Key Responsibilities:

• Lead the monthly forecasting, annual budgeting, and long-range planning processes for retail sales, margins, and operating expenses.

• Partner with merchandising, store operations, and supply chain teams to understand trends, drivers, and performance gaps.
• Develop and maintain financial models to evaluate pricing strategies and promotions.
• Prepare monthly financial reports and dashboards highlighting performance vs. plan, forecast, and prior periods.
• Manage and support Accounting Manager in their day to day duties.
• Support senior management with ad hoc financial analysis, inventory reduction strategies, scenario modeling and business case development.
• Assist in the development of rolling forecasts and continuous improvement of planning processes and tools.
• Identify risks and opportunities in retail performance and recommend actionable solutions.
• Ensure financial controls, compliance, and consistency in retail finance reporting.

Preferred Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or related field; MBA or CPA a plus.
• 5+ years of experience in FP&A, ideally with a focus on retail or consumer products.
• Strong financial modeling and analytical skills; advanced Excel proficiency required.
• Experience with ERP systems (e.g., NetSuite, Oracle, SAP) and planning tools (e.g., Anaplan, Adaptive Insights, or similar).
• Solid understanding of retail financial drivers (e.g., COGS, foot traffic, inventory management, markdowns).
• Excellent communication and business partnering skills.
• Ability to work independently in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment.

Preferred Attributes:

  • Hands-on retail experience: You have a deep understanding of both physical stores and e-commerce.
  • Strong analytical skills: You're a pro at financial modeling and analysis.
  • A passion for data: You're comfortable using tools like Power BI or Tableau to turn data into a story.
  • The ability to influence: You're skilled at working with different teams to drive positive change.
