  • Forecast headcount costs and partner with HR on compensation planning
  • Pair Excel forecasting with a candidly-kind review of the downside case
  • Build variance commentary executives actually read top to bottom

  What You'll Bring

  • Comfort being the newest person in the room and the loudest in the notes
  • A MS work history, or strong reasons you'll thrive here anyway
  • Equal parts Anaplan depth and Excel curiosity
  • At least 7 years building expertise within the finance space
  • A growth mindset that treats feedback as fuel, not threat
  • The patience to mentor without taking over the keyboard
  • Hands-on proficiency with Public Speaking, ideally paired with CPA Certification

  Rooted in Jackson and restless by nature, Financial Advantage keeps reinventing how Public Speaking and Excel fit together. We keep the Jackson, MS office quiet on Wednesdays so deep General Ledger work actually gets a fighting chance.
