Anaplan Architect & Sr. Model Builder

Role Summary

Our mission at Hub Spot is to help millions of organizations grow better. The Finance Transformation organization supports Hub Spot’s journey to a more automated, data-driven Finance function by combining process, data, and technology (including Anaplan) to enable more efficient processes and better, faster decision making across the business.

As the Anaplan Architect and Senior Model Builder, you’ll sit at the intersection of Strategic Workforce Planning, FP&A, Sales Operations, and Customer Success Anaplan teams. You’ll have a heavy focus on optimizing our Workforce Planning Anaplan model while also leading efforts to build a unified, connected planning environment across Hub Spot. This includes simplifying and consolidating siloed Anaplan data hubs into a centralized data hub, increasing model‑to‑model data sharing, and laying the groundwork for standardized best practices by partnering closely with other Anaplan model builders across the organization.

• Establish Anaplan as the single source of truth for headcount across FP&A, Workforce Planning, and operations teams.
• Enable scalable, repeatable headcount planning, forecasting, and in-year management processes.
• Define and champion reusable Anaplan standards (model design patterns, list structures, naming conventions, UX patterns) that can be applied across Hub Spot’s Anaplan landscape to drive consistency and scale.
• Consolidate and streamline Anaplan data hubs and planning processes so Hub Spot’s Anaplan environment operates as a unified, connected planning platform rather than a set of isolated models.
• Own the end-to-end architecture, design and ongoing optimization of the central Anaplan headcount model and related workforce planning use cases (annual planning, in-year forecasting, hiring plans, position management, and outlook reporting), using best-practice Anaplan design principles to keep the live model scalable, performant, and easy to use.
• Establish and maintain a single system of truth for headcount by centralizing headcount and position data in Anaplan and connecting it to downstream planning and reporting models (FP&A, Sales Ops, Customer Success, Talent Acquisition Management, etc).
• Design, build and manage integrations between Anaplan and core systems (e.g., Workday, Greenhouse, Net Suite, existing Anaplan models, and other data sources), partnering with Finance Transformation, Anaplan model builders, and tech teams to ensure robust, well-documented data flows.
• Partner with Strategic Workforce Planning, FP&A, and People teams to understand end-to-end headcount processes (plan-to-hire), define ideal-state workflows, and translate business requirements into intuitive Anaplan UX pages, modules, and processes.
• Implement strong data quality, control, and reconciliation practices for headcount and cost data flowing through Anaplan, in partnership with data and integration owners (e.g., ensuring clear ownership, validation checks, and error-handling SLAs across data pipelines).
• Define and contribute to Anaplan-wide standards
  , including model design patterns, list structures, naming conventions, performance tuning, access/security configuration, and documentation; coach more junior model builders and functional partners on best practices.
• Participate in roadmap buildout for company-wide goals and model-specific enhancements.
• Identify opportunities beyond headcount to expand connected planning capabilities
  , proactively assessing adjacent planning domains (e.g., NNARR planning, capacity planning, productivity, scenario modeling, or other cross-functional use cases). Design and implement scalable Anaplan solutions that advance Hub Spot’s vision of a truly connected, end-to-end planning environment.

• 4+ years of hands‑on experience building and maintaining complex Anaplan models in production environments.
• Demonstrated experience acting as a lead or architect for Anaplan solutions, including schema design, module architecture, and UX configuration.
• Strong understanding of workforce planning processes (annual planning, in‑year forecasting, position management, hiring plans) and their…
