  • Develop reporting on revenue, gross margin, EBITDA, working capital, cash conversion, and other key performance indicators.
  • Prepare clear management, board, lender, and investor reporting packages, as needed.
  • Analyze adjusted EBITDA and potential add-backs, maintaining clear support and distinguishing recurring performance from one-time items.

  • Evaluate pricing, product and service profitability, customer performance, and opportunities to improve margins.
  • Perform scenario and sensitivity analyses to assess growth opportunities, project risks, staffing needs, and capital investments.

  • Track the financial impact of cost savings initiatives and other value creation priorities.
  • Improve reporting tools, automate recurring analysis, and strengthen the consistency and reliability of financial data.

Qualifications
  • Bachelor’s degree in finance, accounting, economics, or a related field.
  • Five or more years of experience in FP&A, corporate finance, transaction advisory, investment banking, or a related analytical role.
  • Demonstrated exposure to private equity through a portfolio company, investor reporting, transaction work, or direct investment experience.
  • Advanced Excel and financial modeling skills, including the ability to build models independently.
  • Strong understanding of financial statements, EBITDA, working capital, cash flow, and the relationship between operating performance and enterprise value.
  • Experience in engineering, manufacturing, industrial services, equipment, or another project-based business preferred.
  • Ability to evaluate large or incomplete data sets, identify meaningful trends, and communicate practical conclusions.
  • Experience with ERP systems and business intelligence tools such as Power BI preferred.
