What’s the ceiling for fp&a positions assuming non-csuite?
Have a friend who is a director in fp&a.
His salary is 175k + 10 to 25k bonus
It all depends on the company. Some positions are glorified internal accountants where you do nearly the same thing every day/week.
Depends how close you are to strategy and new projects.
IMO corporate development, strategy, and project management are more prestigious and interesting. FP&A is a true cost center and doesn’t contribute much to growth.
Agreed - People in most Front Office roles typically have revenue generating capability
Those who don’t or people/groups who typically increase costs are often classified as Back Office, usually first to be axed during downsizing as well, so usually less job stability for people in these teams
