This role will report to the VP of Financial Reporting & Analysis, with direct exposure to the CFO, and will be responsible for building and owning all board reporting, lender reporting, and the company's master operational reporting suite. The role provides regular, direct exposure to the executive team, the company's lenders, and its private equity sponsors - making it a high-visibility seat for someone early in their career who wants a fast track into the center of a rapidly scaling, acquisition-driven platform.

RESPONSIBILITIES

• Board Reporting - Own the preparation and production of board reporting packages, working with the CFO, VP of Financial Reporting & Analysis, and functional leaders to ensure materials are accurate, polished, and delivered on
• Lender Reporting - Own recurring lender and credit-facility reporting deliverables, ensuring timely, accurate submission and coordinating with Treasury, Accounting, and FP&A on underlying data.
• Master Operational Reporting - Design, build, and maintain the company's master suite of operational reports and KPI dashboards, serving as a single source of truth for leadership across the organization.
• Executive & Sponsor Presentations - Build recurring and ad hoc PowerPoint materials for the executive team, lenders, and private equity sponsors, translating complex financial and operational data into clear, decision-ready narratives.
• BI & Data Tools - Leverage BI tools (e.g., Tableau, Databricks) to build and refine dashboards and reporting
• Cross-Functional Partnership - Partner closely with FP&A, Accounting, Treasury, and Regional Vice Presidents of Finance & Accounting to source, validate, and standardize data used in company-wide reporting.
• M&A & Sponsor Support - Support ad hoc reporting and analysis requests tied to M&A activity, sponsor diligence, and portfolio-company reporting cadences.
• Process Improvement - Identify and implement improvements to reporting processes, templates, and controls to increase accuracy, speed, and scalability as the company continues to grow.

CAREER PATH

This role is designed as a launching point within PBFS's finance organization. Potential paths for growth include, but are not limited to: Investor Reporting, Regional Vice President of Finance & Accounting, M&A / Strategic Finance, or Business Development.

QUALIFICATIONS

• 2-3 years of experience at a top-tier management consulting firm or investment bank.
• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field.
• Exceptional PowerPoint skills - able to independently build polished, board- and lender-ready presentations from raw data with minimal direction.
• Advanced Excel skills, including financial modeling and complex data manipulation.
• Working proficiency in at least one BI tool (e.g., Tableau, Power BI, or similar); willingness and ability to quickly learn PBFS's Databricks-based reporting environment.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the executive presence to interact directly with the CFO, senior leadership, lenders, and private equity sponsors.
• High attention to detail and strong organizational skills; able to manage multiple concurrent, deadline-driven workstreams.
• Intellectual curiosity and a bias toward ownership - comfortable building something from a blank page rather than only maintaining existing reports.
• Prior exposure to private equity-backed or highly acquisitive companies is a plus, but not required.
