Company Overview :

Lightspeed is a leading provider of cloud-based software for dealerships and Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs), serving the Powersport, Marine, RV, Trailer, Outdoor Power Equipment, and Golf Cart industries. Lightspeed's Dealer Management Solution (DMS) enables dealerships to optimize their end-to-end business operations, including sales, parts, service, rentals, accounting, and Customer Relationship Management (CRM). When implemented into their daily operations, Lightspeed helps dealers increase their profitability by selling more units, service, and parts, all while creating a more streamlined experience for customers. For nearly 40 years, Lightspeed has been empowering 4,500+ dealers across North America with the tools and technology they need to manage their dealerships.

In partnership with functional leaders, this position will make recommendations that inform strategic decision-making.

  • Partner with budget owners to identify cost-saving opportunities and improve spend efficiency.
  • Develop and maintain spend tracking tools and dashboards.
  • Headcount Planning & Workforce Analytics
  • Support workforce planning, including hiring forecasts, attrition modeling, and labor cost analysis.

  • Collaborate with HR and department leads to align headcount plans with strategic goals.
  • Maintain headcount models and provide insights on organizational structure and capacity.
  • Planning & Forecasting
  • Lead the operating expense and headcount components of the annual budget and quarterly forecasts.

  • Maintain and enhance planning processes and tools to improve accuracy and scalability.
  • Ensure alignment between financial forecasts and operational plans.
  • Business Partnership
  • Serve as a trusted advisor to department leaders, providing financial guidance and performance insights.

  • Collaborate cross-functionally aligning financial insights with operational execution.
  • Strategic Projects & Ad Hoc Analysis
  • Lead cross-functional financial analyses to support strategic initiatives.

  • Build dynamic models to evaluate business scenarios, investment opportunities, and long-range planning.
  • What you should have :

    Qualifications :

  • 3-5 years of experience in FP&A, investment banking, management consulting, or strategic finance, ideally in a SaaS or high-growth tech environment.
  • Strong financial modeling and analytical skills; fluency in Excel and financial systems (Anaplan, NetSuite, and PowerBI).
  • Deep understanding of SaaS metrics (ARR, NRR, CAC, LTV, churn, etc.) and 3-statement financial modeling.
  • Bachelor's degree in Finance, Economics, Accounting, or related field; MBA or CFA a plus.
  • A mindset of efficiency and scalability - able to design and implement robust financial processes and systems. Prioritization, proactive problem-solving, and a bias for action are essential to thrive in a fast-paced environment.
  • Strong Business Partnership Skills - collaborative, trustworthy, and able to build strong relationships with operational leaders.
  • Strategic Influence - able to translate financial insights into strategic decisions and align stakeholders.
  • Exceptional Communication Skills - able to simplify complex financial concepts and craft clear narratives that provide commentary on performance and strategy.
  • Inclusion and Diversity at Lightspeed :

    At Lightspeed, we celebrate the uniqueness of every individual and encourage diverse perspectives. We believe that inclusion drives innovation and fosters meaningful connections. We are committed to building an environment where everyone feels valued and empowered to make an impact.
