About The Position

As a Financial Analyst at ABB, you won't just crunch numbers — you'll shape the story behind them. You'll dig into the drivers of business performance, build financial models, and turn complex data into clear insights that influence real decisions at one of the world's leading technology companies. In this role, you'll be at the heart of planning and strategy — supporting budgeting, forecasting, and business planning cycles while developing automated solutions that make the finance function smarter and faster. You'll present your findings directly to management, giving you meaningful visibility and a platform to drive change. You'll also play a key role in ensuring ABB's financial integrity — owning reconciliations, compliance frameworks, and audit-readiness — while partnering with project teams to identify risks and opportunities that directly impact revenue and cash flow. If you're someone who thrives on turning data into decisions, loves building efficient processes, and wants to grow in an environment where your analytical skills genuinely move the needle — this is the role for you. The work model for this role is hybrid in New Berlin, WI or Houston, TX.
