About the role

Senior Financial Analyst, FP&A - South Orange County, California (Hybrid) Our client is seeking a Senior Financial Analyst, Financial Planning & Analysis, to join its finance team in South Orange County, California. This is a high-visibility role at the center of the company's financial decision-making, offering the opportunity to support the planning and forecasting cycle, deliver actionable analysis to senior leadership, and build strong working relationships with department heads across the organization. The Senior Financial Analyst will report to the Senior Director, Finance and will work closely with finance leadership on inventory risk, margin analysis, and business decisions. The position covers key parts of the FP&A function, contributing to consolidated P&L, cash flow, and balance sheet forecasting, supporting multi-year scenario modeling and KPI development, and assisting with private equity stakeholder reporting. It's an opportunity for a finance professional with strong analytical fundamentals who is ready to deepen their ownership of the work and sharpen the communication skills needed to turn complex data into clear, leadership-ready insight. The ideal candidate will bring 4-6 years of solid FP&A experience, ideally within a manufacturing or product-oriented business, exposure to a private equity-backed environment, and the motivation to help continuously improve the tools, processes, and culture of the finance function. This role offers meaningful scope, growing access to senior leadership, and a clear path toward a Manager-level position as the company scales across a global footprint.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
