Why this role?

You will have a visible and influential role in shaping how financial information is used to guide the business.

You will collaborate with cross-functional partners across Sales, Operations, and HR, gaining exposure to senior leaders and contributing to an evolving finance function with room to grow.

How you will make an impact:

• Financial reporting and analysis. You will deliver recurring and ad hoc reporting that supports financial management, while building and refining models, templates, and tools that improve efficiency across monthly and day-to-day finance activities.
• Insight generation and communication. You will use PowerBI and related tools to interpret complex financial data, surface trends, and clearly communicate risks and opportunities to business partners.

• Business partnering and cost analysis. You will partner with Sales, Operations, and HR to analyze SG&A, margins, and inventory performance, providing consolidated reporting and insights that support operational and financial decision-making.

What you bring:

• The experience. You bring experience analyzing financial data, identifying insights, and telling the financial story of the business in a way stakeholders can understand and act on. You are comfortable navigating ambiguity, building processes where they do not yet exist, and driving continuous improvement.
• The knowledge. You have experience working with P&Ls and costing, and can assess risks and opportunities within both actual and forecasted results. You proactively identify opportunities to streamline processes and standardize reporting. CPA candidacy is strongly preferred.
