Position Description

The Corporate Finance Manager, Enterprise Functions / SG&A will serve as the company’s central financial authority for all corporate SG&A costs, reporting directly to the VP of Corporate Finance. This role owns the consolidation, planning, and performance analysis of SG&A across every enterprise function—Human Resources, Information Technology, Legal, Marketing, and Executive leadership—delivering the VP of Corporate Finance and senior leadership a clear, integrated view of total corporate overhead and its trajectory.

A defining dimension of this role is partnering with the VP of Corporate Finance to rigorously analyze investments and model Voyager’s pathway to AEBITDA profitability. Voyager has set a clear milestone: exit Q4 2027 AEBITDA positive. This manager will build the financial frameworks that connect SG&A leverage to revenue growth and margin expansion, model investment sequencing decisions, and provide the VP of Corporate Finance and executive team with the visibility they need to make high-confidence decisions—and communicate progress credibly to the Board and investors.

This role also owns the Functional Cost capability within Voyager’s "One Voyager" Vena model—the company’s rebuilt enterprise planning infrastructure—and is expected to actively leverage AI tools, including Claude, to accelerate analysis, automate routine deliverables, and continuously raise the quality and speed of financial insight. The ideal candidate is a disciplined, forward-leaning analyst who thrives in a high-growth environment and earns the confidence of senior executives through credibility, clarity, and a genuine understanding of the business.

Key Responsibilities

SG&A Financial Planning, Consolidation & Executive Partnering

• Own the end-to-end consolidation and planning cycle for all corporate SG&A—accountable for accuracy and integrity from annual budget and quarterly reforecast through long-range plan; partner with functional finance and Accounting on allocations, accruals, and period-end close.
• Maintain the Functional Cost capability within Voyager’s "One Voyager" Vena model, building and managing SG&A dimensions so functional spend flows directly into the enterprise model without a manual translation step.
• Own Functional Cost Performance Management—serve as the strategic financial partner to enterprise function leaders, accountable for actionable spend visibility within 2 business days of close and variance explanations within 5 days; own the planning conversation and executive relationships while coordinating reporting execution with the finance analyst team.

Pathway to Profitability & Investment Analysis

• Build and maintain financial models connecting SG&A leverage, revenue growth, and gross margin expansion into a management-actionable view of Voyager’s trajectory to AEBITDA positive at exit of Q4 2027—including scenario analyses that quantify the cost of each investment decision in profitability timing.
• Evaluate all proposed enterprise function investments—building ROI models and business cases that frame each decision as accretive or dilutive to the profitability timeline, with clear tradeoff analysis on capability gained vs. cost incurred.
• Track SG&A as a percentage of revenue, benchmark against comparable companies, and prepare Board- and investor-ready analyses on SG&A trends and profitability progress feeding BOD packages, IR preparation, and external guidance.

AI-Driven Insight & Process Improvement

• Actively leverage Claude and AI tools across the analysis cycle—accelerating research, drafting variance commentary and executive narratives for review, and stress-testing model assumptions; identify new use cases that advance Voyager’s AI roadmap and build toward greater autonomy in routine finance workflows.
• Identify and drive process improvements across SG&A financial planning, reporting, and period-end close—reducing manual effort, improving cycle speed, and building data reliability as Voyager scales.
• Partner with the analytics and technology team to define SG&A and functional cost data products for the enterprise data platform, ensuring the financial dimensions this role owns in Vena flow cleanly into self-service reporting tools and dashboards for function leaders.

Qualifications

Required

• Bachelor’s degree in finance, Accounting, Business Administration, or related field.
• 8+ years of progressive FP&A or corporate finance experience with direct ownership of corporate SG&A or enterprise function budgeting, forecasting, and financial reporting—own the number, not just the spreadsheet.
• Hands-on Vena proficiency (or a directly comparable EPM/CPM platform)—model-building, dimension management, and consolidation experience required; data-entry familiarity alone is not sufficient.
• Demonstrated, active use of AI tools—including Claude or comparable large language models—to accelerate financial analysis, draft and improve deliverables, and elevate the quality and speed of insight.
• Proven ability to build complex, multi-driver financial models connecting functional cost detail to enterprise-level insight, including investment analysis, ROI modeling, payback analysis, and scenario planning.
• Strong GAAP foundation with depth in income statement and SG&A cost structure dynamics; demonstrated ability to own consolidated financial views across multiple cost centers with full accountability for accuracy and integrity.
• Exceptional communication and executive presentation skills—proven ability to translate financial complexity into clear, decision-ready narrative for VP-level and executive audiences, including BOD and investor-facing deliverables.

Preferred

• Experience at a high-growth, pre-profitability, or recently public technology or defense company, with direct exposure to EBITDA bridge analysis, burn rate management, and investor- or Board-facing financial deliverables.
• Dynamic executive business partnering skills—building trusted relationships with C-suite and VP-level leaders, influencing decisions without direct authority, and communicating with credibility and poise under scrutiny.
• Experience supporting external guidance processes—BOD reporting packages, IR preparation, or earnings materials.
• Comfort operating in ambiguity; proven ability to impose structure, prioritize independently, and deliver on deadline in a rapidly evolving environment.
• MBA, CPA, or CMA.
• Advanced proficiency in NetSuite or comparable ERP system.
• Familiarity with the defense, aerospace, or national security industry, including FAR Part 31 cost principles and indirect cost structures.
