Senior Financial Analyst

The Senior Financial Analyst is a hands-on, highly analytical member of our FP&A & Analytics team and a trusted partner to Finance leadership. You'll deliver recurring reporting and analysis, build the models that drive planning and decision-making across our multi-entity, PE-backed structure, and translate complex data into clear, executive-ready insight for the CFO, ownership, and our private equity partner. This is a high-visibility individual-contributor role for someone who combines strong analytical and modeling skills with the judgment to know which numbers matter and the initiative to drive work forward independently.

• Assist with marketing analytics - including LTO/promo ROI analysis and loyalty analysis
• Deliver recurring financial reporting and variance analysis (actuals vs. budget, forecast, and prior year), with clear commentary on the drivers behind the numbers
• Build and maintain integrated, three-statement and scenario models to support pricing, capital projects, and strategic decisions
• Contribute to the annual operating plan (AOP) and long-range plan (LRP), helping build and maintain driver-based models across our multi-entity structure
• Lead the development and ongoing improvement of Power BI dashboards, data models, and DAX measures used across Finance, Operations, and leadership
• Prepare materials for the Monthly Business Review (M ), board pre-reads, and executive presentations - turning complex data into a clear narrative and recommendation
• Support recurring reporting cycles (weekly, monthly, quarterly, and annual) with accurate, actionable output
• Assist with ad-hoc and cross-functional analyses in partnership with Operations, Marketing, and Franchise Development
