What This Role Is
This is the person who takes ownership of the recurring FP&A engine so our Strategic Finance Manager can spend more time on strategic work. You'll own components of the budgeting and in-year re-forecast cycle end to end - data gathering, financial modeling, and variance analysis - and support financial close by producing source materials and coordinating accurate, timely accruals with cross-functional partners. You'll also build out the automated reporting and FP&A processes that let a lean finance team punch above its weight, leveraging AI tools, FP&A software, or both.
What This Role Is Not
A generalist role - this requires explicit finance and financial modeling experience, not broad operational exposure. That said, some appetite to flex beyond core FP&A for ad-hoc analysis is a plus - the line is finance grounding, not rigidity.
An over-indexed strategic seat - the team already has strong strategic thinking; this role needs someone tactical and methodical who can own the mechanics of forecasting and reporting.
Who You Are
- You hold a Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, or a related field.
- You have 2-4 years of experience in financial analysis, FP&A, accounting, or a related analytical role.
- Your Excel and financial modeling skills are advanced - you can build a forecast and variance analysis from scratch.
- You have a solid grasp of the three financial statements and the drivers behind them; you can connect operational KPIs to financial line items.
- You are a strong communicator who can explain a variance to non-finance stakeholders and collaborate effectively with partners across a range of financial backgrounds - we're a lean team with no translation layer, so this matters especially in partnering closely with Operations.
- Nice to have:
- Familiarity with AI tools (e.g., Claude Code, Codex) and experience automating finance-specific workflows or otherwise using AI to improve your output.
- BI tools (Power BI, Tableau, Looker) and/or a planning tool (Vena, Pigment, Data Rails, Cube).
- ERP exposure. (Netsuite) - if coming from the accounting side, auditing exposure is preferred over implementation exposure.)
- Consumer/CPG/DTC experience.
