Locke Solutions is a premier provider of custom precast concrete solutions and was recently recognized as Houston's #1 Fastest Growing Company by the Houston Business Journal. We're in an exciting period of growth and transformation, expanding from one to three locations in just two years, and we're on track to reach $100 million in revenue by 2027. Our core values--responsiveness, teamwork, an ownership mentality, a 'get it done' attitude, and problem-solving--form the foundation of our inclusive and collaborative culture. Locke Solutions is a rewarding workplace for those who thrive in a high-energy, fast-paced environment. The Strategic Finance Analyst is a high-impact role within Locke's Strategic Finance Organization, designed to drive financial discipline and operational insights essential for Locke's $100 million growth trajectory. As the right arm of the Director of Finance, Human Resources, and Administration, this role transcends traditional FP&A. You will deliver actionable insights, develop innovative tools, and collaborate with cross-functional teams to drive improved financial results. Key contributions include tailored profitability models, strategic financial analysis, and support for transformative initiatives such as M&A and plant-level performance optimization. Key Responsibilities 1. Financial Planning, Budgeting, and Strategic Analysis Develop and maintain an integrated forecasting model to predict business results from pre-sales through free cash flow (EBITDA less CapEx), enabling leadership to make proactive, informed decisions. Lead the budgeting process by engaging budget owners to ensure alignment with strategic priorities, escalating significant variations to the CFO for approval based on ROI or strategic justification, and driving disciplined execution throughout the year. Create financial dashboards and KPIs that promote transparency, accountability, and actionable insights, supporting data-driven decision-making across the organization. Conduct advanced financial modeling, including plant and customer profitability analysis, to guide operational and financial strategies. Support M&A initiatives by conducting financial due diligence, data analysis, and integration planning to ensure successful transitions and growth alignment. Lead strategic projects that enhance financial discipline, operational efficiency, and Locke's competitive positioning in the industry. 2. Operational and Cross-Functional Partnership Collaborate with General Operations Managers (GOMs) and other leaders to improve plant-level profitability, enhance efficiency, and identify cost-saving opportunities. Partner with the Process Improvement Forum (PIF) to drive cross-functional projects that align with Locke's strategic objectives, focusing on improved processes, systems, and outcomes. Provide actionable recommendations to optimize production, purchasing, supply chain functions, and other operational areas, ensuring alignment between financial goals and business execution. 3. Optimizing ROI and Strategic Investments Establish a robust, risk-adjusted ROI framework to guide capital expenditure decisions and prioritize investments. Collaborate with the Director of Sales and Marketing to leverage financial insights for data-driven decisions on market spend, sales productivity, and strategic initiatives. This includes providing analytics on new markets--assessing risks, threats, and opportunities--and exploring new product categories that complement existing product lines. Develop advanced tools to evaluate customer segmentation, product mix performance, and overall profitability, delivering actionable insights to support strategic decision-making. Partner with the estimating team to provide data-driven insights that improve win rates and optimize bid accuracy, ensuring alignment with competitive pricing strategies. What to Expect in This Role Engagement with Strategic Initiatives: Collaborate across functions to improve profitability and implement financial discipline. Impact Beyond Back-Office: Engage as a business partner, contributing insights that enhance financial and operational results. Leadership Backing: Operate with full support from senior leadership and access the resources needed to drive success. Qualifications Education: Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field required; advanced qualifications (e.g., MBA, CPA, CMA) a plus. Experience: 3-5+ years in FP&A, corporate finance, or a related role with proven ability to deliver insights and improve financial outcomes. Technical Skills: Proficient in ERP systems (Titan preferred), advanced Excel, and financial modeling tools. Analytical Expertise: Ability to create tailored models and translate data into actionable strategies. Interpersonal Skills: Collaborative and influential communicator who can engage cross-functional stakeholders effectively. Why Join Us? At Locke Solutions, we're more than just a team--we're a close-knit community committed to each other's growth and success.
