Full description
We are a multi-entity health system operating hospitals, surgical facilities, and physician groups across
multiple states. We are looking for a Senior Financial Analyst to join our FP&A team and serve as a right hand
to the Director of FP&A. This is a high-visibility role that touches entity-level reporting, financial modeling,
acquisition analysis, and strategic finance work that reaches the CFO and executive team.
The right person is equal parts analyst and builder: someone who can turn messy source data into a clean
model, defend the numbers in front of leadership, and spot the story the variance is telling before anyone
asks. Healthcare experience is a plus, but we care more about strong financial fundamentals, modeling
discipline, and intellectual curiosity. If you can build a model you'd stake your name on, we can teach you the healthcare context.
What You'll Do
- Own recurring entity-level and consolidated reporting across the portfolio — monthly close packages,
variance analysis, and management reporting — and explain the why behind the numbers, not just the
what.
- Build and maintain financial models: operating forecasts, service-line P&Ls, acquisition proformas, and
ad hoc analyses supporting strategic decisions.
- Prepare CFO- and executive-facing deliverables — variance memos, board materials, and financing
packages — that are clean, accurate, and decision-ready.
- Partner with operational and accounting teams to reconcile financial and operational data, investigate
discrepancies, and improve the integrity of the numbers upstream.
- Support the annual budget and periodic reforecast cycles, including building templates, consolidating
inputs, and pressure-testing assumptions.
- Pull, transform, and analyze data from multiple systems (GL, clinical/revenue, and data warehouse
sources) and help make those pipelines more repeatable.
- Contribute to acquisition and corporate-development analysis — diligence support, integration
modeling, and return analysis.
- Continuously improve how the team works: better templates, cleaner data flows, and smart use of
automation and tooling.
What We're Looking For
Required
- Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field.
- 3+ years of progressive experience in FP&A, corporate finance, accounting, or a comparable analytical
finance role.
- Advanced Excel and financial modeling skills — you can build a three-statement or driver-based model
from a blank sheet and keep it auditable.
- Strong command of financial statements and the ability to translate operational activity into financial
results.
- Excellent attention to detail paired with the judgment to know which details matter.
- Clear written and verbal communication; you can distill a complex analysis into a one-page memo an
executive can act on.
- Comfort working with large, imperfect datasets and reconciling across multiple source systems.
Preferred (Nice to Have)
- Experience in healthcare finance — hospitals, ambulatory/surgical, physician groups, or payor/provider
economics.
- Familiarity with ERP and reporting platforms (e.g., Sage Intacct or similar), clinical/revenue-cycle
reporting tools, and a cloud data warehouse (e.g., Snowflake).
- Exposure to SQL, Python, or BI tools for data extraction and analysis.
- Experience with analysis, proforma modeling, or multi-entity consolidations.
- CPA, CFA, or MBA (in progress or completed) is a plus, not a requirement.
Who Thrives Here
You're someone who takes ownership without being asked twice, who is bothered when a number doesn't
tie, and who would rather ask a sharp question than nod along. You're at ease in a fast-moving environment
where priorities shift, and you see ambiguity as a place to add value rather than a reason to wait for
instructions.
