• Identify trends, risks, and opportunities and communicate findings to finance leadership.
• Help improve existing FP&A processes, reporting tools, dashboards, and financial models.
• Support strategic initiatives, capital investments, and other special projects as the company continues to grow.

 

Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field.
• 2+ years of FP&A, corporate finance, or related analytical experience.
• Advanced Excel skills are an absolute must. Candidates should be highly comfortable working with large datasets, using advanced formulas, PivotTables, lookups, and creating clean, scalable reporting tools.
• Strong financial modeling, budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis experience.
• Ability to work with large amounts of financial and operational data and turn that information into meaningful analysis.
• Strong understanding of the P&L and key business drivers; experience with balance sheet and cash flow forecasting is a plus.
• Experience working in a multi-site or multi-entity environment is a plus.
• Strong communication skills with the ability to work effectively with both finance and non-finance leaders.
• Comfortable working in a hands-on environment where priorities can move quickly.

 

The Opportunity

This role offers a nice combination of financial modeling, corporate FP&A, and operational finance. The Senior FP&A Analyst will have visibility across multiple business units and manufacturing locations and will work closely with leadership as the organization continues to scale.
