Position Overview Dataiku is seeking a Senior Manager, Anaplan & Sales Compensation Systems to lead our Anaplan platform strategy within Strategic Finance. This is a net-new, high-visibility role responsible for owning the end-to-end architecture, governance, and roadmap of our Anaplan environment — spanning sales compensation, headcount planning, and forecasting. Beyond platform administration, this person will be a driving force in modernizing how Dataiku 's FP&A function operates — identifying where manual, spreadsheet-driven processes should give way to systematized, scalable workflows, and helping lead that transformation end-to-end. You'll set the technical and process direction for how Anaplan supports the business, manage relationships with implementation partners and consultants, and be the senior escalation point when data doesn't tie out. This role blends deep hands-on platform ownership with the strategic vision to modernize how FP&A operates — and the judgment to know when to build, when to bring in outside expertise, and when to say the current approach isn't sustainable. Key Responsibilities Own the strategic roadmap and architecture for Anaplan across sales compensation, headcount planning, and forecasting modules Serve as the senior escalation point for data int
