FP&A Analyst

Hertha Metals • Conroe, TX

36d • Onsite

About The Position

Hertha Metals is looking for a FP&A Analyst to own budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis as the company scales. This isn't a back-office reporting seat- you will be embedded in the business, digging into why a line item came in $5K under budget one month and over the next, and helping the business actually adapt based on what you find. You will also carry significant compliance responsibilities, working closely with the VP of Finance to ensure compliance with government and regulatory requirements, manage contractual obligations, support investor-facing reporting, and strengthen the financial and operational controls expected of a growing company. This is a hands-on role for someone who wants to understand how a factory runs, not just how the numbers look on a spreadsheet.

• Background in manufacturing, industrial, energy, mining, metals, infrastructure, or a high-growth startup environment preferred
• Energetic and highly motivated; high level of organization; able to multitask on many projects; detail oriented; able to focus on overall project goals; team oriented.
• Individuals must be able to work independently and also be able to direct long-term tasks through to completion. Some projects are highly supervised, some are minimally supervised
