About the Role

As the Director of FP&A for Employer Solutions, you will be the strategic financial lead for Lyra’s core business engine. This is a high-visibility leadership role that requires a sophisticated balance of operational rigor and long-term strategic vision. You will act as the primary financial architect for our employer-facing vertical, ensuring that our growth is both rapid and sustainable.

This role requires a master of matrixed collaboration. You will sit at the center of a specialized Finance ecosystem, working closely with the Corporate, Clinical Ops, and Health Plan/Health Systems FP&A teams to ensure a unified view of the business. You will be responsible for translating complex departmental data into a cohesive financial narrative that drives executive decision-making.

Responsibilities

Vertical Finance Lead & Strategic Partnership

Commercial Co-Pilot: Serve as the lead financial advisor to the Employer Solutions leadership team, providing the "check and balance" on commercial deal structures, pricing, and margin profiles. Hold detailed understanding and accountability for all aspects of P&L forecast.

Matrixed Integration: Act as the connective tissue between Employer Solutions and other FP&A teams (Clinical Ops, Health Plans, Corporate) to ensure cost-to-serve models and revenue forecasts are integrated and accurate.

Board & Investor Relations: Partner with the VP of Finance to translate vertical performance into high-level narratives for Board materials, investor decks, and quarterly guidance.

Operational Rigor & Performance Management

P&L Ownership: Drive the monthly, quarterly, and annual planning cycles for the vertical, providing deep-dive variance analysis that goes beyond the "what" to explain the "why."

Advanced Scenario Modeling: Build and maintain sophisticated models to forecast the impact of new product tiers, employer segment shifts, and international expansion within the vertical.

KPI Architecture: Develop and monitor vertical-specific metrics (e.g., CAC, LTV, Gross Margin by Segment) that provide early signals for risks and opportunities.

Operating Efficiency: Drive analysis and reviews to assess reasonableness and necessity of cost basis to support business performance.

Leadership & Infrastructure

Team Evolution: Build, mentor, and scale a world-class team of finance professionals, fostering a culture of "business-first" financial partnership.

Systems & Scalability: Collaborate with the broader Finance organization to implement AI-driven tools and automated reporting processes that eliminate manual work and increase forecast accuracy.

M&A & Integration: Support business development and M&A activity, focusing on the seamless financial integration of new employer-facing capabilities or portfolios.

Qualifications

Education: Bachelor’s Degree in Finance, Accounting, or a quantitative field; MBA, CPA, or CFA preferred.

Experience: 10+ years in corporate finance, with prior experience as a Business Unit Finance Lead within a high-growth SaaS or Healthcare company.

Collaborative DNA: Proven ability to navigate a matrixed organization and influence stakeholders across disparate finance and operations teams.

Technical Mastery: Expert-level financial modeling and deep experience with modern FP&A stacks (e.g., Pigment, Anaplan, or NetSuite).

Leadership: 5+ years of experience managing high-performing teams and a track record of developing future finance leaders.

Communication: Proven ability to influence executive-level stakeholders and "translate" complex financial data into a compelling narrative for non-finance leaders.
