1. Senior Financial Analyst

   The Carlstar Group

   Aug 2024 — Present · Franklin, TN, US

   As a Senior Financial analyst at The Carlstar Group, I played a pivotal role in supporting the Director of Finance by delivering reliable and comprehensive financial analyses. My work provided critical insights to the executive leadership team, controllers, department heads, and other key stakeholders, directly contributing to strategic initiatives and projects across the company. My focus as a Senior Analyst was on delivering clear and actionable insights through the analysis of financial and operational data, developing robust financial models, and producing thorough monthly reports. Throughout my tenure, I excelled in cross-functional collaboration, working closely with diverse teams to drive results and enhance decision-making processes. My approach was grounded in a commitment to accuracy, continuous improvement, and a personal drive for delivering high-quality outcomes. I developed and provided detailed financial reporting for commercial, procurement, and operational teams, prepared and analyzed financial and operational data, and supported the accounting teams during the monthly close process. Additionally, I played a key role in preparing and reporting on SG & A department spending, contributing to the development of monthly financial packages and operations reports for the executive leadership team. As a financial team member involved in Sales, Inventory, and Operations Planning (SIOP) processes, I utilized various analytical tools to identify growth opportunities and streamline complexity through the 80/20 principle. Furthermore, I supported the development of annual operating plans, working closely with cross-functional teams to ensure alignment and execution. My experience and dedication have equipped me with a strong foundation in financial analysis, strategic planning, and operational efficiency.
