The posting

Headquartered in Silicon Valley, California, Archer is a leader in the next-gen aerospace sector building an end-to-end advanced air mobility platform that delivers air taxis, unmanned aircraft systems (“UAS”), aviation-related physical artificial intelligence (“AI”) solutions, and other technologies to customers worldwide across the commercial aerospace and defense sectors.

Our sights are set high and our problems are hard, and we believe that diversity in the workplace is what makes us smarter, drives better insights, and will ultimately lift us all to success. We are dedicated to cultivating an equitable and inclusive environment that embraces our differences, and supports and celebrates all of our team members.

Archer is seeking an SVP of Finance to serve as a senior business partner to the CFO and executive leadership team. This is a high-impact role that will own the full breadth of financial planning, strategic analysis, commercial finance, and business unit finance for Archer. The right candidate is an analytically rigorous, commercially minded finance leader who thrives in fast-moving, high-growth environments and can translate complex financial dynamics into clear, actionable insight for the business.

Financial Planning & Analysis

  • Own Archer’s annual operating plan, long-range financial model, and quarterly forecasting process end-to-end
  • Drive budget discipline and accountability across all functions through rigorous variance analysis and management reporting
  • Develop and maintain the company’s integrated financial model, including P&L, cash flow, and balance sheet projections
  • Lead monthly and quarterly reporting for leadership, the Board, and the Audit Committee
  • Produce high-quality Board and investor materials that clearly communicate financial performance and forward outlook

Strategic Finance

  • Lead financial analysis and modeling for strategic initiatives, including M&A, joint ventures, and new market entry
  • Serve as a key thought partner to the CFO on capital allocation, financing strategy, and corporate financial strategy
  • Support investor relations with financial narratives and earnings preparation
  • Evaluate and frame trade-offs on major investment decisions across the business
  • Monitor competitive and industry financial benchmarks to inform strategic positioning

Commercial & Business Unit Finance

  • Serve as the embedded finance partner to Archer’s commercial, operational and product development business units
  • Build and maintain unit economics models, contribution margin frameworks, and route-level profitability analyses for Archer’s businesses
  • Partner with commercial and operations leadership to develop pricing frameworks, revenue models, and go-to-market financial plans
  • Drive accountability for business unit P&Ls and provide financial leadership on key operating decisions
  • Support the development of financial reporting infrastructure to enable data-driven decision making at the business unit level

Qualifications:

  • 12+ years of progressive finance experience, with significant leadership responsibility in FP&A, strategic finance, or a related function
  • Prior experience at a high-growth technology, aerospace, or mobility company strongly preferred; investment banking, private equity, or management consulting background welcome
  • Exceptional financial modeling skills and intellectual rigor — you build models from first principles and know how to stress-test assumptions
  • Strong business partnering instincts; able to earn trust across engineering, operations, commercial, and executive teams
  • Experience presenting to executive team and Boards of Directors
  • Demonstrated ability to build and lead high-performing finance teams in fast-paced environments
  • Track record of operating effectively through ambiguity and scaling finance infrastructure in a rapidly evolving organization
  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, Accounting, Engineering or related field required; MBA or CPA a plus

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
