Opportunity

Unit4 is hiring an FP&A Manager to lead the financial planning, reporting and analytical agenda for our recurring revenue base — a strategically critical area of one of the fastest-growing PE-backed SaaS organisations in Europe. This is a step-up opportunity for a finance professional ready to broaden their remit beyond pure analysis — turning insight into action through business partnering, with the goal of maximising customer lifetime value across our recurring revenue base.

The role is based in Lisbon and reports into the Senior FP&A Manager – Revenue, with a small team of analysts reporting to you.

Key responsibilities

• Lead and develop a small team of FP&A analysts, taking ownership of their workstreams, growth and quality of output
• Own revenue assurance — ensuring reported ARR, NRR, GRR, churn and recurring revenue metrics are accurate, well-controlled and tell a coherent story
• Drive month-end close analysis on the revenue side, including variance analysis against budget and forecast, and production of the monthly Revenue narrative for management and investor consumption
• Own the production and quality of recurring reporting deliverables, including the monthly sponsor pack, budget packs, sponsor reporting requests, and ad hoc requests from business leadership
• Lead strategic projects on the revenue side of the business, including customer cancellation deep-dives, retention and churn analysis, pricing strategy reviews and segment profitability
• Work closely with stakeholders across Customer Success, Revenue Operations and the wider Finance function — identifying and acting on opportunities to improve customer retention and lifetime value
• Lead the data quality and governance agenda for the Revenue pillar, establishing standards and ensuring the team operates from a clean, controlled and trusted dataset
• Drive process improvement and automation across the Revenue pillar — turning the recurring reporting and analytical workload into an opportunity to introduce new tools, automation and AI-augmented workflows that elevate the team's output
• Support forecast and budget cycles for recurring revenue, working closely with the broader FP&A team and stakeholders across the business
• Step in on broader pillar priorities as required, supporting the Senior FP&A Manager across strategic finance projects and senior stakeholder requests

Experience and background

• Excellent academic credentials; educated to degree level
• Big 4 / consulting firm background preferred, ideally combined with industry FP&A experience
• Experience in SaaS or other recurring revenue businesses preferred
• Familiarity with private equity-backed environments and the disciplines that come with them (sponsor reporting, board-level deliverables, exit readiness) is an advantage
• Experience leading or coaching analysts; comfortable taking ownership of a team's growth and output

Skills and capability

• Strong analytical capability with the ability to translate complex data into clear, decision-useful insights
• Excellent commercial mindset — able to think strategically about the business, not just report on it
• Advanced Excel and PowerPoint; familiarity with modern analytical and reporting tools (Power BI, Snowflake, AI-assisted workflows) an advantage
• Excellent written and verbal communication, including to senior stakeholders; fluent English required

Personal attributes

• Sense of urgency for performance improvement, action-oriented, results-focused
• Strength of character to enforce financial disciplines — does the right thing under pressure
• Self-starter, able to take initiative and thrive in a fast-paced, rapidly changing environment
• Creates strong personal partnerships and alliances, gains the respect of colleagues
• A good balance of intellect, energy and humility — proactive, team-oriented, and willing to roll up sleeves
