <h3>Team Leadership</h3> <ul> <li>Lead the FP&amp;A team — all FP&amp;A managers and analysts report to this role</li> <li>Set the review standard for the function;

You are not inheriting a playbook; you are writing one.</li> <li><strong>Direct and frequent exposure to the CEO, COO, and VP Finance from day one</strong> — in a company of this size, finance work is read at the top. Your work and your judgment will be visible immediately.</li> <li><strong>Finance partner to the fastest-growing revenue region in the business</strong> — Greater China is where the growth is.
