Position Summary & Responsibilities

The Lead for Financial Planning & Analysis at Logos will report to the Vice President of Corporate Development and Operations and will be a key leader in our finance and business planning functions. This is a crucial role for a professional who will have technical ownership of our financial models, systems, and internal planning. The successful candidate will be responsible for translating complex technical milestones and heavy capital expenditures into dynamic, actionable strategies, ensuring our financial framework aligns with our long-term goals and operational needs.

While a Corporate Development counterpart handles external fundraising and investor relations, this role requires a hands-on approach and a deep focus on the internal mechanics of our numbers. The ideal candidate will be adept at building and maintaining robust financial models from scratch, keeping our financial metrics investment-ready, and ensuring leadership and the board have absolute clarity and data as we scale. You will be instrumental in developing our back-end financial engine, providing critical insights to the leadership team, and ensuring the overall financial health of the company.

The full responsibilities include:
  • Build, scale, and stress-test sophisticated, multi-year financial models and predictive scenario analyses from scratch.

  • Lead the annual budgeting process and execute agile rolling forecasts that accurately capture fast-moving technical and operational shifts.

  • Provide the financial engine for upcoming capital raises by keeping models, metrics, and data rooms in a permanent state of investment-grade diligence.

  • Craft high-impact financial narratives, variance reports, and strategic decks that give the leadership team and board an unobstructed view of our trajectory.

  • Partner directly with engineering and business operations teams to map out complex unit economics, project lifecycles, and capital investments.

  • Implement and optimize modern ERP and FP&A software to automate tracking and build a streamlined internal reporting engine.

Basic Qualifications
  • 7+ years of experience in corporate finance, FP&A, or investment banking.

  • Mastery-level financial modeling skills, with a proven ability to build complex models from the ground up.

  • A hands-on mindset - thrives on the tactical execution of building and managing their own models.

  • High proficiency with modern ERP ecosystems and cloud-based FP&A data tools.

  • Exceptional ability to strip away spreadsheet noise and deliver crystal-clear financial insights to executive decision-makers.

  • High professional flexibility - the agility to pivot strategic messaging as operational timelines shift, and a comfort with ambiguity.

 
Preferred Qualifications
  • Experience in the aerospace, telecommunications, or technology sectors.

  • Experience with Series A + funding rounds and preparing for subsequent fundraising.

  • Experience with government contracting or related financial regulations.
