Qualys is looking for an FP&A Manager to take ownership of functional P&L planning, budgeting, forecasting, and reporting for assigned business segments - the core FP&A work that drives our financial planning rhythm. You'll need strong analytical and systems skills, a partnership orientation for working with business stakeholders, the ability to manage the Company's financial model and strategic goals, and strong attention to detail. We're an AI-forward team and we want someone hands-on with modern tools - actively building them into how they work, not waiting for the workflows to be handed to them.
Job Summary
The FP&A Manager is responsible for all aspects of functional P&L budgeting and forecasting - monthly, quarterly, and annual planning - and supports the monthly/quarterly close process and board reporting. You'll be the FP&A point person for assigned business partners, working closely with them on both headcount and non-headcount / vendor spend. Strong analytical skills, exceptional communication, and the ability to collaborate effectively across departments are foundational.
The bulk of the role is the recurring planning rhythm - that's where the value is. Project work - automation, reporting design, scenario modeling - follows from doing that core work well, and a builder's mindset about your AI tools tends to accelerate the on-ramp to get there.
