Who we are:

Partner with the Accounting team to understand the nature and details of cash transactions passing through the company’s bank accounts, to ensure accurate reflection and timing assumptions in cash forecasts.

Utilize SQL queries to mine and analyze data from tables in the enterprise data warehouse, in search of improvements/efficiencies for cash forecasting or other finance processes.

Advanced Excel skills required, and additional data skills (SQL queries; Looker/Tableau/PowerBI visualization tools) are a plus.

Bachelors degree in Finance, Economics, Accounting or similar quantitative discipline.

What will make you stand out:

Understanding of, and experience working with, the nuances between ongoing daily cash transactions vs. periodic accrual-based financial reporting/planning.

Prior knowledge of SQL query coding and data visualization tools (specifically Looker).
