The position is best suited for someone who enjoys solving unclear problems, building processes from the ground up, and supporting decisions that influence the direction of a fast-moving business.

• Perform ad hoc analysis for new initiatives, business cases, and changes in operating direction.

What We’re Looking For

• At least 4 years of experience in strategic planning, preferably in a high-growth or consumer-focused business; early exposure to investment banking and/or consulting is a strong plus.
• Hands-on experience managing financial planning processes in fast-changing, dynamic environments.
• Strong financial modeling and analytical capability, with the ability to turn complex data into practical recommendations.
• Proven success working across teams and influencing stakeholders at multiple levels, including senior leaders.
• Clear communication skills and the ability to explain financial topics in simple terms to non-finance audiences.
• Comfort with ambiguity and the ability to create structure in evolving situations.
• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, Accounting, or a closely related discipline.
