We are seeking experienced analysts with 3+ years in FP&A, revenue analytics, commercial finance, or business intelligence, with advanced spreadsheet modeling and data reconciliation skills.

Strong candidates can reconcile data across finance, sales, and campaign systems, and carefully distinguish booked, billed, recognized, and collected revenue.

Ideal candidates have experience at one or more of the following types of business:

• Media or ad-tech

• Documenting assumptions and catching data anomalies before they reach leadership

You'll help create, review, and evaluate high-quality revenue planning scenarios, leveraging your experience in forecasting, variance analysis, and commercial reporting.
