The Weather Company is the world’s leading weather provider, helping people and businesses make more informed decisions and take action in the face of weather. Together with advanced technology and AI, The Weather Company’s high-volume weather data, insights, advertising, and media solutions across the open web help people, businesses, and brands around the world prepare for and harness the power of weather in a scalable, privacy‑forward way. The world’s most accurate forecaster globally, the company reaches hundreds of enterprise clients and more than 360 million monthly active users via its digital properties from The Weather Channel (weather.com) and Weather Underground (wunderground.com).

Job brief:

We’re looking for a Finance & Business Operations Analyst (minimum 3+ years of experience) to join our talented Finance team. We support a global business that is passionate about the weather AND making innovative, data‑driven consumer products.

Does the thought of working for a brand with a reach of more than 360+ million users worldwide excite you? Do you aspire to be a strategic partner who connects financial numbers to real‑world business outcomes?

We’re seeking a spreadsheet‑fluent, commercially‑minded analyst who thrives on turning financial data into strategic execution. In this role, you won't just report the numbers; you will evaluate business performance, analyze product experimentation, and help guide strategic decision‑making. We are also looking for someone eager to explore and adopt AI tools to optimize financial modeling and automate operational workflows.

The impact you'll make:

• Financial & Operational Analysis: Analyze financial statements, sales performance, and product datasets to identify revenue opportunities, cost efficiencies, and commercial risks.
• Advanced Spreadsheet & Financial Modeling: Build and maintain sophisticated, dynamic financial models and scenario analyses (e.g., forecasting revenue impacts of new features, pricing changes, or market shifts).
• Drive Business Decisions: Partner with cross‑functional teams (Product, Sales, Marketing) to evaluate the ROI of business initiatives and guide resource allocation based on data.
• Experimentation & Commercial Outcomes: Analyze the financial viability and outcomes of A/B tests and product experiments to ensure user engagement translates to business growth.
• AI‑Driven Efficiency: Actively explore and implement modern AI tools (such as Claude, Gemini, or specialized AI financial plug‑ins) to accelerate data analysis, automate reporting, and streamline spreadsheet workflows.
• Sales Productivity & Strategy: Deep‑dive into sales pipelines, seller performance, and account‑level dynamics to optimize pricing models and improve commercial execution.
• Strategic Storytelling: Translate complex financial and operational data into clear, actionable dashboards and presentations for senior leadership to drive immediate action.

What you've accomplished:

• 3+ years of experience in Corporate Finance, FP&A, Business Operations (BizOps), or Strategic Consulting.
• Expert‑level spreadsheet skills: You are a master of financial modeling, forecasting, and data manipulation (Excel or Google Sheets).
• Strong commercial acumen: Proven track record of linking financial metrics (ROI, LTV, margins) to operational business decisions and outcomes.
• Curiosity for AI & Automation: Comfortable exploring and using Generative AI tools to solve problems, write formulas, summarize data, and improve productivity.
• No coding required, but data‑literate: You don't need to write SQL or Python, but you must know how to navigate large datasets and work comfortably with BI tools (like Tableau or Power BI).
• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Business, Economics, or a related field.
• Excellent communication skills: Ability to challenge assumptions, influence cross‑functional partners, and present financial concepts clearly to non‑finance stakeholders.

Benefits/Perks:

• Flexible Time Off program
• Hybrid work model
• Variety of medical insurance options, including a $0 cost premium employee coverage
• Benefits effective day 1 of employment include competitive 401K match with no vesting requirement, national health, dental, and vision plans
• Progressive family plan benefits
• An opportunity to work for a global and industry‑leading technology company
• Impactful work in a collaborative environment
