Key Responsibilities
- Maintain and update the rolling P&L forecast on a monthly cadence, including roll-forward of future periods and refresh of underlying assumptions.
- Drive the annual budget process — collect and validate inputs from department heads, consolidate, and model scenarios for leadership review.
- Use AI-assisted tools and workflows across forecasting, scenario modeling, variance analysis, and assumption refresh — AI fluency is a baseline expectation.
- Build and maintain financial models for forecasting, scenario analysis, and variance reporting.
- Update headcount, opex, and capex assumptions; reflect changes in financial outputs and surface meaningful drift to the Accounting Manager.
- Document forecast methodology and assumptions to keep the model auditable and transferable.
- Prepare monthly budget-to-actual variance analysis with clear supporting commentary explaining drivers, not just numbers — leveraging AI-assisted analysis to identify root causes and surface meaningful patterns.
- Build and maintain KPI dashboards and management reporting; ensure timely, accurate, and consistent delivery.
- Surface trends, variances, and anomalies in the data with context and recommended next steps for leadership.
- Partner with department heads to explain results vs. budget and forecast and provide analytical support for their decisions.

- Provide ROI and cost-impact analysis on proposed initiatives; translate financial outcomes into business language.
- Support cross-functional projects requiring financial analysis, scenario modeling, or business case development.
- Maintain models, workpapers, and documentation to professional standards; ensure outputs are auditable and transferable.
- Drive system and process improvements through AI-assisted automation and AI agent development — identify and ship AI-enabled improvements to recurring workflows as a baseline expectation.
- Build NetSuite saved searches and ad hoc reports independently as analytical needs arise.
- Document SOPs for recurring deliverables; help scale repeatable analytical work as the team grows.
