Financial Planning & Analysis Lead

Health care is all about conversations, with over 2B spoken conversations each year between patients and their care teams in just the United States. However, people forget up to 80% of those conversations, leading to worse patient outcomes. And doctors are burning out writing notes in their EMRs instead of focusing on their patients. That’s where Abridge comes in — our audio-based standalone and integrated solutions record and summarize medical conversations, anywhere care happens.

The Role

As our first Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A) Lead, you’ll have a unique opportunity to play a pivotal part in our financial management and strategic planning process.

The role will be integral in driving our company's financial health and visibility, and offers a chance to work at the cutting edge of AI technology and healthcare. We are seeking an individual who is passionate about their work, eager to engage in dynamic financial planning, and ready to contribute significantly to our company's success. 

What You’ll Do

• Develop comprehensive financial plans and forecasts aligned with our strategic objectives.

• Implement scalable practices in invoicing and revenue recognition, partnering with SVP Finance to implement and document accounting policies.

• Perform research and benchmarking studies across healthcare industry segments to supply the leadership team with key competitive insights. 

• Help our team foster strong relationships with investors, board members, and other stakeholders, communicating financial strategies and insights effectively.

• Manage financial planning processes, including budgeting and variance analyses.

• Collaborate with various departments to provide real-time insights into financial performance.

• Lead efforts to enhance financial processes and systems for increased accuracy and efficiency. 

What You’ll Bring

• 3-5 years of experience in Transaction Services, Investment Banking,  Management Consulting or a closely related field with experience in valuation, financial modeling, and deal diligence. 

• Proficient in financial analysis, with strong analytical skills and data interpretation abilities.  

• SQL and previous experience with planning tools is a plus, not a requirement.

• Experience researching and summarizing complex financial data. 

• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills for effective stakeholder engagement.

• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Economics, Business Administration, or a related field. 

• A willingness to engage in new tools, and desire to build internal products in Finance.

We value people who want to learn new things, and we know that great team members might not perfectly match a job description. If you’re interested in the role but aren’t sure whether or not you’re a good fit, we’d still like to hear from you.

Life at Abridge

At Abridge, we’re driven by our mission to bring understanding and follow-through to every medical conversation. Our culture is founded on doing things the “inverse” way in a legacy system—focusing on patients, instead of the system; focusing on outcomes, instead of billing; and focusing on the end-user experience, instead of a hospital administrator's mandate.

Abridgers are engineers, scientists, designers, and health policy experts from a diverse set of backgrounds—an experiment in alchemy that helps us transform an industry dominated by EHRs and enterprise into a consumer-driven experience, one recording at a time. We believe in strong ideas, loosely held, and place a high premium on a growth mindset. We push each other to grow and expose each other to the latest in our respective fields. Whether it’s holding a PhD-level deep dive into understanding fairness and underlying bias in machine learning models, debating the merits of a Scandinavian design philosophy in our UI/UX, or writing responses for Medicare rules to influence U.S. health policy, we prioritize sharing our findings across the team and helping each other be successful.

Diversity & Inclusion

Abridge is an equal opportunity employer. Diversity and inclusion is at the core of what we do. We actively welcome applicants from all backgrounds (including but not limited to race, gender, educational background, and sexual orientation).
