Manager, FP&A

Ignyte Insurance Group is the industry’s leading M&A-driven global leader in specialty insurance and a proven acquisition platform, managing over $650 million in premium across its specialty programs and brands worldwide. With a track record of building and scaling successful insurance programs since 1990, we are relentlessly focused on growth through strategic mergers and acquisitions.

Backed by our private equity sponsor, Carlyle, we have executed an aggressive M&A strategy, completing $4 billion+ in transactions across North America, the UK, and Europe. This commitment to expansion has positioned us as one of the fastest-growing specialty insurance providers in the industry.

Named a Philadelphia Inquirer Top Workplace, Ignyte NSM offers a dynamic, high-energy environment where ambitious professionals can gain unparalleled exposure to M&A transactions, integration strategy, and private equity-backed growth initiatives. As we continue to scale, we are seeking top-tier talent to help drive our next phase of acquisitions and expansion.

We are seeking a highly analytical and transaction-focused Manager of FP&A to play a critical role in driving financial insights, strategic decision-making, and M&A execution across NSM. This role is ideal for a finance professional with a passion for mergers and acquisitions, transactional modeling, forecasting, and financial reporting in a private equity-backed environment.

In this position, you will lead financial analysis and planning initiatives, including building detailed transaction models, evaluating M&A opportunities, preparing investment cases, and driving post-acquisition integration analysis. You will also oversee forecasting, management reporting, and financial presentations for our private equity sponsor, ensuring leadership has the insights needed to maximize profitability and drive strategic growth.

This is a hands-on, high-impact role requiring strong analytical skills, attention to detail, and the ability to collaborate across all levels of the organization. If you’re looking to gain in-depth exposure to M&A transactions, work closely with senior leadership, and help shape the financial strategy of a dynamic, growing company, we’d love to hear from you.
