Senior FP&A Lead — Planning & Modelling

Bolt's Micromobility business has scaled into a significant vertical — and it now needs financial steering built specifically around it. This is a rare opportunity to build an FP&A function from scratch, own the forecast as the steering tool of the business, and shape the strategic direction of a fast-growing vertical. You'll report directly to the CFO, Micromobility.Locations: Berlin, Germany; Lisbon | Tallinn, Estonia

About the role

As the Senior FP&A Lead — Planning & Modelling, you'll be one of the first dedicated planning professionals within the Micromobility business. The function is being built from the ground up — with Bolt Group's data infrastructure and institutional knowledge as a foundation, but with the full complexity of a standalone vertical to manage. You'll own financial planning, scenario modelling, and business steering simultaneously. The forecast is the steering tool. The numbers are how the business is run. Your measure of success is the quality of decisions the business makes with your financial framing.

Main tasks and responsibilities:

Own and maintain the master forecast as the single source of truth; deliver monthly top-down updates and periodic bottom-up planning cycles, including the annual budget and CAPEX/OPEX planning.
Build and maintain fully integrated three-statement financial models (P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow) with operational drivers embedded; monitor key KPIs and surface risks and opportunities with supporting scenario analysis.
Challenge assumptions, model business plans, and provide the financial framing that drives commercial decisions — at country, city, and product level; evaluate business cases and investment proposals with a clear ROI and risk framework.
Build scenario and sensitivity models to evaluate strategic trade-offs; translate outputs into clear, actionable recommendations that influence how the business is run.
Produce a clear, decision-focused management report each month; own the integrity of the financial outputs and ensure they are usable by leadership — not just presentable.
Coordinate with Bolt Group FP&A on planning assumptions, consolidation inputs, and reporting standards; manage the MM business's contribution to Group cycles accurately and on time.

About you:

Proven experience in FP&A or corporate finance, with a track record of acting as a financial business partner to senior operational leadership in a high-growth, technology, or mobility environment.
Strong commercial instincts — ability to use financial models to challenge assumptions, frame strategic trade-offs, and influence decisions, not just report on them.
Exceptional financial modelling skills — able to build complex, fully integrated three-statement models from scratch with clean structure, transparent assumptions, and scenario flexibility.
Experience with financial planning tools (e.g. Pigment, Adaptive Insights, Anaplan) and advanced Excel proficiency.
Highly autonomous, with strong cross-team coordination skills — able to manage competing workstreams, set priorities independently, and align effectively with a large Group organization.
Familiarity with covenant structures, lender reporting, or investor relations is a strong advantage.
At Bolt, using AI daily is a baseline expectation for everyone. If there’s a faster, smarter way to do your work, we expect you to find it. You’re still responsible for the output, so the standard stays high when using AI tools. Experience is valuable, but what we really look for is drive, intelligence, and integrity — so if you don’t tick every box, apply anyway.
