• Prepare recurring financial analyses and reports that support financial planning, business performance monitoring, and operational decision-making.
• Develop and maintain financial models that translate business assumptions, operational drivers, and strategic plans into financial forecasts.
• Analyze actual financial performance against budgets and forecasts, identify material variances, and explain underlying financial and operational drivers.
• Support the financial close process by preparing source materials and coordinating accurate, timely accruals with cross-functional partners.
• Evaluate relationships between operational KPIs, revenue and expense drivers, and the three primary financial statements.
• Partner with Operations and other business functions to gather financial inputs, validate assumptions, and communicate performance insights.

• 2-4 years of professional experience in financial analysis, financial planning and analysis (FP&A), accounting, or a related analytical role.
• Practical experience developing financial forecasts, performing variance analysis, and working with financial models.
• Direct experience with finance-focused analytical work rather than exclusively general operational responsibilities.

Required Skills

• Advanced Microsoft Excel skills, including the ability to independently build financial forecasts and variance analyses from scratch.
• Strong financial modeling capabilities and understanding of budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning processes.
• Solid knowledge of the three primary financial statements and the financial and operational factors that influence them.
• Ability to connect operational KPIs and business performance metrics to financial statement line items.
• Ability to analyze financial performance, identify variances, and explain the financial drivers behind changes in results.
• Strong analytical, organizational, and communication skills, with the ability to present financial information clearly to non-finance stakeholders.
