Job Description

• Build and maintain complex, driver-based financial models that support forecasting, multi-year planning, scenario analysis, and investment or business case evaluation. • Translate market insights, operational drivers, and performance trends into clear financial insights that inform strategic and operational planning discussions. • Support financial evaluation of business cases and capital investments by modeling returns, cost structures, risks, sensitivities, and long-term value implications. • Support capital budgeting processes through financial analysis, project tracking, and linkage of results to broader financial plans. • Improve the efficiency and accuracy of forecasting and planning by streamlining workflows, strengthening model architecture, and reducing manual effort through automation and smart tooling. • Leverage strong analytical and data skills, including advanced Excel, data transformation tools, and familiarity with BI outputs, to deliver meaningful insights and performance reporting. • Identify leading indicators, emerging risks, and performance gaps, and surface findings and recommendations that support informed decision-making. • Provide high-quality FP&A partnership by pressure-testing assumptions, identifying value drivers, and helping decision makers understand financial risks, trade-offs, and constraints. • Participate in the design, testing, and rollout of financial systems and planning tools, contributing to model validation and supporting alignment of workflows and data structures with business needs. • Create intuitive visualizations and reporting that help stakeholders quickly understand trends, outcomes, and key decision points.

Job Requirements

  • 7+ years of progressive FP&A experience, ideally including early career accounting experience.
  • Demonstrated experience building complex, driver-based financial and operational models.
  • Strong understanding of forecasting, budgeting, variance analysis, and KPI development.
  • Advanced Excel proficiency, including PowerQuery, PowerPivot, and disciplined model structuring.
  • Experience supporting capital planning, investment analysis, or multi-year financial planning.
  • Familiarity with ERP, FP&A, and business intelligence tools such as NetSuite, Anaplan, PowerBI, Tableau, Adaptive, or similar platforms.
  • Ability to translate large volumes of financial and operational data into clear, decision-ready insights.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills with the ability to explain complex concepts clearly.
