Relativity is a place where creativity and technical rigor go hand in hand, and your voice will help define the stories we're writing together.

About the Team:

The Finance team spans FP&A, corporate development, and business operations, combining financial rigor with deep technical context. From shaping the company's long-term strategy to supporting capital raises and driving operational insights, this team sits at the center of critical decision-making. With a small, high-impact team, you'll have the opportunity to stretch across disciplines, influence the trajectory of the company, and deliver meaningful value back into the business every day.

About the Role:

We are hiring a Senior Manager, Corporate Finance to own our company-wide planning, reporting, and executive communication cadence, and to lead a team of G&A Finance Business Partners. You will set the standard for how we synthesize financial performance and present it to leadership and the Board. It is a high-visibility role that suits someone who can build detailed models and then explain what they mean to senior leadership. This role reports to the Senior Director, Finance and will play a key leadership role within a team of three G&A Finance Business Partners.

Own the Monthly Business Review (MBR) process from start to finish. Set timelines and drive accountability across all financial business partners and department leaders, while synthesizing financial and operational commentary into a clear, cohesive enterprise-wide narrative for executive leadership and the Board, proactively surfacing risks and opportunities and turning detailed variance analysis into a few clear takeaways.

Use Planful to pull, structure, and analyze complex datasets, and build reporting dashboards that let functional leaders monitor budget-to-actual performance independently.

Drive standardization and continuous improvement across our planning and reporting processes, raising the bar on speed, accuracy, and consistency as the company scales.

Help manage and mentor a team of G&A Finance Business Partners who support HR, IT, Legal, and other functions, and act as a trusted advisor to those department heads on headcount, resource allocation, and operating expense.
