Financial Analyst/Manager

A manufacturing organization is seeking a Financial Analyst to support the Group Controller in overseeing financial reporting, forecasting, accounting practices, and financial processes across multiple business operations in North America and Europe.

 

This is a review, oversight, and analysis-focused role rather than a transactional accounting position. The Financial Analyst will oversee the financial reporting and month-end processes for approximately 10 business groups, each representing businesses with significant revenue, ensuring financial results are accurate, balanced, appropriately reported, and consistent with GAAP and corporate policies.

The ideal candidate is an accounting-oriented finance professional who understands how financial statements should come together, can identify unusual trends and variances, and is comfortable working with multiple operating groups and serving as a resource on accounting and reporting questions.

 

Key Responsibilities

• Review financial statements, forecasts, and accounting activity across approximately 10 business operations in North America and Europe.
• Oversee the month-end reporting process for assigned business groups, ensuring financial results are complete, accurate, and reasonable.
• Review financial results and investigate unusual variances, inconsistencies, or discrepancies.
• Oversee and review intercompany transactions and ensure appropriate accounting and reporting.
• Serve as a resource to operating teams regarding accounting treatment, transaction classification, and application of GAAP.
• Ensure financial reporting is consistent with established accounting principles, corporate policies, and internal procedures.
• Follow up with business units throughout the month-end process to ensure reporting requirements and deadlines are met.
• Review and document financial controls and processes and identify opportunities to strengthen accounting and reporting practices.
• Support the forecasting process by coordinating submissions, monitoring deadlines, and reviewing information for reasonableness and consistency.
• Analyze financial data and aggregate information from multiple operations to identify trends, opportunities, and best practices.
• Assist with the review of financial reporting and accounting processes as part of ongoing process oversight and internal controls.
• Support the Group Controller and Group General Manager with special projects, financial analysis, and other strategic initiatives as needed.

What You’ll Do

This position provides a broad view of the financial operations of multiple businesses. Rather than performing journal entries or owning the day-to-day close, you will be responsible for reviewing and overseeing the process and making sure the numbers and accounting make sense.

 

You will work closely with accounting and finance teams across multiple locations, asking questions, identifying variances, resolving accounting issues, and ensuring that financial information is reported accurately and consistently. The role is ideal for someone who enjoys understanding the “why” behind the numbers and improving the processes that produce them.
