Senior Manager, FP&A

About The Role:

Morning Consult is seeking a Senior Manager, FP&A to serve as a key finance partner to our Go-to-Market organization. This role owns the accuracy, automation, and presentation of GTM-facing dashboards and reporting, and provides decision support directly to GTM leadership — translating financial data into insights that inform their day-to-day and strategic decisions.

This is a highly visible role reporting to the Senior Director, FP&A — who in turn reports to the CFO — with a clear path to owning more of the GTM finance relationship as you prove impact. This role does not carry formal people leadership responsibilities today, but is expected to take on direct management of two GTM-focused analysts over an anticipated 6-9 month ramp, as trust and stakeholder relationships are established. There is room for growth in scope as the FP&A function’s footprint expands. Success requires someone who can move fluidly between hands-on dashboard/model work and higher-level financial storytelling and advisory support for Commercial leaders.

The FP&A Team at Morning Consult:

FP&A sits within Morning Consult's finance organization and is the analytical backbone connecting company strategy to day-to-day decision-making. The team partners closely with the CFO, Commercial, and Operations leadership to build forecasts, financial models, and reporting that guide how Morning Consult invests, plans, and grows. The team has built a strong reporting foundation over the past year and is now focused on scaling it — sharper automation, better visual presentation, and deeper business partnership.

About You and What You've Done:
