    Job description

    About Redwood Materials

    Redwood Materials was founded in 2017 by JB Straubel, co-founder and former CTO of Tesla, on a simple but radical idea: the critical minerals powering the energy transition already exist. They just need to come back. Today Redwood is the largest lithium-ion battery recycler in North America — recovering, refining, and redeploying critical minerals from end-of-life batteries back into the supply chain. On the energy side, Redwood has deployed the largest second-life battery project in the world, delivering power to AI data centers in months rather than years using proprietary energy architecture engineered entirely in-house. The company is profitable, the market it operates in is projected to grow 20 to 50 times over the next decade, and Redwood is the only company with the supply chain, the technology, and the operational scale to lead it.

    Position Summary:

    The Senior Manager, Financial Planning & Analysis is a high-visibility corporate finance role responsible for leading Redwood’s enterprise-wide planning, forecasting, and strategic financial analysis. This role partners directly with business unit leaders and the executive team to translate operational activity into financial insight, drive the annual operating plan and re-forecast cycles, and deliver decision-ready reporting to senior leadership and the board. The position is responsible for building and maintaining the consolidated corporate financial model and for developing the FP&A infrastructure needed to support a fast-growing, multi-site manufacturing company. This role is primarily performed in an office environment, with 3–4 days per week onsite at Redwood Material’s San Francisco location.

    Essential Duties and Responsibilities

    Planning & Forecasting

    • Own Redwood’s annual operating plan (AOP) process, coordinating inputs across business units, manufacturing operations, and G&A functions to produce a unified, board-ready financial plan
    • Lead quarterly and monthly re-forecast cycles, maintaining rolling views of revenue, cost, headcount, and capex against plan
    • Build and maintain the consolidated corporate model, including P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, and key operating metrics
    • Develop and improve long-range financial plans in support of fundraising, board reporting, and strategic planning processes

    Business Partnership & Analysis

    • Serve as the primary finance business partner to 2–3 business units or functional leaders, translating operational activity into financial insight and actionable recommendations
    • Design and deliver monthly business reviews with clear variance analysis, bridging actuals to plan and forecast with crisp narratives for executive audiences
    • Build financial frameworks to evaluate strategic initiatives, investment decisions, headcount plans, and resource allocation trade-offs
    • Partner with Accounting to ensure a clean close process and accurate management reporting; help define what “good” looks like as reporting infrastructure matures

    Reporting & Infrastructure

    • Own and continuously improve the management reporting package distributed to senior leadership and the board, ensuring it is accurate, insightful, and decision-ready
    • Identify opportunities to automate and scale FP&A processes; drive adoption of planning tools and best practices across the Finance team
    • Develop KPI frameworks that connect financial outcomes to operational drivers, helping the business manage to leading indicators rather than lagging results
    • Support ad hoc financial analyses and special projects as directed by the CFO and VP Finance

    Skills, Knowledge, and Abilities 

    • 6-8+ years of total experience, with a track record of increasing responsibility in financial planning and analysis, corporate finance, or a closely related function
    • At least 2 years of foundational experience in investment banking, management consulting, or a similarly rigorous analytical training ground
    • Strong corporate FP&A experience in a complex, multi-site operating company; experience at a high-growth technology, industrials, or energy company is a plus
    • Exceptional financial modeling skills—able to build and maintain complex, integrated three-statement models and executive-facing reports from scratch
    • Demonstrated ability to communicate financial insights clearly to non-finance audiences, including executives and business unit leaders
    • Experience owning an end-to-end planning cycle (AOP, re-forecast, LRP) in an environment with meaningful operational complexity
    • Comfort navigating ambiguity and building process in a fast-moving, resource-constrained environment
    • Ability to be onsite 3–4 days per week in assigned office(s)
