About the Opportunity

A fast-growing U.S.-based financial consulting firm is seeking a Financial Analyst & Reporting Specialist to support its Fractional CFO services division. This role is ideal for someone with a strong background in financial forecasting, modeling, reporting, and business analysis who enjoys turning data into actionable insights.

The company partners primarily with 7- and 8-figure service-based businesses across industries such as beauty, med spa, interior design, and related sectors. The selected candidate will play a key role in helping clients improve financial visibility, optimize performance, and make strategic business decisions.

This is a highly collaborative and proactive role that combines financial analysis, reporting oversight, and strategic support. Candidates must be comfortable working during U.S. business hours.
