Transform the everyday with us! 

We are seeking a finance leader who blends strong core finance capabilities with advanced data analytics, visualization, and emerging AI techniques. This role is ideal for someone with a flexible, “switching gears” mindset—able to move seamlessly between building digital solutions (automation, dashboards, analytics products) and delivering high-quality routine finance execution (forecasting, reporting, controls). The successful candidate will enable performance transparency and decision support through modern insights while also ensuring accurate, timely financial outcomes. 

We are looking for an FP&A Controller in Digital Industries Automation. This position can be remote with a preference for the Alpharetta/Atlanta, Georgia area.

You'll make an impact by:

Finance Execution & Business Performance Support:

• Deliver insightful standard and ad-hoc financial reporting and commentary (P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow) to drive business understanding and actions.

• Guide analysis of financial results to ensure accuracy and completeness, surfacing risks/opportunities with clear recommendations.

• Maintain a strong internal control mindset; support audit/internal control requirements and promote “clean books and records.

Data Analytics, Visualization & Digitalization Solutions: 

• Build and maintain executive-ready dashboards, reporting products, and analytics solutions that increase transparency and accelerate decision-making through data visualization. 

• Translate business questions into data models, metrics, and insight narratives— “reading between the lines of the data”—and communicating findings in a stakeholder-friendly way.

• Drive process optimization by streamlining reports and automating recurring activities, understanding input drivers and upstream operational steps that lead to results 

• Support / improve data flows and validations across finance systems and reporting layers (e.g., SAP and reporting tools), ensuring data integrity across month-end and forecasting processes.

• Apply AI and advanced analytics approaches where they add value (e.g., forecasting enhancement, predictive signals, anomaly detection, next-best-question insights), while keeping outputs explainable and decision-oriented.

 Agile Collaboration & “Two-Speed” Mindset 

• Operate effectively in a dynamic environment—balancing routine deadlines (close/forecast cadence) with exploratory problem-solving and solution buildouts.

• Partner cross-functionally to gather requirements, iterate quickly, and deliver usable analytics tools—showing a hands-on, growth mindset and comfort with change.

• Influence outcomes without relying on formal authority; facilitate alignment across stakeholders through clear communication and structured problem-solving.

You’ll win us over by having the following qualifications:  

Basic Qualifications:  

• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, Business Analytics, or a related field.
• 3-5 years of experience working with large datasets and delivering insights through analytics and visualization.
• 3-5 years of experience with improving/streamlining financial processes and reporting, with a mindset for continuous improvement and automation.
• 3-5 years of experience with capability in analytics and visualization tools (e.g., Power BI / Tableau) and data manipulation.
• 3-5 years of experience in a role that blends digital transformation with core finance process execution.
• Legally authorized to work in the United States on a continual and permanent basis without company sponsorship now or in the future.

Preferred Qualifications:  

• Strong finance foundation in FP&A / controlling/performance management, including variance analysis and management reporting. 
• Familiarity with finance process flows and enterprise systems (e.g., SAP) and connecting source-to-report outcomes.
• Comfortable operating across both structured routines (close/forecast) and ambiguous, solution-building work 

 You’ll benefit from:
