FP&A Analyst

About the role

We need an analyst who can start from a blank workbook and build what the business needs, whether that’s a project model, a financing analysis, a board deck, or a monthly forecast. There’s no template library and no larger team to hand pieces off to. You’ll work directly with the Director of FP&A and the executive team, and investors, lenders, and the board will see your work.

If you’ve spent the last few years owning one piece of a large company’s planning process and want to own the whole thing, this role is for you.

What you'll do

Build and maintain financial models, including facility and project economics, capital budgets, operating forecasts, and three-statement company models. Support capital raising investor and lender materials, due diligence requests, cap table and convertible note schedules, and financing scenario analysis. Build the company’s budgeting, forecasting, and monthly reporting process as operations ramp up, including KPIs, variance analysis, and management reporting.

Track capital spending against budget and forecast cash runway and liquidity. Prepare analysis and supporting figures for government funding applications, board materials, and strategic decisions (expansion, pricing, contracts, vendor selection). Work with the Controller to tie Net. Suite actuals to the forecast and build reporting that doesn’t have to be rebuilt by hand every month.

Required Qualifications Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field. 2–5 years in FP&A, corporate finance, investment banking, project finance, transaction advisory, or a similar analytical role. Advanced Excel: clean model structure, scenario and sensitivity analysis, and models that someone else can follow and audit.

Comfortable working with incomplete data, shifting priorities, and questions that have no ready-made answer. Clear writing and communication, including the ability to explain what a model shows to executives and investors without walking them through every tab.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience at an early-stage, high-growth, or capital-intensive company (mining, metals, energy, manufacturing, or infrastructure). Experience with Net. Suite, Power BI, or similar tools for pulling and shaping data. Is This a Fit? This probably isn’t the right role if you prefer a narrowly defined scope, established processes, and a large team.

It is the right role if you want broad responsibility early in your career and the chance to help build a company’s finance function from the ground up.
