Remote Financial Analyst (Minnesota)
Transform Market Turbulence into Opportunity: Your Impact as a Remote Financial Analyst
Behind every smart business move lies a Financial Analyst who didn’t just crunch the numbers—they saw the story, spotted the risk, and showed a better way forward. If you’re the kind of person who brings both curiosity and rigor to every spreadsheet, you’ll thrive here. Our team believes that remote work isn’t about being distant—it’s about staying connected to what matters, delivering insights that shape decisions, and building a finance culture that’s as agile as it is meticulous.
What Makes This Remote Financial Analyst Role Unique
Data-Driven Decisions Are at the Heart of Our Strategy
Here, data isn’t just an afterthought—it’s the heartbeat of every plan and pivot. You’ll drive forecasting that helps us navigate change, deliver financial modeling that guides investment decisions, and offer actionable insights that empower leaders at every level. The freedom of remote work means you can focus deeply, finding clarity in complexity, and championing outcomes that move the business—and your career—forward.
Key Responsibilities and Business Outcomes
Shape Financial Clarity and Confidence
- Illuminate the path forward. Your forecasting will give leaders the clarity to plan next steps, allocate resources, and drive the business with confidence—even when the landscape shifts.
- Transform data into actionable narratives. You’ll dig beyond the surface, turning spreadsheets into stories that spark conversations in strategy meetings and inform every big bet we make.
- Connect the dots between teams. Partner with product, sales, and operations leaders—bridging silos and making sure everyone is speaking the same financial language.
- Spot trends before they become headlines. Your analysis will go deeper than last month’s variance. You’ll uncover risks, surface new revenue opportunities, and shape the priorities that define our roadmap.
- Champion best-in-class financial hygiene. Help us maintain rigorous standards, improve our remote reporting workflow, and ensure compliance—so no detail gets missed, even in a distributed setup.
What You’ll Own as a Financial Analyst
Core Areas of Ownership
- Monthly, quarterly, and annual budgeting: Your projections won’t just predict the future—they’ll shape it. Guide budget owners in setting ambitious but achievable goals, tracking progress, and making real-time adjustments.
- Financial modeling: Build robust models to evaluate investments, new product launches, and strategic partnerships. Your numbers will be the foundation for high-stakes decisions.
- Performance analysis: Provide insight into what’s working (and what isn’t) with in-depth reporting that empowers teams to double down on wins and pivot from what’s not delivering.
- Executive-ready presentations: Whether it’s a board meeting or a quick Slack huddle, you’ll distill the complex into the memorable—helping leaders see both the details and the big picture.
- Continuous improvement: You’ll streamline remote financial workflows, automate reporting where possible, and suggest tools or process tweaks that help everyone focus on what matters most.
Remote Tools, Technology, and Collaboration Environment
Modern Platforms and Financial Systems
- Collaboration platforms: Slack, Zoom, and Asana for seamless communication and project tracking—whether you’re leading a meeting or offering quick-fire analysis to the executive team.
- Financial software: You’ll leverage advanced Excel/Google Sheets, and experience with ERP systems (like NetSuite or SAP) will make you even more impactful.
- Data visualization: Utilize tools like Tableau, Power BI, or similar solutions to bring your insights to life, making data accessible to everyone.
- Cloud-based document management: Google Workspace, Notion, and other remote collaboration tools ensure you’re always working from the latest, most secure file.
Remote Work Culture and Professional Development
Our All-Remote Financial Team Environment
We move quickly, but you’ll always have space to focus deeply and do your best work. Our all-remote setup means less commuting, more time for what inspires you, and true flexibility—without sacrificing high standards or strong connections. Expect transparency, regular feedback, and a leadership team that genuinely values your ideas. We trust our analysts to drive meaningful change—not just follow checklists.
Professional Growth and Leadership Opportunities
This isn’t just another remote job; it’s a chance to influence big decisions from your own workspace. You’ll have the autonomy to lead, the support to develop new skills, and the visibility to grow into broader roles as you help shape our financial future. We celebrate those who go beyond their job title, mentor peers, and drive new solutions.
