Finance Business Partner II

Job Overview:

Join AvidXchange as a Finance Business Partner II supporting our Operations organization. In this role, you will partner closely with senior operations leaders to drive financial discipline, operational efficiency, and scalable growth across core business functions. You will provide insight into cost drivers, capacity planning, productivity, and margin performance—helping operations teams make informed, data-driven decisions.

This role is ideal for a finance professional who thrives in execution-heavy environments, understands how financial outcomes are driven by operational inputs, and enjoys translating complex data into clear guidance that improves performance at scale.

What You'll Do:

Operations Partnership & Decision Support:
Serve as the primary finance partner to senior operations leaders, advising on staffing models, capacity planning, productivity, and cost optimization. Support decisions related to scaling teams, balancing service levels, and improving unit economics.

Planning, Forecasting & Capacity Modeling:
Own the annual budget and rolling forecast processes for the Operations organization, incorporating headcount, workload, productivity assumptions, and efficiency initiatives to ensure plans are both financially sound and operationally executable.

Operational Investment & ROI Analysis:
Evaluate investments tied to operational improvements, automation, tooling, and process changes. Apply ROI methodologies such as:

• Payback Period Analysis

• Net Present Value (NPV)

• Internal Rate of Return (IRR)

• Return on Invested Capital (ROIC)

• Cost of Ownership vs. Operational Value Delivered

Cost Structure & Efficiency Management:
Analyze cost drivers across operations, identifying opportunities to improve margins, reduce friction, and increase throughput without sacrificing service quality.

Performance Insights & Reporting:
Translate operational KPIs—such as volume, cycle time, utilization, and productivity—into actionable financial insights using Tableau, Power BI, and SQL. Deliver clear narratives that connect operational performance to financial outcomes.

Corporate & Long-Range Modeling:
Support the evolution of AvidXchange’s long-range planning model by integrating operational metrics, scaling assumptions, and cost frameworks that reflect how the business grows and operates over time.

What We're Looking For:

Experience:
7+ years in FP&A or Finance Business Partnering, with a strong background in technology or payments industries.

Allocations Modeling:
Experience with allocations modeling tied to SEC reporting categories and Technology Cost of Ownership frameworks.

Analytical Skills:
Advanced financial modeling skills with experience building full P&Ls and scenario analyses.

Communication:
Exceptional ability to synthesize complex financial data and present insights to senior executives and cross-functional stakeholders.

Tools & Systems:
Proficiency in Adaptive Insights (preferred), Anaplan, Workday, Tableau, Power BI, and SQL.
