Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A) Analyst

Portland, Oregon | Leatherman Tool Group

We're looking for a curious, analytical, and technology-minded FP&A Analyst who wants to do more than report numbers. This role is an opportunity to influence business decisions, improve processes, leverage AI, and partner with leaders across a globally recognized manufacturing company.

If you enjoy turning data into insights, building financial models, automating processes, and helping leaders make better decisions, we'd love to meet you.

  • Collaborate across departments to support strategic business decisions
  • Improve finance processes, reporting tools, and business intelligence capabilities
  • Explore and leverage AI tools to improve the speed, quality, and depth of financial analysis and forecasting
  • Support month-end close activities, accruals, and ad hoc financial projects


What Makes This Role Different?

At Leatherman, we're looking for someone who doesn't just maintain spreadsheets-we're looking for someone who constantly asks:

"How can we do this better?"

We value curiosity, continuous improvement, innovation, and a willingness to embrace new technologies. If you're experimenting with AI tools, automating repetitive work, building dashboards, or finding smarter ways to analyze data, you'll fit right in.

  • Action-oriented and solution-focused
