Position Overview

System One is partnering with a client seeking a highly technical FP&A Analyst to join their Finance team on a long-term contract basis. This role is execution-focused and designed for someone who thrives in a hands-on, Excel-intensive environment. The primary objective is to take ownership of complex financial reporting, rebuild and enhance existing Excel models, and improve the overall integrity and usability of financial data.

This position will play a critical role in alleviating senior team members from manual reporting work, allowing them to focus on higher-level responsibilities.

• Work with large datasets, ensuring accuracy and usability
• Develop structured outputs for leadership reporting
• Translate data into visual formats such as charts, summaries, and presentation-ready materials
• Streamline and improve manual reporting processes

Technical Environment

• Highly Excel-driven reporting environment
• Heavy reliance on manual spreadsheet processes (non-system driven)
• Use of Google Sheets; comfort in a Google-based environment is important

• Advanced, hands-on Excel expertise, including:
  • Power Pivot
  • VLOOKUP/XLOOKUP
  • Data modeling and large dataset management
• Proven ability to rebuild and improve existing Excel reporting structures
• Experience identifying and fixing broken data linkages across multiple files
• Strong attention to detail and commitment to data accuracy
• FP&A experience with exposure to forecasting (P&L and balance sheet)
• Ability to create reporting outputs suitable for leadership audiences

Ideal Candidate Profile

• Mid-level professional with 4–8 years of experience
• Highly technical, detail-oriented, and execution-driven
• Comfortable working independently in a less structured environment
• Strong “builder” mindset with a passion for improving processes in Excel
• Able to connect detailed work to broader financial reporting needs

What This Role Is Not

• Not a strategic finance or leadership position
• Not focused on high-level business analysis or storytelling
• Not suitable for candidates with intermediate Excel skills
• Not a fit for senior-level professionals who are no longer hands-on
