As a Financial Planning & Analysis Manager, you'll lead budgeting and forecasting, develop financial models, produce reports, and support broader financial tasks, while collaborating on data insights for strategic decisions.
Financial Planning & Analysis Manager
About the Role
We are seeking an FP&A Manager with a strong analytical and technical background to join our Finance team. In this role, you'll report directly to the Head of Finance and play a key part in building Lyrebird's financial infrastructure and insights engine.
While your core mandate is FP&A, you must also be open to supporting broader finance activities that fall outside traditional FP&A - from operations to systems work - as we’re a small and fast-growing team where everyone pitches in.
About us
Lyrebird Health is transforming the quality and accessibility of healthcare by automating clinicians' most time consuming tasks. Thousands of clinicians use Lyrebird across many disciplines — and this number is increasing every day.
These clinicians trust us to deliver a fast, reliable, and secure experience, and we value this more than anything. We want to earn trust while continuing to amaze our users.
FP&A Core
- Lead monthly, quarterly, and annual budgeting and forecasting cycles
- Develop and maintain robust financial models to support decision-making
- Build and manage management reporting packages and board materials
- Partner cross-functionally (especially GTM, product, and ops) to forecast and track key performance metrics
Broader Finance Support
- Contribute flexibly to other areas of finance as needed — including ops, systems, and admin tasks
- Assist with financial close processes and liaise with accounting partners
- Support billing, revenue recognition, and cashflow management
- Help define and improve internal finance policies, controls, and workflows
Data & Insights
- Write queries and build dashboards to surface financial and operational insights (e.g. revenue by cohort, CAC payback, churn analysis)
- Work closely with our data and product teams to improve data quality and definitions
- Translate raw data into actionable narratives for stakeholders across the company
Strategic Initiatives
- Support ad hoc analyses such as pricing, capital planning, and scenario modeling
- Contribute to fundraising and investor reporting as needed
- Identify opportunities to improve how finance operates at scale
Requirements
- 4–5 years of experience in FP&A, investment banking, consulting, or strategic finance roles (experience at a start-up or tech company is a plus)
- Strong modeling and forecasting skills
- Excellent analytical and problem-solving abilities
- Advanced Excel/Google Sheets skills
- Experience querying databases (e.g. SQL, Snowflake) and building dashboards (e.g. Sigma, Looker, Tableau)
- A systems thinker: able to zoom out strategically and zoom in tactically
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced, ambiguous environment with evolving needs
- Collaborative and low-ego — excited to roll up your sleeves and work across functions
- Passion for Lyrebird’s mission and improving healthcare through technology
Nice to Have
- Exposure to SaaS metrics and cohort analysis
- Familiarity with accounting principles (revenue recognition, accruals, etc.)
- Experience working with product-led growth or B2B SaaS businesses
- Previous exposure to Stripe, Chargebee, or other billing platforms
We're transforming the future of healthcare:
All that's missing is you.

What you need to know about the Melbourne Tech Scene
Home to 650 biotech companies, 10 major research institutes and nine universities, Melbourne is among one of the top cities for biotech. In fact, some of the greatest medical advancements were conceptualized and developed here, including Symex Lab's "lab-on-a-chip" solution that monitors hormones to predict ovulation for conception, and Denteric's vaccine for periodontal gum disease. Yet, the thousands of people working in the city's healthtech sector are just getting started, to say nothing of the tech advancements across all other sectors.
