· Use collaboration tools such as Slack and Google Workspace (Sheets, Docs, Slides)

 

 

Qualifications

· Bachelor’s degree in finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field

· 2–5 years of relevant experience in FP& A or a finance-related role

· Strong Excel skills (e.g., financial modeling, advanced formulas, pivot tables)

· Proven ability to learn quickly and contribute in a fast-paced environment

· Excellent communication and interpersonal skills

· Strong analytical and problem-solving capabilities

· Background or strong interest in the financial services industry
