Job Description

CuraCor Solutions is seeking a results-oriented, organized, analytical, and intellectually curious finance professional, who wants to make a strong impact in driving financial optimization across multiple organizations as part of the Financial Monitoring & Analysis ("FMA") team within our Diversified Business Group.

In this role, you will build a strong understanding of CuraCor's portfolio companies' performance drivers and develop clear, insightful analyses and presentations that will support leadership decisions. You will create recurring reporting and forecasts, dig into trends and variances, dive into ad‑hoc analyses, and help turn numbers into actionable insights for leaders.

This role is ideal for analytical professionals eager to expand their expertise in connecting insights, mastering complexity, and demonstrating measurable contributions to business objectives.

We invest and partner with innovative health care organizations in North Carolina and beyond, focused on improving healthcare outcomes, affordability, access, and experience. We work with teams who are building what's next in health care, and we bring financial clarity that helps great ideas scale responsibly.

What You'll Do

Financial Reporting: Help prepare and deliver monthly financial reporting that is accurate, timely, and easy for stakeholders to use. Keep recurring updates on‑track while focusing on the details so the narrative in the numbers is reliable.
Variance Analysis: Analyze results versus budget, forecast, and prior periods. Investigate what is driving key revenue and expense variances and summarize findings into clear, decision‑ready commentary.
Ad Hoc Financial Analysis: Build analyses and models that help answer "what if?" and "what's next?" questions. Examples include profitability and unit economics, scenario modeling, and business case support. Present results clearly and concisely.
Budgeting & Forecasting: Support annual budgeting, planning, and periodic reforecasting. Partner with FMA colleagues to update assumptions, build projections, and connect portfolio performance with Enterprise FP&A processes.
Cross‑Functional Collaboration: Work closely with CuraCor and Blue Cross NC Finance partners to coordinate inputs, align on timelines, and deliver consistent, accurate updates, especially during close, forecast cycles, and for leadership requests.
Process Improvement: Maintain and improve reporting templates and financial models for efficiency, consistency, and accuracy. Help implement process enhancements and tools within the FMA function, staying aligned with internal controls and policies.
Accuracy & Ownership: Bring strong attention to detail and pride into the work, checking outputs, documenting assumptions, and meeting deadlines so leaders trust the work product.

What You Bring

Education: Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field.
Experience: 3+ years of relevant experience in financial analysis, financial reporting, or FP&A in a corporate setting (required). Experience supporting reporting cycles and participating in budgeting/forecasting is a plus.
Analytical Ability: Strong analytical and problem‑solving skills with an eye for detail. Identify trends and anomalies, ask insightful questions, and translate data into understandable and actionable commentary for leaders.
Communication: Clear written (Outlook, PowerPoint, Excel) and verbal communication skills. Explain financial results to non‑finance partners and summarize insights in a crisp, audience‑friendly way. Communicate professionally, collaboratively, and diplomatically with senior executives regarding sensitive topics.
Organization & Time Management: Highly organized and reliable, able to manage recurring monthly deadlines while handling requests in short turnaround times. Plan ahead, follow through, and maintain composure when priorities shift.
Team Collaboration: Eager to work across teams and express humility. Build trust quickly, respond well to feedback, and enjoy being part of a group that gets things done.

Bonus Points (Preferred Qualifications)

FP&A Toolkit: Comfort with financial statements, budgeting concepts, and variance analysis, and willingness to delve into details.
Excel Strength: Strong Microsoft Excel skills (PivotTables, lookups, formulas, data analysis features). Power Query/Power Pivot is a plus.
AI Efficiencies: Experience with, or interest in, gaining efficiencies and insights through the use of AI.
Healthcare Curiosity: Exposure to, or interest in, healthcare and the business drivers and metrics that matter.
Growth Mindset: Curious, proactive, and eager to improve how things work. Comfortable asking questions, learning quickly, and taking on new challenges with integrity and follow‑through.

What You'll Get

Blue Cross NC is a great place to grow your career, and we have the recognition to back it up. We are known for our culture, community impact, flexibility, and benefits. On CuraCor's FMA team, you'll get exposure to a portfolio of innovative health care companies, work with smart and supportive teammates, and directly make an impact, seeing how your analyses shape decisions that improve health care for all.

Where You'll Work

Our Hybrid Flex approach is built on presence with a purpose—giving you flexibility to work remotely with intentional in‑person connection—that supports a workplace that is flexible, connected, and future focused.

In a Hybrid‑Flex role, you'll work in the office at least two days a week for collaboration and connection. In a Remote Flex role, you'll work virtually, with a few in‑office visits each year for meaningful moments that matter.

Whether your role is Hybrid Flex or Remote Flex depends on the nature of the work and distance from our Durham headquarters. We welcome candidates from outside the local area and in any states listed on this job posting. Onsite expectations will be discussed during the interview process.

Salary Range

At Blue Cross NC, we take great pride in a fair and equitable compensation package that reflects market‑price and our starting salaries are typically planned near the middle of the range listed. Compensation decisions are driven by factors including experience and training, specialized skill sets, licensure and certifications and other business and organizational needs. Our base salary is part of a robust Total Rewards package that includes an Annual Incentive Bonus, 401(k) with employer match, Paid Time Off (PTO), and competitive health benefits and wellness programs.

Based on annual corporate goal achievement and individual performance.
