  • Serve as a data expert, leveraging Tableau to build automated, meaningful, and digestible reports and dashboards that provide real-time insights to business partners.

  • Utilize advanced financial modeling and analysis to evaluate strategic investments and provide recommendations that drive optimal returns.

  • Proactively identify and drive process improvement and standardization across the Finance and Strategy organization.

  • High degree of comfort with ambiguity and an ability to effectively multi-task in a fast-paced, quickly changing environment

  • Ability to work cross-functionally and influence at all levels within the organization

  • Expertise in Microsoft Excel is essential, with a strong preference for proficiency in data analysis and modeling

  • Good communication skills (written and verbal) with an ability to explain complex issues in an understandable way

  • Intellectual curiosity, fueled by a proactive approach to continuously expand one’s skillset
