## Job description

Our Company

The U.S. construction permitting process is a black box. Over 500,000 forms and 20,000 processes, yet 95% of cities use the same building code. Every permitting delay costs businesses revenue, stalls expansion, and disrupts construction schedules.

Founded in 2022 by builders, entrepreneurs, and industry experts, [GreenLite](https://greenlite.com)eliminates permitting uncertainty for developers nationwide. We combine AI-powered technology with an in-house team of registered architects, engineers, and city planners to deliver the fastest, most predictable path to permit approval. Our expert-led compliance process ensures plans are code-ready before submission, reducing revisions, delays, and costs.

GreenLite has raised $86M in venture funding from leading investors including Insight Partners, Energize Capital, Craft Ventures, LiveOak Ventures, Trust Ventures, and Chicago Ventures. National brands, including Walgreens, TD Bank, and Driven Brands, trust us to accelerate approvals, reduce risk, and unlock growth.

About the Role: GreenLite is an AI-native permitting intelligence company backed by Insight Partners and Craft Ventures, and we are growing quickly. As Director of FP&A, you will partner with the CFO and leadership team to guide decisions on pricing, sales capacity, and capital allocation. You will build on a strong finance foundation and take our planning and analytics to the next level. Permitting is a major industry we are modernizing, and finance plays a central role in how we scale.

What You'll Do:

- Strategic Planning: Partner with CFO in leading the company’s annual budgeting, long-range strategic planning, monthly and intra-month forecasting.
- Financial Modelling: Own all financial models for evaluation of business performance, capital raising and key stakeholder reporting.
- Management Reporting: Prepare insightful dashboards to be used cross-functionally which highlight key performance indicators and variance analyses.
- Key Business Partner: Collaborate closely with critical stakeholders to manage expenses, business performance and strategic initiatives.
- Process Optimization: Work with Product, Sales/Revenue Operations, Legal and Finance to optimize systems integrations, process and data fidelity.
- Sales Analytics: Partner with CRO and Head of Revenue Operations to provide insights on Sales team activity and performance.

About You:

- Education: Bachelor’s degree
- Experience: Minimum of 5-7+ years in FP&A is required
- Systems: Experience with CRMs and Financial ERPs; Rillet and Hubspot is a plus but not required. Passion for automation and AI is a must.
- Technical Skills: Expert-level proficiency in Microsoft Excel and financial modelling is required.
- Analytical & Strategic Mindset: Ability to analyze complex financial data, identify trends and translate them into actionable strategic recommendations for leadership.
- Leadership & Communication: Proven ability to be a player-coach and possess excellent written and verbal communication skills to influence stakeholders across the organization.
- Industry Knowledge: Experience with tech-abled services is a plus but not a must. Deep understanding of business operations and GAAP principles required
