At Gong, you will join a company built on innovative products, ambitious goals, and passionate people. We are shaping the future of revenue intelligence and we want people who are excited to build what comes next. You will work with a team that dreams big, moves fast, and cares deeply about the craft and about each other. Here, transparency and trust are core to how we operate, and every person has the opportunity to make a visible impact. If you want to grow, stretch, and do work that truly matters, Gong is the place to do the best work of your career.

Gong is building the intelligence layer that powers how revenue organizations understand their business. As a company at the intersection of AI and enterprise SaaS — and actively transitioning from pure subscription to consumption-based pricing — the financial complexity is increasing and decidedly intriguing. The data is rich, the business model is evolving, and the questions don't have easy answers yet.

This role is for someone who finds that energizing.

As Sr. Manager, Corporate FP&A, you will sit at the center of how Gong understands its own financial performance. You will own the analytical work that informs decisions made by the CFO and executive team — not as a support function, but as a real thought partner. If you've spent time in investment banking, consulting, or private equity and want to apply that rigor to directly impact the direction and growth of a fast scaling company, this is the seat.

What you'll do

• Own the company's consolidated financial model and P&L narrative — not just maintaining it, but constantly challenging it. What assumptions are embedded that haven't been revisited? What does the data suggest that the model doesn't yet reflect?

• Drive ARR forecasting and revenue analytics in close partnership with GTM Strategy — understanding not just what the numbers say, but what is driving them at the cohort, segment, and product level

• As Gong expands into consumption-based pricing for AI features, build and own the financial framework for modeling hybrid revenue — subscription ARR alongside usage-based and credit-based revenue streams

• Lead scenario modeling and strategic analysis that informs resource allocation decisions at the executive level — the kind of work where intellectual rigor and sound judgment matter as much as technical execution

• Co-lead the monthly close review, quarterly forecast cycle, and annual planning process — bringing a point of view to each, not just a package

• Drive forecast accuracy improvement over time: identify where and why the model misses, develop better leading indicators, and systematically close the gap

• Support the preparation of CFO-level reporting and management presentations, including monthly financial reviews and QBR materials prepared for leadership — with the expectation that you can tell the story behind the numbers, not just produce the slides

What we're looking for

The profile: You are the person who, when handed a dataset, immediately asks what else should be in it, what the outliers mean, and what the trend looks like three levels down. You have a natural intolerance for surface-level explanations and a habit of asking "what am I not seeing?" before you sign off on any analysis. You've built models under pressure, defended them in rooms full of skeptics, and used the experience to build better ones next time.

Experience

• 8+ years in investment banking, private equity, strategy consulting, equity research, or high-growth company FP&A — with a track record of owning complex financial analysis end-to-end, not just supporting it

• Deep command of enterprise SaaS metrics: ARR, NDR, CAC payback, LTV/CAC, cohort retention, gross margin by product line — you don't need to look these up, and you understand the nuances, edge cases, and common misinterpretations behind each

• Bonus: experience modeling consumption or usage-based revenue — understanding how utilization curves, credit burn rates, and variable COGS interact with a subscription base is a real differentiator here

• Advanced financial modeling skills; you build models that other people can audit, stress-test, and trust

• Experience with financial planning tools (Pigment, Adaptive, Anaplan) and ERP/CRM systems; comfortable working across systems and knowing their limitations

• Prior exposure to high-growth or pre-IPO environments where the play
