About the role

Forward Air Corp. in Dallas, TX is seeking a Manager of Financial Planning and Analysis to own the consolidated monthly forecasting and annual budget cycle, delivering clear executive-ready insights. You will build driver-based models linking volume, yield, transportation costs, and labor; lead board reporting, variance analyses, and scenario planning for strategic opportunities. This role requires strong leadership and advanced Excel, Anaplan-like tools, and AI-enabled workflow enhancements.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
