Senior Financial Analyst – Financial Planning & Analysis - Sterling Lawyers LLC

(2026-03)

FP&A business partner to the CFO and finance leadership; owns recurring forecasting, cash flow, KPI, and management reporting.

• Partner with the CFO and finance leadership across the full FP&A cycle – rolling forecasts, budgeting and planning, month-end actuals reporting, P&L and cash flow analysis, and variance commentary – delivering decision-ready analysis rather than raw reporting output.
• Developed and continues to enhance a 31-day rolling cash flow forecast integrating daily AR cash collections, expected installments, future payment projections, autobill activity, past-due accounts, early payments, and stage-based collection assumptions – giving management near-term visibility into liquidity, expected receipts, and collection risk.
• Applied driver-based collection logic by payment stage, separating contractually committed receipts from probability-weighted collections so leadership evaluates a range of cash outcomes rather than a single-point estimate.
• Built and automated recurring KPI and management reporting across revenue, cost, margin, cash, and operational performance; analyze trends, isolate material variances, and surface risks ahead of month-end reviews.
• Analyze Salesforce CRM data – leads, opportunities, quotes, ROs, and client activity – converting operational pipeline data into FP&A metrics including conversion and close rates, client counts, average revenue per client, and pipeline coverage against forecast.
• Perform budget vs. actual variance analysis across departments and entities, investigating drivers at transaction level in QuickBooks Online and recommending reclasses where accounting treatment distorts the management reporting view.
• Bridge accounting and FP&A by reconciling QBO expense, account, and entity-level detail to management reporting, so forecasts and KPIs tie back to auditable source data.
• Automated recurring reporting workflows using Google Sheets, data connectors, and AI-assisted tooling (Claude), reducing manual data manipulation and establishing repeatable, documented processes for cash forecasting, KPI reporting, and month-end analysis.
• Evaluated Salesforce reporting and API limitations on large datasets and scoped BigQuery as a centralized data repository for Salesforce and QBO data to improve reporting scalability, refresh reliability, and single-source-of-truth reporting.
