The posting

Who We Are: Our story began in 2011 when a group of office workers at a major logistics company in Chicago had a lunch problem. Nearby options were limited, and the team was spending too much time and money traveling to their favorite restaurants. They had an idea: bring Chicago’s local restaurant culture inside the office to sell food. It was an immediate hit. When they discovered people from other companies sneaking into their office, they knew they were on to something.

Fooda pioneered the concept of rotating popup restaurants inside offices. Today, we operate in 60 cities with over 100 million meals served and continue to grow rapidly.

Powered by technology and a network of 1500+ restaurants, we feed hungry people at work through a platform of unique food programs located within companies, office buildings, hospitals, schools, distribution centers, and more. At Fooda, we believe a workplace food program should be something employees love and look forward to every day.

Who We Are Looking For: Fooda is seeking a Manager of FP&A to be the primary owner of the company’s financial planning and analysis function. This is a hands-on role for someone who thrives on owning the work directly, with a clear path to grow as the team expands around you.

Fooda is entering its next phase of growth, requiring more sophisticated financial planning, enhanced visibility into unit economics, and stronger capital management. This role will build on a solid financial foundation to scale FP&A capabilities, introduce greater rigor, and strengthen financial control across the business. The role will be based in Chicago and is expected to be in office 3 days per week.

What You Will Be Doing:

Financial Planning and Analysis:

  • Responsible for building and maintaining financial models: budgets, forecasts, reforecasts, and long-range plans.
  • Own variance analysis end-to-end, including data, drivers, narrative, and presentation to leadership.
  • Develop and maintain KPI dashboards and monthly reporting packages.
  • Build scenario and sensitivity models to support business decisions and capital planning.

Strategic Finance and Business Partnership:

  • Serve as the primary analytical partner to functional leaders, translating financials into business insights
  • Prepare executive and board-level materials, including analysis and supporting commentary
  • Partner with Accounting to ensure accurate and timely close reporting and clean data flows into FP&A outputs
  • Proactively identify trends, risks, and opportunities in the P&L and unit economics

Infrastructure and Process Ownership:

  • Own cash flow forecasting and liquidity tracking
  • Responsible for lender compliance reporting and capital management processes
  • Improve FP&A workflows, templates, and reporting infrastructure to support a growing, multi-market business
  • Evaluate and implement FP&A tools or BI enhancements that improve visibility and reduce manual work

What You Should Already Have:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or related field (MBA or CPA a plus)
  • 5–8+ years of FP&A, corporate finance, investment banking, or related experience, with increasing scope and responsibility
  • Experience in a high-growth, venture-backed, or fast-paced operating environment
  • Background in a multi-unit or high-transaction business (e.g., marketplaces, logistics, food service, retail) preferred.
  • Advanced financial modeling skills and high proficiency in Excel (experience with FP&A or BI tools a plus).
  • Familiarity with AI and automation tools as they apply to financial planning, modeling, and reporting workflows.
  • Strong understanding of financial statements, with the ability to connect P&L performance to underlying business drivers and unit economics.
  • Proven ownership of budgeting, forecasting, and long-range planning processes.
  • Experience working with lender relationships, debt compliance, and/or capital planning.
  • Strong communication skills, with experience presenting to senior leadership, board members, or investors.
  • Demonstrated ability to operate effectively in a player-coach capacity.

Why Fooda: At Fooda, we believe in creating an environment where our people can thrive. We are committed to fostering a culture of innovation, collaboration, and professional growth. Our team members enjoy unique perks, including:

  • A unique business model at the intersection of food, logistics, and workplace experience, with strong traction across major U.S. markets

  • Opportunity to build and shape the FP&A function at a growing, venture-backed company
  • Hands-on involvement in strategic finance, capital planning, and operational decision-making
  • Equity opportunities
  • A fun, collaborative work environment – plus discounted meals from top local restaurants

What We’ll Hook You Up With:

  • Competitive market salary and stock options based on experience
  • Comprehensive health, dental and vision insurance plans
  • 401k retirement plan with Company match
  • Paid maternity and parental leave benefits
  • Flexible spending accounts
  • ​​Company-issued laptop
