About the role
Spacelift is growing fast, and we're ready to move beyond reporting the numbers to actually steering the business with them. We're hiring a Senior FP&A Analyst/ Finance Business Partnerto help us understand our margins, our channel profitability, and what really drives our unit economics.
You'll sit close to the commercial side of the business, working with Sales, Ops, and Product, Marketing & Engineering, and turn financial data into decisions people can actually act on. It's a role with direct exposure to leadership and real ownership from day one.
Your mission
You'll own the numbers that matter and make sure the business trusts them. Concretely, that means:
Owning the annual budget process and quarterly/rolling forecasts, in partnership with department heads.
Building and maintaining financial models for P&L, headcount, opex, and cash flow, and tracking budget vs. actual variances with real explanations, not just numbers.
Acting as the finance point of contact for Sales, Ops, and Product, Marketing & Engineering, embedded in how they plan and decide.
Building visibility into the sales pipeline (stage-by-stage conversion, coverage, weighted forecast) and analyzing channel and partner profitability, including margins and incentive costs vs. return.
Preparing monthly and quarterly management reporting, supporting board and investor materials, and developing our core SaaS metrics (ARR, NRR, CAC, LTV, gross margin, burn multiple).
Pulling and connecting data across CRM, billing, and finance systems for recurring and ad hoc analysis, including strategic projects like pricing changes or new market entry.
Improving our FP&A tooling and reporting automation, and keeping tight alignment with the Controller on actuals vs. forecast.
About you
at least 5 years of experience in financial analysis, controlling, fp&a, with strong exposure to B2B commercial environments.
Hands-on experience in planning, budgeting, and financial modeling.
A track record of partnering with commercial teams, not just producing reports for them.
You turn numbers into stories, and stories back into numbers, for people who don't live in spreadsheets.
You communicate directly and constructively, and you're comfortable pushing back on stakeholders when the numbers say something different.
You're curious by nature. You dig into the "why" behind a number instead of stopping at the "what."
Strong Excelskills and genuine business acumen. SaaS or software experience helps, but what matters more is that you already think about a business as a product with unit economics.
Fluency in English & Polish
Nice to have

Experience with BI tools such as Power BI or Tableau.
Familiarity with Salesforce or similar CRM data.
