The opportunity

Anduril Industries is a defense technology company with a mission to transform U. S.

What you'll do

  • Run the Cadence: Execute the financial operating calendar (monthly, quarterly, annually), owning the templates, data pulls, and deliverables that make each cycle land on time, and chasing inputs from cross-functional partners ahead of key deadlines.

  • Consolidate the Numbers: Own the mechanics of consolidated budgeting, forecasting, and annual planning — collecting and validating division submissions, and building the consolidated view of actuals against plan and forecast.

  • Explain the Variances: Produce clear, accurate variance and driver analysis at the company, division, and business-line level, and draft the first version of the story behind it — what moved, why, and what it implies — for review by the team and delivery to C-Suite.

  • Prepare Executive Materials: Build the exhibits, models, and presentation materials used in monthly business reviews, quarterly reviews, and planning sessions, to a standard that holds up to scrutiny without rework.

  • Build for Scale: Treat recurring manual work as a problem to be solved, not a cost of doing business. Use AI tooling and modern data tools to compress the distance between raw data and finished analysis, so a small team can carry a company-wide scope.

  • years of relevant experience in Corporate Finance/FP&A, Consulting or: Strategy, or Investment Banking. Exposure to corporate consolidations, month-end close, or multi-entity reporting is a plus.

What they're looking for

  • Strong financial acumen and advanced proficiency in Excel and financial: modeling; able to build a model another person can audit.
  • Comfortable working in and across financial systems (e.g., ERP,: consolidation, planning tools), with an understanding of how data flows between them and an eye for improving the processes and tooling that make analysis faster and more reliable.
  • Fluent with current AI tools and actively applying them to real work: you have used them to automate or accelerate something meaningful in a prior role, and can walk through what you built, where it worked, and where you deliberately chose not to trust the output.
  • Strong written and oral communication skills and the ability to work: seamlessly cross-functionally; collaborative by default, and comfortable building trust with partners across Finance, Accounting, and the business.
