Senior Manager, Corporate Financial Planning and Analysis

It's fun to work in a company where people truly BELIEVE in what they're doing! We're committed to bringing passion and customer focus to the business. About Avid Avid Technology is the global leader in media technology solutions, powering the creation of the most listened-to, most watched, and most loved content in the world. Avid's industry‑leading hardware and software solutions are used by the world's top creative professionals — from Hollywood studios and major broadcasters to independent artists and musicians — across audio and video production, post‑production, and media management.

Avid is a private‑equity‑backed company at an exciting inflection point. We are investing in transforming our financial infrastructure and building a best‑in‑class FP&A function to position the business for long‑term growth.

This is a hands‑on finance role for an experienced FP&A professional who enjoys strengthening and modernizing core planning and reporting processes in a complex, PE‑backed software environment. Reporting to the SVP of FP&A, this person will help coordinate the annual operating plan, own the build‑out and administration of the company's financial planning software (currently Net Suite Planning and Budgeting), and play a central role in the monthly close‑to‑report cadence that connects accounting results to business decision‑making.

You will partner closely with the SVP of FP&A, Accounting, and the CFO and other executive leaders, and will take direct ownership of a meaningful slice of lender and investor reporting, three‑statement modeling, and cash forecasting. This role also leads 1–2 Financial Analysts, combining hands‑on modeling and reporting work with early people‑management responsibility. You'll help bring to life Avid's vision for an always‑on finance function — one where the forecast is a living model, flowing continuously from bookings and renewals through to the P&L and cash, powered by our financial planning software and a single source of truth for revenue and ARR.
