Job Description



Ready to step beyond traditional reporting and become a true business partner? This Lead Financial Analyst opportunity offers direct exposure to executive leadership, significant visibility across the organization, and the chance to influence operational performance through data-driven decision making.


If you're experienced in manufacturing analytics, Power BI, and financial analysis, this Lead Financial Analyst role provides a unique platform to make a measurable impact while positioning yourself for long-term career growth.

Lead Financial Analyst


Salary: $70,000-$90,000
Location: 100% on-site role open to candidates within a reasonable commute range of company headquarters.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out:



  • Join a growing organization undergoing a leadership transformation with significant investments in operational improvement.

  • Work directly with executive leadership, including the EVP of Operations, while maintaining strong visibility with Finance leadership.

  • Make a meaningful impact in a newly elevated Lead Financial Analyst role that offers autonomy and influence.

  • Gain exposure to advanced operational analytics, OEE reporting, Power BI initiatives, and enterprise-level decision making.

  • Partner with leaders across manufacturing, operations, finance, and business planning rather than being confined to traditional financial reporting.

  • Help shape reporting, dashboards, KPIs, and analytics strategies as the organization expands its data-driven culture.

  • Be part of a company known for employee retention, internal promotions, and long-term career development opportunities.

  • Contribute to high-profile operational and capital investment projects that directly affect profitability and business performance.

  • Build a long-term career path with advancement opportunities beyond the Senior Financial Analyst position.


Key Responsibilities for the Lead Financial Analyst:



  • Lead budgeting, forecasting, capacity planning, and performance analysis activities.

  • Develop and maintain Power BI dashboards, analytics tools, and operational reporting solutions.

  • Analyze financial performance, capital projects, investments, and business initiatives to improve profitability.

  • Partner with operational leaders to identify reporting opportunities and meaningful performance metrics.

  • Present financial insights, variance analysis, risks, trends, and recommendations to leadership teams.

  • Collaborate with business and IT stakeholders to create scalable reporting, automation, and analytics solutions.


Qualifications for the Lead Financial Analyst:



  • Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Business Analytics, Information Systems, Data Analytics, or related field.

  • 5+ years of financial analysis, analytics, or business partnering experience in a manufacturing environment.

  • Strong Power BI experience with a proven ability to build reporting and data visualization solutions.

  • Experience with ERP systems; SAP experience is highly preferred.


The Lead Financial Analyst role is ideal for someone who enjoys connecting financial results to operational performance. The Lead Financial Analyst will have the opportunity to influence strategy, improve processes, and drive business results through analytics. For professionals looking to move beyond transactional finance work, the Lead Financial Analyst position offers outstanding visibility, executive interaction, and long-term advancement potential. This Lead Financial Analyst opportunity is designed for a self-starter who wants to leave a lasting impact and grow into larger leadership opportunities over time.
