About the Role
~1 min readWe're looking for a Senior Financial Analyst to own reporting and analysis that keeps leadership informed on how our topline is performing. This role sits at the center of how the business understands its growth - building and maintaining the reporting packages leadership relies on, producing sharp analysis on revenue trends and drivers, and owning the financial models that inform forecasting and decision-making. You'll work closely with FP&A team members and cross-functional business partners to translate raw data into clear, actionable insight. This is a highly hands-on role for someone who wants ownership: you'll build the models, not just maintain someone else's; you'll own the reporting cadence, not just contribute to it.
