  • Regular updating of revenue & net income projections, including reporting on actual vs budgeted expenses
  • Provide financial modeling and analysis to foster informed, strategic decision-making, including market analysis, business case development, corporate financial analysis, and cost analysis.
  • Identify and implement opportunities to streamline financial planning.
  • Collaborate cross-functionally with analytics, engineering, risk, and finance teams on ad hoc projects as assigned.

Who you are:

  • 6-8 years of progressive experience in accounting, finance, business analytics, or financial analysis.
  • Bachelor’s degree from an accredited institution.
  • Experience with forecasting revenues, expenses, balance sheets, and resources across business lines and legal entities.
  • Experience in business case preparation and cost-benefit analysis is a plus.
  • Skilled in preparing and presenting detailed analysis, variances, commentary, and management information.
  • Knowledge of asset-backed lending and capital markets products and their relationships to financial statements.
  • Strong proficiency in Excel (e.g., pivot tables, VLOOKUP) and Google Sheets.

Compensation and Benefits:

  • Base Salary: Earn a competitive base salary ranging from $110,000 to $145,000.
  • Healthcare: We prioritize your well-being by covering 80% of medical, dental, and vision insurance costs. Additionally, we contribute 75% of the premium for your spouse and/or dependents.
