2 weeks ago
**Job Summary**: The Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A) Specialist is responsible for driving financial performance through analysis, forecasting, and strategic planning. This role involves preparing financial reports, conducting variance analysis, and collaborating with various departments to provide actionable financial insights that align with the company’s business objectives. The FP&A Specialist works closely with the Director of Finance and Accounting Manager to ensure seamless integration of financial data for accurate reporting and analysis.

**Humble **- Employees that are team players and are respectful of others and the job at hand. Great team players lack excessive ego or concerns about status. Humble employees are quick to point out contributions of others and slow to seek attention of their own.

**Solutions Oriented** - Employees who focus on solving, and preventing problems from occurring, not just identifying them. This is equal parts of problems with systems and processes and the common sense that an employee has about people. They are aware, act appropriately, ask good questions, and listen to understand.
