Position Overview

Are you the person who looks at a variance and immediately wants to understand what caused it?

  • Work with Accounting and FP&A to ensure financial actuals are accurately reflected in forecasts and planning activities.

  • Build clear explanations of performance across the income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow statement.

  • Support the development of stronger balance sheet and cash flow forecasting and analysis.

  • Monitor important financial and operating KPIs and communicate trends to stakeholders.

  • Support capital planning, CAPEX analysis, fixed-asset reporting, project schedules, and related rollforwards.

  • Prepare financial analysis and supporting materials for leadership discussions and presentations.

  • Work directly with business partners to investigate financial results and answer reporting-related questions.

  • Conduct accounting research when needed and contribute to technical accounting documentation.

  • Provide ad hoc analysis to help leadership evaluate business opportunities and financial decisions.

  • Identify opportunities to streamline recurring reporting through better processes, automation, and financial systems.

  • Help strengthen the connection between Accounting, FP&A, and business operations as the organization continues to grow.

What We’re Looking For

  • Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, or a related discipline.

  • At least 3 years of progressive experience within financial reporting, accounting, FP&A, or a related finance function.

  • Demonstrated ability to analyze financial results and explain meaningful budget and forecast variances.

  • Strong understanding of GAAP and core financial reporting concepts.

  • Experience participating in monthly, quarterly, and annual financial reporting cycles.

  • Ability to create management reporting or MD&A-style analysis that turns financial data into an understandable narrative.

  • Strong Excel capabilities, including Pivot Tables, XLOOKUP/VLOOKUP, and SUMIFS.

  • Experience working with ERP, business intelligence, or financial reporting platforms; exposure to Sage Intacct or Domo is beneficial.

  • Public accounting experience is strongly preferred.

  • CPA designation is welcomed but not required.

  • Strong written communication skills and the ability to present financial information clearly to different audiences.

  • Ability to work effectively with both Accounting and FP&A teams as well as non-finance business partners.
