    Identify and articulate risks and opportunities impacting financial forecasts and performance. Proactively communicate findings to leadership and suggest action plans.

  • EBITDA Management:
    Collaborate with senior leadership to manage and optimize EBITDA. Provide in-depth analysis on cost structures, revenue streams, and operational efficiencies.

  • Strategic Financial Support:
    Partner with business units to support key strategic initiatives, including capital investments, cost management, and growth opportunities, ensuring financial outcomes align with organizational goals.

  • Financial Insights & Recommendations:
    Develop actionable insights and recommendations based on financial analysis to drive decision-making and business performance improvements.

  • Cross-functional Collaboration:
    Work alongside other departments (e.g., accounting, operations, and sales) to gather data, align on business objectives, and ensure financial goals are met.

  • Executive Presentation:
    Present financial findings and forecasts to senior executives, translating complex data into understandable insights that facilitate strategic decision-making.

  • 5+ years of experience in financial analysis, with at least 2 years in a leadership or lead analyst role.

  • Strong understanding of financial forecasting, budgeting, and financial reporting processes.

  • Advanced proficiency in Excel, financial modeling, and reporting software (e.g., Power BI, Tableau).

  • Proven ability to work collaboratively with executives and senior leadership.

  • Exceptional communication skills, both written and verbal, with the ability to simplify complex financial data for non-financial stakeholders.

  • Strong attention to detail, organizational skills, and the ability to prioritize in a fast-paced environment.
