Full Job Description

Who You Are:

You are an energetic, collaborative, and organized team player with strong communication skills and a drive to deliver results. You thrive in a fast-paced, evolving environment and are excited to learn, grow, and take on new challenges. While you may be early in your career, you bring a strong work ethic, intellectual curiosity, and a willingness to dig into the details.

You ask thoughtful questions, take initiative, and approach every assignment with a willingness to learn—whether analyzing numbers, building reports, or supporting team projects. You are eager to develop your skills, understand the “why” behind the work, and contribute to a high-performing finance team.

What You’ll Do:

  • Prepare and update monthly financial reports to support internal finance reviews and team presentations
  • Assist with budget vs. actual variance analysis across departments to identify key drivers of performance
  • Support month-end and quarter-end close processes, including account reconciliations
  • Help maintain financial models for forecasting, budgeting, and strategic planning initiatives
  • Conduct ad hoc financial analyses to support decision-making across the internal finance team
  • Compile data from multiple systems (e.g., SAP, payroll, BI tools) to ensure accuracy and completeness
  • Support financial audits by gathering documentation and responding to auditor requests
  • Support cross-functional finance projects through data gathering, report preparation, and follow-up on key deliverables

You’ll Need to Have:

  • Bachelor's degree in Finance or Accounting
  • 1+ years of work experience in a finance organization or relevant internship experience
  • Strong proficiency in Excel

We’d Love to See:

  • Enthusiasm for learning and applying AI tools to enhance financial reporting, analysis, and process efficiency
  • Positive attitude, intellectual curiosity, results-driven mindset, and ability to thrive in a fast-paced, dynamic environment
  • Strong communication, analytical, critical-thinking, and presentation skills
  • Self-starter who is well organized and able to manage multiple projects under strict deadlines
  • High degree of accuracy with a strong attention to detail
