• Analyze financial performance against forecasts and budgets, identifying underlying business drivers, risks, opportunities, and actionable recommendations to improve results.

• Lead financial analysis of strategic initiatives and investments, evaluating costs, benefits, ROI, and tradeoffs across headcount, vendor spend, and operating expenses.

• Build and own financial models to support expense planning, workforce planning, investment decisions, and scenario analysis, ensuring accuracy, transparency, and scalability.

• Develop executive-ready reporting, dashboards, and financial narratives that translate complex data into clear insights and recommendations for Finance and business leadership.

• Partner with business leaders to define key financial metrics, establish performance expectations, and track progress against operating plans and strategic priorities.

• Drive continuous improvement across Finance by simplifying processes, leveraging automation and AI-enabled tools, and enhancing reporting capabilities through platforms such as Power BI.

• Partner with teams across FP&A, Accounting, IT, People, Legal, Real Estate, Communications, and the broader business to strengthen financial discipline, improve visibility, and support data-driven decisions that advance company priorities.

• Lead high-impact financial analyses and special projects, bringing structure to ambiguous business questions and helping stakeholders evaluate alternatives and make informed decisions.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, Business, Data Analytics, or a related field.

• 5-8 years of progressive experience in Finance, FP&A, Corporate Finance, Strategic Finance, or a related analytical role.

• Demonstrated experience independently leading financial planning, forecasting, and analysis for business functions or departments.

• Strong financial modeling skills, including expense planning, workforce modeling, scenario analysis, and investment evaluation.

• Advanced proficiency with Microsoft Excel, including complex financial models, large datasets, and management reporting.

• Proven ability to build trusted relationships with business leaders, influence decisions, and communicate financial recommendations with confidence.

• Strong analytical, problem-solving, and business judgment skills, with the ability to connect financial results to operational and strategic priorities.

• Self-starter with an ownership mindset who can navigate complexity, challenge assumptions, and bring structure to ambiguous business problems.
