Sr. Financial Analyst

Why This Role

If you love digging into the "why" behind the numbers — not just closing the books, but explaining what's actually driving revenue and margin — this is built for you. You'd own a meaningful slice of the finance function at a mid-size, PE-backed consumer electronics company that's actively investing in rebuilding its financial reporting and operational discipline. This isn't a narrow reporting seat: you'd have direct visibility with FP&A leadership and a real hand in shaping how the business understands its own profitability.

You will work closely with global teams to ensure accurate allocation of revenue and cost, assess their impact on gross margin, and provide actionable insights to improve profitability.
