We’re looking for a Senior Finance Analyst to join our Corporate FP&A team.

You’ll work closely with colleagues across FP&A and the broader Finance organization to deliver clear insights, align data from multiple sources, and help leadership translate business performance into profitability and cash.
What You’ll Do:
Build and maintain the Cash EBITDA and FCF models, delivering monthly actuals, forecasts, variance analyses, and cash bridges with a high level of accuracy, consistency, and transparency.
Coordinate the Annual Operating Plan and forecast cycles, consolidating financial plans, pressure-testing assumptions, and preparing company-level financial outputs.
Connect the P&L, Cash EBITDA, FCF, and cash flow forecasts so leadership can clearly see how operating performance translates into cash generation.

Reconcile results with Accounting and other Finance teams to ensure management reporting aligns with underlying financial data.
Produce monthly and quarterly reporting (actuals vs. forecast/plan) with actionable insights on key movements and drivers.
Prepare financial analysis, presentations, and supporting materials for senior Finance and company leadership.
Simplify and automate FP&A models and processes to reduce manual work and accelerate delivery of financial insights.
