Manager, Financial Strategy & Analytics

Responsibilities

• Respond to inbound analytical requests from the ELT and Board, scoping, prioritizing, and delivering high-quality financial analysis under tight timelines and with limited direction.
• Build financial models and scenario analyses covering a range of strategic topics including organic growth sensitivities, capital allocation trade-offs, investment cases, cost structure scenarios, and other ad hoc requests.
• Integrate internal financial data with external market intelligence — including S&P Global and other research tools — to provide competitive benchmarking, industry context, and market sizing that enriches financial analysis.
• Partner with FP&A's Revenue & Commission Insights and Expense Management functions to pull functional inputs into enterprise-level scenario frameworks, ensuring analytical outputs reflect accurate underlying assumptions.
• Support finance-wide initiatives, for example policy development, to ensure alignment with FP&A requirements and translate them back into FP&A processes.
• Own the enterprise long-range model, conducting a full refresh annually and leveraging it throughout the year for scenario planning across new investments or initiatives and evolving assumptions.
• Translate complex financial models and analytical findings into executive-ready PowerPoint presentations — structuring content to lead with insight, support with data, and drive toward a clear recommendation or decision point.
• Prepare CFO-ready briefing materials that anticipate questions, surface key risks and sensitivities, and present a well-reasoned point of view — not just a summary of the data.
• Maintain a high standard of accuracy, clarity, and visual quality across all deliverables, with the discipline to self-review and pressure-test conclusions before escalation.
• Apply structured, hypothesis-driven thinking to ambiguous or open-ended questions — breaking down complex problems, identifying the right analytical approach, and delivering a clear answer rather than a data dump.
• Bring market awareness and external perspective to internal financial questions, drawing on industry trends, competitor dynamics, and macroeconomic context to enrich scenario analysis and strategic recommendations.
• Proactively identify analytical gaps, data quality issues, or unstated assumptions that could affect the integrity of the analysis, and resolve or escalate them before final delivery.
• Leverage improved data access and modeling infrastructure to accelerate the speed and depth of strategic analysis as FP&A's self-service analytical tools mature.

Requirements

• Strong financial modeling skills, including scenario analysis, sensitivity analysis, and investment case development — with the ability to build models independently from a blank page.
• Exceptional PowerPoint and executive communication skills, with the ability to structure a compelling narrative, distill complex analysis into clear visuals, and anticipate the questions a senior audience will ask.
• Proven ability to work independently on ambiguous, high-priority requests — managing scope, timeline, and quality without close supervision.
• High analytical rigor and intellectual curiosity — comfortable forming and defending a point of view, not just presenting options.
• Strong interpersonal skills and executive presence, with the ability to communicate complex findings clearly and confidently to senior finance leadership.

Qualifications

• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Economics, Accounting, or a related quantitative field.
• 5–8 years of experience in strategy consulting, investment banking, strategic finance, or corporate FP&A, with a demonstrated track record of producing high-quality financial analysis and executive-level materials.
• Experience integrating external market data and research (e.g., S&P Global, industry databases) with internal financial data to produce market-contextualized analysis.
