Job Description
We are looking for a Sr. Financial Analyst to join a growing organization in Canton, Massachusetts on a Contract basis. This role will support both financial planning and core analytical activities in a fast-moving, less structured environment where strong judgment and initiative are essential. The position will play a key part in budgeting, reporting, and long-range modeling while helping leadership improve visibility into operating performance. Candidates who are comfortable building processes, communicating insights clearly, and partnering with technical teams will be well suited for this opportunity.
Responsibilities:
- Develop and maintain detailed financial models, including integrated income statement, balance sheet, and cash flow forecasts, to support near-term objectives and a multi-year business plan.
- Prepare a two-year budget for leadership review and board-level planning, with particular focus on headcount-driven spending and research-related investments.
- Produce monthly, departmental, and board reporting packages that translate financial results into clear business insights and actionable recommendations.
- Analyze variances across actuals, forecasts, and budgets, identifying key drivers and highlighting risks, opportunities, and performance trends.
- Improve the efficiency of month-end financial reporting by reducing manual effort and introducing more streamlined, repeatable processes.
- Partner with accounting support resources and internal stakeholders to ensure accurate financial data and continuity of knowledge as responsibilities transition.
- Work closely with teams in a predominantly engineering-focused organization to evaluate operating needs and provide decision support for growth planning.
- Perform ad hoc financial analysis and data-driven assessments to support leadership decisions in a dynamic startup-style setting.
