Associate Director – FP&A Treasury Lead

Grant Thornton is building a world-class Finance & Accounting organization to power decisions, performance, and growth across an increasingly global business. As Associate Director, FP&A Treasury Lead, you will drive cash, capital, and funding planning within FP&A – working closely with the Treasurer, with clear alignment between FP&A and Treasury responsibilitiesto ensure the firm’s budget and forecasts are supported by a clear view of liquidity and the balance sheet.

You will partner with the Head of FP&A on consolidated budgeting and forecasts, extending the P&L view into an integrated cash flow and balance sheet outlook. Together with Treasury and FP&A, you will provide the funding, debt capacity, and liquidity analysis behind the firm’s long-range plan, capital allocation, growth investments, and acquisitions.

This is a high-visibility, highly analytical role with direct exposure to the CFO, the Head of FP&A, the Treasurer, and New Mountain Capital. The mix of Treasury and FP&A work will shift with the firm’s needs – weighted toward Treasury through the current period of acquisitions and financing activity, and expanding across the broader FP&A agenda as the platform scales.

Liquidity, Capital & Funding Analysis

• Partner with the Treasurer on the firm’s debt capital structure and credit facilities – modeling covenant compliance and headroom, supporting lender reporting, and analyzing amendments, extensions, and refinancings.

Cash Forecasting & FP&A Integration

Strategic Decision Support & Executive Reporting

• Model the cash, capital, and leverage impact of acquisitions, new service lines, pricing changes, and major investments; provide funding and cash flow analysis for deal structuring, diligence, and post-merger integration.

• Support the CFO, Treasurer, and the Head of FP&A with rigorous analysis on capital allocation, debt capacity, and partner and investor return frameworks.
