About the role

Broan-NuTone’s Finance Leadership Development Program is a multi-year rotational experience designed for high-performing finance professionals ready to accelerate their development and prepare for increasingly complex roles. Over the course of three cross-functional rotations, each approximately 12–14 months, you’ll expand your technical expertise, strengthen your business acumen, develop leadership capabilities, and build relationships with leaders across Broan-NuTone.

This is not an entry-level rotational program. It is designed for professionals with meaningful Finance or Accounting experience who want to build breadth across multiple disciplines while contributing to real business priorities.

Your Rotational Experience

Your first rotational assignment will be either Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A) or Manufacturing & Operations Finance. Over the course of the program, additional rotations may include:

  • Commercial Finance
  • Manufacturing & Supply Chain Finance
  • Financial Planning & Analysis
  • Controllership & Accounting
  • Cash Management / Shared Services Finance

Your rotational journey will be purposeful rather than predetermined. Future assignments will consider your experience, demonstrated strengths, development needs, and career interests, balanced with the value creation opportunities of the business. With each rotation, you’ll take on increasing responsibility, develop new capabilities, and gain exposure to different areas of the organization.

Responsibilities

Responsibilities will evolve throughout the program and vary by rotation. You may:

  • Support budgeting, forecasting, long-range planning, and performance management.
  • Analyze financial and operational results to identify trends, risks, and opportunities.
  • Build financial models and perform profitability, variance, and KPI analysis.
  • Translate financial information into actionable business insights.
  • Partner with Operations, Commercial, Supply Chain, and functional leaders to support decision-making.
  • Gain experience with financial reporting, close activities, reconciliations, controls, and accounting processes.
  • Contribute to cross-functional initiatives focused on growth, productivity, cost optimization, and continuous improvement.
  • Identify opportunities to improve reporting, automate processes, and leverage data, business intelligence, and emerging technologies.
  • Present insights and recommendations to Finance and business leaders.
  • Take on increasing ownership and responsibility as you progress through the program.

Development & Support

Your development extends beyond your day-to-day responsibilities.

  • Mentorship & Coaching: Receive ongoing guidance from a dedicated mentor, rotational leaders, and Finance leadership.
  • Individual Development Planning: Create an Individual Development Plan that evolves as your experience, capabilities, and career interests develop.
  • Leadership Exposure: Build relationships with senior leaders and gain insight into how decisions are made across the organization.
  • Enterprise Experience: Expand your understanding of Broan-NuTone through cross-functional experiences and exposure beyond your immediate Finance assignment.
  • Continuous Feedback: Participate in structured check-ins and development conversations to ensure you remain challenged, supported, and progressing toward your goals.
  • Meaningful Work: Contribute to business priorities from the beginning, with increasing responsibility throughout the program.

What You'll Build

The program is designed to develop capabilities across three areas:

  • Finance & Technical Expertise: Financial planning and analysis, forecasting and budgeting, financial modeling, reporting, cost accounting fundamentals, and data analytics and visualization.
  • Business Acumen: Business partnership, operational understanding, commercial insights, strategic thinking, decision support, and cross-functional collaboration.
  • Leadership Capability: Executive communication, influence, project leadership, adaptability, learning agility, and relationship building.

Requirements

You may be a strong fit if you are a high-performing Finance professional who:

  • Is curious about how different areas of Finance and the business work together.
  • Wants to be challenged and continue learning.
  • Can step into unfamiliar situations and quickly build knowledge and relationships.
  • Combines strong analytical skills with the ability to translate numbers into business insights.
  • Wants to strengthen your ability to communicate, influence, and lead.
  • Is motivated by gaining broad experience rather than specializing in a single Finance discipline at this stage of your career.

Qualifications

  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, or a related business field.
  • 2–4 years of relevant professional experience in Finance, Accounting, Audit, FP&A, Operations Finance, or a related discipline.
  • Strong understanding of financial statements and foundational Finance and Accounting concepts.
  • Strong analytical, problem-solving, and critical-thinking skills.
  • Strong written, verbal, and presentation communication skills.
  • Demonstrated learning agility and commitment to continuous improvement.
  • Advanced Microsoft Excel skills.
  • Ability to work in the United States without current or future employment sponsorship.

Future Opportunities

The goal of the Finance Leadership Development Program is not simply to complete three rotations. It is to prepare you for increasingly complex and influential opportunities within Finance. Upon successful completion, you will have developed broad Finance and Accounting expertise, stronger business acumen, expanded leadership capabilities, and relationships across the organization.

Depending on your experience, performance, interests, and organizational opportunities, future career paths may include:

  • Senior Financial Analyst
  • Lead Financial Analyst
  • Finance Manager
  • FP&A Manager
  • Operations Finance Manager
  • Commercial Finance Manager

Participation in the program does not guarantee promotion or placement into a specific position but is designed to accelerate readiness for future opportunities.
