Limelight Software is looking for an experienced Senior FP&A; Consultant to join our growing Professional Services team.

This is a senior, client-facing role for someone who combines solid financial modeling expertise with the ability to lead FP&A; implementations. You will work directly with CFOs, Controllers, and Finance leaders to replace spreadsheet-heavy processes with scalable models for planning, forecasting, workforce planning, and management reporting.

About Limelight
Limelight is a modern FP&A; platform built for mid-market finance teams. Our software connects financial and operational data in one place, helping organizations automate budgeting, forecasting, reporting, workforce planning, and financial analysis.

We combine powerful financial modeling technology with hands‑on FP&A; expertise to help customers modernize how Finance operates and make better decisions.

The Role
Reporting to the Manager of Professional Services, you will lead the financial design and delivery of customer implementations.

You will be responsible for understanding each customer’s business, translating complex finance requirements into well‑structured models, and configuring those models within Limelight. You will also advise customers on how to improve their existing planning and reporting processes—not simply recreate their spreadsheets in a new system.
