Vice President of Financial Planning & Analysis $200,000 USD/year Pay is set based on global value, not the local market.
Most roles = hourly rate x 40 hrs x 50 weeks
Description
This role reimagines FP&A as a financial operating system for decision-makers who build.
2 Hour Learning is assembling a national school network designed for speed and execution. Decisions happen every day, and financial insight must move at the same velocity. You will not be producing quarterly retrospectives or relying on data teams to surface what matters. Instead, you will construct the forecasting models, live dashboards, and control frameworks that equip operators and leadership with the clarity required to act with conviction—on a daily cadence. Your output underpins everything from new campus rollouts to strategic course corrections, and it must be reliable, current, and actionable.
You will oversee an integrated, AI-enhanced finance infrastructure. This includes consolidated P&L models segmented by school and business line. Forecasts spanning 12 to 18 months that remain synchronized within 72 hours of operational reality. Executive dashboards engineered to isolate the handful of inputs that truly drive outcomes. You will deploy AI platforms such as ChatGPT and Copilot to compress analysis cycles and remove friction. This is not about designing systems from the ground up—it is about leveraging available technology to deliver results faster.
This position is not suited to those who gravitate toward traditional organizational structures. It is designed for finance leaders weary of red tape and prolonged approval chains. You employ AI to multiply your output and expect your financial models to shape execution, not merely document history. You will not observe from the periphery. You will occupy a central role in how this organization advances.
What you will be doing
- Construct and sustain dynamic three-statement financial models for every school and vertical, integrating enrollment projections, headcount planning, and capital expenditure into unified forecasts.
- Refresh rolling 12 to 18 month forecasts on a weekly basis, incorporating current data and stress-testing scenarios for both upside opportunity and downside exposure.
- Produce executive dashboards powered by real-time data streams, surfacing critical levers and supporting confident, daily decision-making.
- Deploy AI-driven tools to compress analytical timelines, identify outliers, monitor variance trends, and eliminate manual spreadsheet dependencies throughout finance workflows.
- Author concise executive memos summarizing financial exposure, strategic alternatives, and budgetary trade-offs at board presentation quality, delivered within 72 hours.
What you will NOT be doing
- Overseeing drawn-out budgeting cycles or generating reports that sit unread—your forecasts adapt in real time alongside the business, and your analysis informs decisions within days.
- Auditing expense categories or tracking down receipts—your mandate is strategic clarity and financial control, not procedural enforcement.
- Depending on business intelligence teams—you will create the dashboards, tools, and models directly.
- Sifting through irrelevant detail—your focus is extracting the critical few insights that shift trajectory.
- Engineering automation platforms from zero—you will apply AI tools to accelerate execution, not architect technical infrastructure.
Key responsibilities
Maintain continuously updated financial models, forecasts, and executive dashboards that enable daily decision-making and strategic foresight across a fast-expanding portfolio of schools.
Candidate requirements
- Willing to work at least 3 hours of daily overlap with US business hours (08:00 - 17:00 US EST / UTC-5)
- 5+ years in investment banking, private equity, Big 4 corp finance/M&A (not audit), or high-growth FP&A
- Proven experience building integrated 3-statement models tied to U.S. GAAP
- Comfortable delivering investor-grade analysis and recommendations under tight deadlines
- Experience using AI tools (e.g., ChatGPT, Copilot, Claude) to accelerate financial analysis, document generation, and data processing
Nice to have
- CPA/CFA/MBA certification
- ERP experience in NetSuite, Oracle, or SAP
- Familiarity with multi-site education, facilities, or ops-heavy industries
- Experience with board-level reporting or investor-facing materials
- Experience building AI-automated dashboards or low-code finance tools
- Exposure to high-end service environments with exacting financial standards
