Sr. FP&A EPM Analyst – Workday Adaptive Planning

About Slate

At Slate, we’ve got one job: building a vehicle you’ll fall in love with, right here in the USA. We believe that car buyers—not car companies—should call the shots. We like looking at a road, not a screen. We don’t like paying for stuff we don’t need.
We like picking out the stuff we do need. We think dings are badges, not blemishes. But we know not everyone likes what we like. So, we built you a Slate: you make it yours.

Who we are looking for:

Slate is seeking a highly analytical and systems-savvy Senior Corporate FP&A Analyst to lead the development of consolidated financial reporting and dashboarding capabilities in Workday Adaptive Planning.

The ideal candidate brings deep hands-on experience with Adaptive, including building dynamic variance reports, automated dashboards, and multi-dimensional analytics across departments, cost centers, and product lines.

What you get to do:

• Own the development and maintenance of automated dashboards and reports in Workday Adaptive Planning, including BvA (budget vs. actual), forecast tracking, and variance analysis.
• Build multi-dimensional, attribute-level reporting across key business lenses (department, product, channel, etc.).
• Design and standardize consolidated reporting to support executive-level insights and Board reporting.
• Partner with FP&A leadership to gather requirements and translate them into scalable Adaptive solutions.
• Maintain reporting structures, hierarchies, versions, and assumptions to ensure consistency and clarity across all planning tools.
• Assist with financial system data integrations (e.g., NetSuite to Adaptive) and ensure accuracy across platforms.
• Support ongoing improvements in financial planning, reporting processes, and data quality.
• Contribute to monthly and quarterly reporting packages, including insights and analysis.

What you bring to the team: 

• 5+ years of experience in Financial Planning & Analysis, with a strong focus on financial systems and reporting.
• Bachelors Degree in Accounting or Finance, MBA preferred.
• Hands-on experience building dashboards and variance reports in Workday Adaptive Planning is required.
• Strong understanding of financial statements, budgeting, and planning processes.
