About the Position
A growing organization is seeking a Senior Financial Analyst to play a key role in driving financial strategy, budgeting, and supporting growth initiatives. This high-visibility role provides significant exposure to experienced leadership and direct involvement in mergers and acquisitions (M&A), including due diligence and integration processes. The Senior Financial Analyst will collaborate across departments to deliver data-driven insights, build sophisticated financial models, and influence strategic decision-making. The ideal candidate is a self-starter who can take initiative and work independently while also thriving in a collaborative team environment.

Responsibilities

  • Lead the annual budgeting process, including preparation, analysis, and collaboration with leadership to optimize results.
  • Develop and maintain advanced financial models, including scenario modeling, sensitivity analysis, “what-if” analysis, and cash flow projections, to support strategic initiatives.
  • Perform in-depth variance analysis, benchmarking, and time series analysis to identify trends and inform decision-making.
  • Partner with operational leaders to manage budget-to-actual performance, offering insights to improve budgeting processes and financial outcomes.
  • Support M&A activities, including financial due diligence, valuation modeling, and post-acquisition integration planning.
  • Research market trends, conduct competitive analysis, and provide strategic recommendations to leadership for growth opportunities.
  • Proactively identify process improvements and opportunities for increased efficiency in reporting, forecasting, and planning.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to deliver ad hoc analyses and special projects.
  • Take initiative on key projects, independently driving tasks to completion with minimal supervision.
  • Support dashboard creation and data visualization management to effectively communicate financial results and KPIs (nice to have).

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field.
  • 3–7 years of experience in financial analysis or similar roles.
  • Advanced financial modeling experience, including scenario modeling, sensitivity analysis, “what-if” analysis, and data visualization including building dashboards skills.
  • Strong budgeting experience, including leading annual budget processes and managing budget-to-actual reporting.
  • Excellent Excel skills with the ability to develop dynamic and complex models.
  • Experience supporting M&A processes, including financial due diligence and valuation modeling, is a plus.
  • Exceptional analytical, problem-solving, and communication skills.
  • A proactive, self-starter mindset with the ability to take initiative and work independently when needed.
  • Strong organizational skills and attention to detail in fast-paced, deadline-driven environments.

Benefits

  • Competitive compensation
  • Comprehensive healthcare benefits
  • 401(k) retirement plan with company match
  • Direct exposure to senior leadership and strategic decision-making processes
  • Opportunity to contribute to M&A projects and play a critical role in the organization’s growth

This is a unique opportunity for a self-motivated professional to gain visibility, take ownership of impactful projects, and contribute to the financial success and strategic direction of a growing organization.
