Job Description

FP&A Analyst

Finance

Full-Time (Hybrid)

Norwalk, CT, US

OVERVIEW

We’re seeking a naturally curious FP&A Analyst who is comfortable with numbers and excited to develop foundational skills in FP&A. In this role, the candidate will have opportunities to grow, contribute to meaningful work, and gain real insight into how strategic decisions are made.

FP&A sits at the center of the business, helping teams make informed decisions and ensuring consistent financial insight across the organization. This role is a great opportunity for an early-career professional who is eager to learn how a business operates and wants hands-on experience with forecasting, financial modeling, and reporting.

You will join a small, supportive team that develops reporting tools, such as Power BI dashboards, to help departments across the company. In this role, you’ll quickly gain exposure to commercial teams as you learn to analyze large datasets, create reports, and support key decision-making processes.

PRIMARY RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Support the reporting of financial and operating metrics (sales, margin, customer data) and help explain performance trends
  • Assist in analyzing results against budget and identifying potential risks or opportunities
  • Work with teams across the business to provide regular and ad hoc forecasts
  • Help produce quarterly royalty statements for external partners
  • Provide analytical support to Marketing, including campaign and subscription performance analysis
  • Work closely with Finance team members on management accounts and reporting
  • Assist with marketing-related accruals
  • Partner with the Data team to support the development of Power BI dashboards and reporting tools
  • Assist in preparing annual budgets, reforecasts, and long-range planning models
  • Help translate data into meaningful insights for business partners
  • Provide support with brand partner proposals as needed
  • Complete ad hoc analysis and reporting assignments

EDUCATION

  • 2–4 years of experience in FP&A, Finance, or another analytical role
  • High School Diploma (required)

EXPERIENCE & KNOWLEDGE

  • Strong Excel skills (required)
  • Experience with financial analysis or modeling (a plus, but not required)
  • Strong numerical skills and comfort working with data
  • Proven track record of work ownership
  • Detail-oriented with accountability to deadlines

QUALITIES

  • Willingness to learn complex financial concepts
  • Curious mindset and interest in understanding how numbers connect to business performance
  • Self-motivated with eagerness to grow
  • Well-organized and able to manage multiple tasks
  • Strong communication skills and ability to work collaboratively across cross-functional teams
  • Interest in wine is a bonus—not a requirement
  • Team-oriented approach and willingness to learn from others

BENEFITS

  • Full-time employees receive a complete benefits package, including:
  • 401(k) with employer match
  • Medical, Dental, and Vision benefits
  • Company-paid Life and Disability Insurance
  • Flexible Time Off
  • Employee wine discounts and special offers
  • Company-paid WSET Certification
  • Ongoing personal and professional development
