  • Plan and conduct training sessions for users.
  • Document the planning models and reporting delivered to clients.
  • Ensure rapid time to value by delivering engagements on time and within budget.
  • Communicate regularly, concisely, and clearly with clients to set expectations and ensure client success.
  • Provide general customer service and assistance to clients and serve as the go-to resource on all project-related inquiries.
  • Collaborate internally to share learnings and problems solved.

Experience & Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Finance or Accounting or Business mandatory.
  • 5+ years' experience in accounting / financial management – particularly budgeting and planning and management reporting – preferred.
  • 2–4 years' experience implementing at least one Enterprise Performance Management (EPM) system (e.g., Adaptive Planning, Host Analytics, Anaplan, Oracle Hyperion) preferred.
  • Advanced or expert proficiency in Excel, in particular designing and building complex financial planning models.
  • Excellent written and verbal communication skills.
  • Aptitude for learning new technologies.
  • Excellent analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to handle a variety of different projects simultaneously and manage multiple deadlines.
  • Organized, thorough, process-driven.
