At Sunstate Equipment, we are building a high-performing organization grounded in service, accountability, continuous improvement, and long-term growth.

Reporting to the Chief Financial Officer, the Vice President of Financial Planning, Analytics & Strategy serves as a key member of the Finance leadership team and a strategic business partner to the CFO, CEO, Senior Leadership Team, and operational leaders across the company.

This role is responsible for leading enterprise financial planning, forecasting, analytics, and strategic financial decision support.

  • Serve as a strategic advisor to the CFO and executive leadership team.
  • Translate operational performance into financial outcomes and decision-ready insights.
  • Support executive, Board, and ownership presentations with clear, compelling financial analysis.

Build Planning Discipline and Financial Governance

  • Partner closely with Accounting to align forecasts with actual performance and ensure consistent financial visibility.
  • Support monthly and quarterly business reviews.
  • Help establish strong planning discipline, financial governance, and decision support processes across the organization.
