The Role:

We are looking for a financially sharp, relationship-driven professional to serve as both a trusted advisor to our business leaders and a key contributor to our financial planning and analysis function. This hybrid role sits at the intersection of strategic partnership and rigorous financial analysis — you will spend roughly equal time embedded with operational teams providing real-time financial guidance and building the models, forecasts, and reporting that drive organizational decisions.

This is an ideal role for someone who is equally comfortable presenting budget variance analysis to executives and building a multi-year financial model from scratch.

What You’ll Do:

Financial Planning & Analysis

\n
• Own the annual budgeting and quarterly forecasting processes for assigned departments or business units
\n
• Build and maintain financial models to support scenario planning, long-range planning, and strategic initiatives
\n
• Prepare monthly and quarterly financial reporting packages, including variance analysis with clear narrative commentary
\n
• Identify trends, risks, and opportunities in financial performance and proactively surface them to leadership
\n
• Support the development of the organization-wide long-range financial plan
\n
• Contribute to board and leadership reporting materials
\n

Business Partnering

\n
• Serve as the primary finance contact for one or more operational departments or program areas
\n
• Translate financial data into actionable insights that non-finance leaders can understand and act on
\n
• Participate in department leadership meetings and proactively advise on financial implications of operational decisions
\n
• Review proposed initiatives, programs, or investments and provide financial analysis to support go/no-go decisions
\n
• Challenge assumptions constructively and help business leaders think through the financial impact of their plans
\n
• Build trusted relationships across the organization so that finance is seen as a strategic partner, not just a reporting function
\n

Process & Systems

\n
• Identify opportunities to improve financial reporting, forecasting accuracy, and analytical processes
\n
• Support the maintenance and improvement of financial planning tools and systems
\n
• Assist with month-end close activities as needed, partnering with accounting to ensure accuracy
\n

What You’ll Bring:

Required

\n
• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or related field
\n
• 3–5 years of progressive experience in FP&A, financial analysis, or a finance business partner role
\n
• Strong financial modeling skills with advanced proficiency in Excel
\n
• Demonstrated ability to translate complex financial information for non-financial audiences
\n
• Experience with budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis
\n
• Strong communication and interpersonal skills — this role requires building relationships as much as building models
\n

Preferred

\n
• Experience in a nonprofit, healthcare, or mission-driven organization
\n
• Familiarity with ERP or financial planning systems (e.g.NetSuite, SAP)
\n
• Experience presenting financial information to senior leaders or boards
\n
• CPA, CMA, or MBA a plus but not required
\n

Benefits

\n
• Paid Time-Off: We offer flexible vacation time with 10 company holidays.
\n
• Health Plans: We offer robust medical, dental, and vision plans for you and your dependents. Disability, life insurance, and FSA benefits are also available
\n
• Wellness: Access to Teladoc and an EAP
\n
• Parental Leave: Paid leave
\n
• Retirement Savings: Contribute pretax earnings to our 401(k) Plan
\n

Our Culture

\n
• Impact: Play a crucial role in our growth journey.
\n
• Culture: Join a vibrant team valuing creativity and collaboration.
\n
• Growth: Thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment.
\n
• Reward: Enjoy competitive compensation, equity opportunities, and comprehensive benefits.
\n
• Ready to shape our future? Apply now and be part of something extraordinary!
