Senior Financial Analyst POST NUMBER: 466510

Birmingham, AL

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.

Determining compensation for this role (and others) at Vaco/Highspring depends upon a wide array of factors including but not limited to the individual’s skill sets, experience and training, licensure and certifications, office location and other geographic considerations, as well as other business and organizational needs. With that said, as required by local law in geographies that require salary range disclosure, Vaco/Highspring notes the salary range for the role is noted in this job posting. The individual may also be eligible for discretionary bonuses, and can participate in medical, dental, and vision benefits as well as the company’s 401(k) retirement plan. Additional disclaimer: Unless otherwise noted in the job description, the position Vaco/Highspring is filing for is occupied. Please note, however, that Vaco/Highspring is regularly asked to provide talent to other organizations. By submitting to this position, you are agreeing to be included in our talent pool for future hiring for similarly qualified positions.
