About The Position

Leidos' Intelligence Sector is seeking a Senior Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A) Analyst to support our National Solutions Business Area in Reston - VA. This is a key role in the Finance organization responsible for supporting business area-wide financial analysis and reporting. This position will support the financial forecasting of all metrics including revenue, EBITDA, cash/working capital and backlog for the business area on a recurring basis, including monthly actual analysis, fiscal year projections, and the yearly AOP and multi-year strategic plan. This role reports directly to the Business Area F&BO leader. At Leidos, we don’t want someone who "fits the mold"—we want someone who melts it down and builds something better. This is a role for the restless, the over-caffeinated, the ones who ask, “what’s next?” before the dust settles on “what’s now.” If you’re already scheming step 20 while everyone else is still debating step 2… good. You’ll fit right in.
