Senior Financial Analyst, FP&A

Chicago, IL In person Full-time
  • We are a multi-entity health system operating hospitals, surgical facilities, and physician groups across
  • multiple states. We are looking for a Senior Financial Analyst to join our FP&A team and serve as a right hand
  • The right person is equal parts analyst and builder: someone who can turn messy source data into a clean
  • model, defend the numbers in front of leadership, and spot the story the variance is telling before anyone
  • asks. Healthcare experience is a plus, but we care more about strong financial fundamentals, modeling
  • discipline, and intellectual curiosity. If you can build a model you'd stake your name on, we can teach you the healthcare context.

What You'll Do

  • Own recurring entity-level and consolidated reporting across the portfolio — monthly close packages,

variance analysis, and management reporting — and explain the why behind the numbers, not just the

what.

  • Build and maintain financial models: operating forecasts, service-line P&Ls, acquisition proformas, and

ad hoc analyses supporting strategic decisions.

  • Prepare CFO- and executive-facing deliverables — variance memos, board materials, and financing

packages — that are clean, accurate, and decision-ready.

  • Partner with operational and accounting teams to reconcile financial and operational data, investigate

discrepancies, and improve the integrity of the numbers upstream.

  • Support the annual budget and periodic reforecast cycles, including building templates, consolidating

inputs, and pressure-testing assumptions.

  • Pull, transform, and analyze data from multiple systems (GL, clinical/revenue, and data warehouse

sources) and help make those pipelines more repeatable.

  • Contribute to acquisition and corporate-development analysis — diligence support, integration

modeling, and return analysis.

  • Continuously improve how the team works: better templates, cleaner data flows, and smart use of

automation and tooling.

What We're Looking For

Required

  • Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field.
  • 3+ years of progressive experience in FP&A, corporate finance, accounting, or a comparable analytical

finance role.

  • Advanced Excel and financial modeling skills — you can build a three-statement or driver-based model

from a blank sheet and keep it auditable.

  • Strong command of financial statements and the ability to translate operational activity into financial

results.

  • Excellent attention to detail paired with the judgment to know which details matter.
  • Clear written and verbal communication; you can distill a complex analysis into a one-page memo an

executive can act on.

  • Comfort working with large, imperfect datasets and reconciling across multiple source systems.

Preferred (Nice to Have)

  • Experience in healthcare finance — hospitals, ambulatory/surgical, physician groups, or payor/provider

economics.

  • Familiarity with ERP and reporting platforms (e.g., Sage Intacct or similar), clinical/revenue-cycle

reporting tools, and a cloud data warehouse (e.g., Snowflake).

  • Exposure to SQL, Python, or BI tools for data extraction and analysis.
  • Experience with analysis, proforma modeling, or multi-entity consolidations.
  • CPA, CFA, or MBA (in progress or completed) is a plus, not a requirement.

Who Thrives Here

  • You're someone who takes ownership without being asked twice, who is bothered when a number doesn't
  • tie, and who would rather ask a sharp question than nod along. You're at ease in a fast-moving environment
  • where priorities shift, and you see ambiguity as a place to add value rather than a reason to wait for
  • instructions.
