  • Prior people management experience, with the ability to set direction, review detailed analytical work, develop talent, and hold the team accountable to high-quality outputs and deadlines
  • Strong understanding of accounting concepts and how income statement, balance sheet, cash flow, revenue, capitalization, and cost classification decisions affect forecasts and business analysis
  • Advanced Excel and financial modeling skills required; strong PowerPoint and executive communication skills expected
  • Strong analytical judgment, attention to detail, and executive communication skills, with the ability to identify key business drivers and translate complex analysis into clear narratives for senior leadership, Board, investor, and cross-functional audiences
  • BS/BA in Finance, Economics, or a related field; MBA and/or CFA a plus
