Financial Analyst Jobs

Randstad is actively assisting a long time client with its search for a Financial Analyst in Charlotte, NC (specifically Huntersville, NC). Our client is a well established and profitable organization with a strong track record of employee development and retention. They are offering competitive compensation, and looking to hire quickly.

The team is looking to bring in a candidate with experience doing analysis of current/future financials, margin analysis, profitability analysis, and other financial analytics models.

• The team is looking for someone that has some basic accounting work experience such as debits & credits journal entries and general ledger account reconciliations. While they aren’t hiring for an accountant there are some accounting responsibilities.
• They are looking for someone that, ideally, has start to finish experience individually building reporting dashboards, etc. The candidate must have experience working with Tableau or other dashboard tools, with an emphasis on the ability to create and develop these dashboards.

That being said, if the candidate has a strong financial accounting background, experience doing reconciliations work, and can handle financial analytics work, they would be open to this background as well.

• Assist with creating and running report views for the Aftermarket Sales and Product Managers.
• If the candidate comes from a manufacturing setting, that could be ideal, but is definitely not needed.
• Compile monthly financial packages for the Sales and Product Group business partners.
• Host monthly financial reviews with key business partners and stakeholders.
• Complete P&L analysis and ending inventory reports to support the Monthly Operations Review (MOR) presentation and monthly Treasury requests.
