Director, FP&A (Hybrid)

Description

The Director, FP&A is a strategic finance leader who owns the financial planning, forecasting, and analysis function for Staccato 2011, LLC, a premium firearms manufacturer scaling across Florence, TX; Pahrump, NV; and a growing remote sales organization. This individual partners directly with the CAO, executive leadership, and ownership to shape company strategy — translating operational and market data into the financial insight that drives decisions on capital investment, pricing, product-line profitability, and long-range growth across our guns, ammunition, small parts, CPO, and CARE businesses. The ideal candidate is a builder: someone who can operate at the board level while also rolling up their sleeves to strengthen the systems, models, and team that support a fast-growing, multi-site manufacturer.

Requirements

Own the company’s end-to-end FP&A strategy, including the annual budget, quarterly forecasts, and 3–5 year long-range strategic plan.

Serve as chief financial advisor to functional and site leaders across Florence and Pahrump, translating operational plans into financial impact and holding business partners accountable to targets.

Lead capital planning and prioritization for manufacturing capacity, equipment, and facility investments to support production growth.

Partner with the CAO/CFO on capital structure, banking and lender relationships, covenant compliance, and potential M&A or strategic investment analysis.

Own multi-entity financial consolidation and reporting across all Staccato locations and business units, ensuring clean intercompany eliminations and consistent reporting standards.

Direct pricing strategy and product/unit-economics analysis across the guns, ammunition, small parts, CPO, and CARE product lines to protect and expand margin.

Build and present the monthly and quarterly board-level reporting package, including performance narrative, risks, and strategic recommendations.

Design and govern the company-wide KPI and OKR framework, ensuring metrics cascade from corporate strategy down to plant and department level.

Own the FP&A systems and tools roadmap (ERP, planning, and BI platforms), driving automation and scalability as headcount and revenue grow.

Lead, hire, and develop the FP&A team — including the FP&A Manager and analysts — building a high-performing function that scales with the business.

Represent Finance in executive leadership meetings and act as a key strategic thought partner to the CAO and broader leadership team.

In addition to general team member expectations, this role explicitly requires the following:

Bachelor’s degree in finance, accounting, or a related field; MBA or CPA strongly preferred.

10+ years of progressive FP&A or corporate finance experience, including 3+ years leading FP&A at a director level or above, with people-leadership experience over managers and analysts.

Demonstrated success owning FP&A for a manufacturing, industrial, or consumer products company; experience in firearms, defense, or another regulated industry is a strong plus.

Track record managing financial planning across multiple entities, locations, or business units.

Experience preparing and presenting directly to a Board of Directors, ownership group, lenders, or investors.

Advanced financial modeling, forecasting, and capital-planning expertise; strong command of Excel and ERP systems (e.g., NetSuite, SAP, Oracle), with BI tool fluency (Power BI or Tableau) preferred.

Strong executive presence with the ability to influence C-suite and ownership decisions using data-driven insight.

Proven ability to build, scale, and lead a finance team through a period of company growth.

High degree of business acumen, discretion, and sound judgment given exposure to sensitive company and competitive information.
