Sr. Financial Analyst – Commercial
FP&A – Commercial | Reports to Sr. Finance Director, Media & Commercial

Our mission to positively impact people’s lives every day in every home around the world allows our employees to be thinkers and tinkerers, designers and doers, creators and number crunchers — makers of things they love. Shark Ninja moves fast. Our products are in millions of homes, and the commercial engine behind that growth runs hard:
Sales, Consumer Direct, Supply Chain, Customer Experience, and Sales Operations. This role sits at the center of it. As a Sr. Financial Analyst, you’ll manage operating expenses globally across a broad set of commercial teams, drive important tradeoff decisions, and translate the numbers into clear, decision-ready insights for senior leaders. If you’re energized by variety and thrive in a fast-paced environment, this role is for you.

• Own the FP&A cycle — budgeting, forecasting, and actuals — for operating expenses that drive business growth across all commercial teams.
• Build and maintain financial models that drive clarity and speed for business partners.
• Deliver monthly actuals packages to executive business leaders with KPI-driven variance analysis that explains the story.
• Partner with commercial leaders on spend and investment decisions — surfacing tradeoffs and flagging risks before they become surprises.
• Support scenario modeling and ad hoc analysis as the business evaluates new opportunities and strategic investments.

Reporting & Insight Generation

• Build analysis and presentations that translate complex financial data into clear, decision-ready insights.
• Use AI tools and automation to accelerate workflows and unlock capacity for higher-value analysis.

• Collaborate with FP&A colleagues to ensure consistency and alignment across the broader global finance organization.
• Support special projects and strategic initiatives as the business evolves.

• Finance foundation with understanding of FP&A concepts and rhythms, with experience in budgeting and actuals management.
• The ability to translate complex financial data into clear narratives for non-finance audiences, including senior leadership.
• Proficiency in Microsoft Excel and Power BI; experience with Snowflake, SQL, or similar data environments is a plus.
• Fluency (or a genuine appetite) for AI and automation tools.
• Solid analytical instincts and sharp attention to detail, with the judgment to know what matters.
• The ability to operate with autonomy, manage competing priorities, and deliver in a fast-paced environment.
