You'll ensure our systems and models are accurate and robust to provide the level of granularity needed to drive the business forward. About the Lead Analyst, FP&A • Forecasting: Own the ODS Actual/Forecasting models for Revenue/GP, including complex elements like minimum guarantees (MGs) and Credits along with all rate and volume calculations. • Executive Visibility: Lead the tie-out and review process for the CRO Deck and weekly ELT reporting, translating operational data into executive-level insights. • Operational Synergy: Partner deeply with Operations and BI to align data efforts and automate reporting dashboards. • Ad-Hoc Strategy: Dive into unique data requests and high-priority analysis that guide the business teams for critical asks.
