Senior Financial Analyst POST NUMBER: 466510
Financial Analyst (Full-Time, On-Site)
Location: Birmingham, AL
Our client is seeking a Financial Analyst to support budgeting, forecasting, and financial analysis for a complex organization with multiple departments and projects. This role is best suited for someone who enjoys working with real data, understanding cost drivers, and clearly explaining financial results to non-finance leaders.
What You’ll Do
Support annual budget development and ongoing forecasting for departments and projects
Prepare monthly budget vs. actual variance analyses and identify key drivers
Analyze cost projections and financial trends to support planning and decision-making
Consolidate financial information for management reporting
Partner with managers to answer questions, explain results, and provide financial guidance
Ensure financial activity aligns with internal controls and accounting policies
Participate in special projects requiring data gathering, analysis, and clear communication
What We’re Looking For
Bachelor’s degree in Accounting or Finance
1–4 years of experience in financial analysis, accounting, or budgeting roles
Strong Excel skills and comfort working with large data sets
Ability to explain financial results in plain language
Detail-oriented, organized, and able to manage multiple priorities
Comfortable asking questions, digging into variances, and following items through to completion
Who This Role Is (and Isn’t) For
This role is a great fit for someone who enjoys:
Hands-on analysis rather than purely theoretical work
Owning recurring reporting and improving it over time
Working closely with managers outside of finance
This role may not be a fit for someone seeking a purely academic, research-only, or highly automated reporting position.
