Senior Financial Analyst

Taylor White
Tampa, FL

A growing company is looking for an experienced Senior Financial Analyst to play a central role in its FP&A function. Reporting to a senior finance leader, you'll have meaningful exposure to executive and Board-level audiences while also rolling up your sleeves with operational teams day to day. This is a role for someone who takes pride in the quality of their analysis and genuinely enjoys helping a business make smarter decisions.


Responsibilities

Planning, Budgeting & Forecasting

  • Take the lead on the annual budgeting cycle — from data gathering and validation through to presenting key findings to operational and executive leadership
  • Build and maintain financial models that support rolling forecasts, long-range plans, and strategic scenarios
  • Develop revenue and bookings projections by drawing on pipeline data, historical trends, and market context
  • Conduct regular variance analysis against budget and prior periods, clearly explaining what drove the results and what it means going forward
  • Run scenario and ad hoc analyses whenever the business needs financial grounding for a decision
  • Support M&A activity including modeling, due diligence, and post-close performance tracking

Business Partnership

  • Act as a trusted finance partner to operational and commercial leaders across the business
  • Get close enough to each team's priorities that your forecasts and analyses reflect what's actually happening on the ground
  • Surface risks and opportunities proactively, and come with a perspective on what should be done about them
  • Lead and coordinate monthly financial review presentations for operations leadership
  • Provide guidance and support to other members of the finance team as needed
  • Partner with cross-functional teams to sharpen reporting processes, data integrity, and analytical capabilities

Reporting & Infrastructure

  • Own the design and delivery of weekly, monthly, and quarterly financial and operational reporting for senior leadership and operational managers
  • Develop and implement FP&A best practices that raise the bar on budgeting, forecasting, and insight generation
  • Build and maintain dashboards and reporting tools that give stakeholders accurate, timely visibility into performance
  • Manage a reliable reporting cadence across multiple timeframes that the business can depend on


What You'll Bring

  • A degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field; an MBA is a plus
  • 5+ years in FP&A or a comparable finance role
  • Advanced Excel and financial modeling skills; you build models that are clean, logical, and easy for others to use
  • Experience with CRM, billing, and BI platforms in an integrated data environment; database or data management exposure is a bonus
  • Sharp analytical instincts with the ability to move from raw data to clear, actionable recommendations
  • A communicator who can translate complex financial information for non-finance audiences at every level
  • Highly organized and detail-oriented, with the ability to manage multiple priorities without losing rigor
