EFC International is building out its FP&A function, and this role sits at the center of that build. The Senior Financial Analyst will own the company's end-to-end margin picture — from pricing program execution and cost standards management through to weekly and monthly reporting delivered to leadership. This is a high-visibility, high-ownership role on a lean two-person FP&A team, working directly with and reporting to the FP&A Director.

 

The right candidate is a self-starter who brings analytical rigor, process discipline, and the curiosity to understand the business behind the numbers. Over time, this person will grow into a cross-functional business partner — participating directly in pricing conversations, cost reviews, and operational discussions alongside the FP&A Director.

 

Key Responsibilities:

Margin Reporting:

  • Own and deliver the weekly margin flash report — on time, clean, and commentary-ready 
  • Own the monthly margin package, including variance analysis, trend narrative, and business unit breakdowns
  • Produce ad hoc margin analyses as requested by FP&A Director or CFO
  • Maintain and improve the reporting infrastructure so the cadence runs without requiring director initiation

Pricing Program Tracking:

  • Track and report on pricing program performance metrics across the portfolio
  • Monitor price realization vs. targets and flag deviations early
  • Support pricing training initiatives by maintaining program documentation and data inputs
  • Partner with the commercial team (alongside the FP&A Director) on pricing decisions and analysis

Cost Standards & Monitoring:

  • Own cost standard maintenance within ERPs/systems of record — ensuring standards are accurate and current
  • Monitor cost changes over time, flag meaningful variances, and explain drivers
  • Build and maintain cost trend reporting that gives leadership visibility into input cost movements
  • Collaborate with operations and procurement to understand and validate cost inputs

FP&A Operations:

  • Support the monthly close process by providing timely margin data and commentary
  • Support the build-out of EFC’s margin forecasting process, including developing the analytical framework and tools that will drive forward-looking margin visibility
  • Assist in building out FP&A infrastructure as the function matures
  • Contribute to forecast and budget cycles by providing margin-layer inputs

Required Qualifications:

•    3-5+ years of FP&A, finance, or analytical experience
•    Demonstrated experience owning reporting processes end-to-end
•    Strong Excel/financial modeling skills
•    Comfort working with cost data, margin structures, or P&L analysis
•    Detail-oriented with a bias for accuracy and clean process
•    Able to work independently and manage multiple deliverables
•    Strong communicator — written and verbal

Preferred Qualifications:

•    Experience in distribution, manufacturing, or industrial businesses
•    Familiarity with ERPs and cost standard management
•    Exposure to pricing analytics or commercial finance
•    Experience in a lean FP&A team or high-ownership environment
•    Power BI, Tableau, or other data visualization experience
•    Background supporting or presenting to senior leadership
