• Help increase the % of P&L and KPIs delivered via automated reporting; document assumptions and data lineage.
• Deliver new or improved methodologies to model various business costs and pending accruals for all aspects of the business (e.g., go-to-market investments, employee tooling, data procurement, etc.)
• Partner with Marketing, Product, and Commercial teams on ROI analyses (e.g., paid diligence, channel mix, CAC/LTV) and on standardized KPI definitions with the Business Intelligence team.
• Contribute to the annual plan and long-range planning with clean inputs, reconciliations, and scenario work.
• Support transition initiatives with clear cost tracking and reporting handoffs as financials consolidate under FP&A

What We’re Looking For:

• 1–2 years in FP&A, accounting, or finance operations; Bachelor’s in Finance, Economics, Mathematics, Accounting, or similar study with emphasis on Statistics or Data Analytics.
• Strong Excel/Google Sheets skills (lookups/index-match, pivots, basic scenario modeling); familiarity with SQL is a plus.
• Comfort with platforms typically leveraged for statistical models (e.g., R, Python, etc.)
• Comfort with BI/FP&A tools (e.g., Workday/Adaptive, Tableau/Power BI/Looker).
• Solid grasp of financial statements and P&L mechanics; attention to detail and ownership mindset.
• Clear communicator who can explain the “why” behind the numbers.
