Senior FP&A Analyst

Finance Partner Opportunity

Encore is growing fast, through organic expansion and acquisitions, and every business we bring in has to land in the same financial picture quickly and accurately. That's where you come in. As the finance partner to the acquired and partner companies in your region, you'll help them plan, report, and perform like the rest of Encore.

Day to day, you'll work with the operations leaders and location managers at those businesses: standardizing their reporting, tracking how they perform after they join, and turning what you find into forecasts and recommendations. You'll report to the Director, FP&A and work side by side with Corporate FP&A and Accounting so regional results roll up cleanly into enterprise reporting.

Not every process is defined yet, and that's part of the appeal. If you take ownership, explain numbers so non-finance partners actually get them, and stay comfortable when the answer isn't written down, you'll do well here. You'll also get real visibility with regional and corporate leadership and the sponsor, in a PE-backed growth story at the largest full-service fire protection company on the East Coast.

Key Responsibilities

• Serve as the finance business partner for your assigned region, preparing location- and region-level P&L reviews, variance analysis, and commentary that explains what is driving results.
• Support the annual budget and periodic forecasts for your locations, working with regional and branch leadership on assumptions.
• Build and maintain models and dashboards that connect operational measures (technician productivity, backlog, inspection and service revenue, project margin) to financial results.
• Support post-acquisition integration: onboarding acquired locations into our chart of accounts, reporting package, and KPI framework, and tracking integration milestones and synergy realization.
• Contribute to M&A activity as needed, including reviewing target financials, supporting QOE and diligence analysis, and building the bridge from the seller's numbers to ours.
• Support the monthly internal and external reporting packages, including regional inputs to the sponsor and lender reporting.
• Partner with accounting on month-end timing, accruals, and the reconciliation of operational data to the general ledger.
• Provide regional inputs to cash forecasting (collections, capex, and acquisition-related cash needs).
• Identify and implement process improvements that make regional reporting and planning cleaner and more scalable.

What You Bring to the Table

• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field.
• 4+ years of related experience in FP&A, operational finance, or Transaction Services, with exposure to multi-location or acquisitive businesses.
• A strong understanding of how the P&L, Balance Sheet, and Statement of Cash Flows connect.
• Advanced Excel and PowerPoint skills. Exposure to BI tools and databases is a plus.
• The ability to explain financial results to non-finance operators clearly and credibly, and to push back constructively when the numbers and the narrative don't match.
• The ability to manage multiple priorities as deal activity and close deadlines compete for your time.
• A collaborative mindset and comfort working with acquired-business owners and regional leaders.

What Will Make You Stand Out?

• Experience in a private equity-backed or roll-up environment.
• Experience in Transaction Services at a CPA firm, including QOE modeling.
• Prior integration work: mapping acquired entities into a consolidated reporting structure.
• Experience in a service, field operations, or construction-adjacent business.
• CPA or MBA.

Beyond the Paycheck

• Competitive Pay: Compensation commensurate with your experience, with the opportunity to earn performance-based bonuses tied to your personal effectiveness and contributions to the team.
• Purpose-Driven Work Environment: We believe in working smarter, not harder. You'll be part of a culture that values results, and we empower our team to focus on impactful work.
• Flexible Dress Code: Upon joining, you'll receive branded Encore swag, and we believe in dressing for the objective, not the occasion. Most days, you can enjoy a casual work environment, but we'll dress up when the situation calls for it.
• People-Focused Culture: We know our greatest strength is our people. That's why we've built a culture that encourages experimentation, learning, and improving together. You'll have the space to share your ideas and help shape a company that is constantly growing.
• Tools for Success: Access to leading-edge web-based productivity tools.
• Health and Wellness: Comprehensive medical, dental, and vision coverage to keep you and your family healthy.
• Retirement Planning: Participation in our Fidelity 401(k) plan with a company match, helping you save for your future.
• Life Insurance: Company-paid life insurance policy of $50,000 to give you peace of mind.
