Job Description

Retail Technology Group is a leader in the Point of Sale Industry providing end-to-end technology solutions for a vast number of major retailers. At RTG, our customer focused approach and strong commitment to Service Excellence has enabled us to be a leader in offering advanced product and support services that are tailored to meet our customer's needs for over 20+ years. Our goal is to provide clients a "single point of sale" as they pursue solutions to meet the challenges faced in delivering technologies that are ever evolving within our industry.

We are currently looking for a Financial Planning & Analysis Manager to be based in our Headquarters in Fenton, Missouri



The Manager, FP&A acts as a strategic architect within Finance & Operations, reporting directly to the CFO/COO. This role is designed for a self-directed individual capable of operating with minimal supervision to bridge the gap between operational data and executive strategy. The Manager will own the financial forecasting engine, drive NetSuite optimization for automated reporting, and ensure absolute data integrity in submissions to our publicly traded parent company.

Success in this role requires a high degree of autonomy; the ideal candidate does not just report numbers but independently identifies risks, validates data with Accounting, and presents solution-oriented insights to the Executive Leadership Team (ELT).

Key Responsibilities

Forecasting, Modeling & Variance Analysis

Dynamic Modeling:

Architect and maintain sophisticated financial models for annual budgeting, rolling 12-month forecasts, and long-range planning (LRP), independent of day-to-day guidance.

Variance Reporting:

Own the Monthly Business Review (MBR) analysis process, rigorously dissecting budget-to-actual variances. You must be able to drill down into the GL to identify whether variances are driven by timing, volume, or rate, and articulate these findings clearly.

Scenario Planning:

Proactively generate "What-If" scenarios (e.g., impact of pricing changes, labor cost fluctuations, or new business units) to assist the ELT in risk management.

Accounting Collaboration

Data Integrity & Governance:

Validate that operational data inputs (Project profitability, Bill of Materials, Labor utilization) align with General Ledger realities. You are the checkpoint to ensure that "Management Numbers" and "Statutory Numbers" reconcile perfectly.

Reporting:

Collaborate closely with the Accounting team to maintain data integrity for internal financial reporting, ensuring a high degree of accuracy and reliability.

NetSuite ERP & Reporting Optimization

System Optimization:

Act as a functional super-user for NetSuite. You will be responsible for building Saved Searches and workflows that automate the extraction of data, reducing the "time-to-insight" for the leadership team.

Parent Company Reporting:

Manage the downstream reporting requirements to Advantech, ensuring that local ERP data maps correctly to global consolidation schemas without manual manipulation.

Dashboarding:

Develop and maintain automated dashboards that provide real-time visibility into KPIs (EBITDA, Gross Margin by Service Type, Utilization), empowering the ELT to make decisions based on live data.

Qualifications & Job Requirements


Essential Job Duties

Technical Competencies

ERP Proficiency:

Strong experience with NetSuite is highly preferred, specifically regarding data extraction, Saved Searches, and financial report writing.

Advanced Excel:

Expert-level mastery is required. Candidates must demonstrate proficiency with complex modeling, Index/Match/XLOOKUP, Pivot Tables, and Power Query/Macros for automating data ingestion.

Visualization:

Proficiency in Power BI, NetSuite Analytics, or similar BI tools is preferred.

Core Competencies

Financial Acumen:

Deep understanding of the three financial statements and how operational changes impact the Balance Sheet and Cash Flow, not just the P&L.

Precision & Rigor:

An obsession with accuracy; the ability to spot data anomalies immediately and trace them to the source.

Strategic Communication:

Ability to translate complex data sets into a concise narrative for the CFO and ELT.


Education and Experience

Education:

Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or related field required.

Experience:

5-7+ years of experience in FP&A, Corporate Finance, or a hybrid Accounting/Finance role.

Autonomy:

Proven track record of working independently in a fast-paced environment. Must demonstrate the ability to self-start projects, manage conflicting deadlines, and deliver "Board-Ready" work with minimal revision required by the CFO.
