About The Role

What if your financial acumen could directly power faster, smarter decision-making at some of today's most data-driven organizations? We're looking for Finance Associates to support analytical and operational finance work --- reviewing datasets, validating models, and distilling complex information into clear, actionable summaries.

This is a fully remote, flexible contract role. If you have a sharp eye for numbers, a methodical approach to analysis, and experience in finance or business operations, this role is built for you.

  • Organization: Alignerr
  • Type: Hourly Contract
  • Location: Remote
  • Commitment: Flexible, asynchronous workflow

What You'll Do

  • Review financial datasets for completeness, accuracy, and internal consistency
  • Support updates to financial models, templates, and spreadsheets
  • Validate calculations and flag anomalies, discrepancies, or errors before they compound
  • Summarize key insights and trends in clear, structured formats that inform fast decisions
  • Work within established analytical workflows to deliver consistent, high-quality output
  • Collaborate asynchronously with internal teams to meet deliverable standards

Who You Are

  • Strong analytical thinker with solid spreadsheet skills --- you're comfortable deep in data
  • Experienced in finance, accounting, or business operations support
  • Detail-oriented and systematic --- errors don't slip past you
  • Clear, concise written communicator who can translate numbers into narrative
  • Reliable and self-directed when working independently without close supervision
  • Able to follow structured review workflows and deliver predictable, accurate output

Nice to Have

  • Experience supporting model-driven or quantitative teams
  • Familiarity with financial reporting concepts and frameworks
  • Background in FP&A, management accounting, or business intelligence
  • Exposure to data validation or quality assurance processes

Why Join Us

  • Work on impactful analytical projects alongside leading data-driven organizations
  • Fully remote and flexible --- work on your own schedule, asynchronously
  • Freelance autonomy with the structure of meaningful, task-based work
  • Build your portfolio with substantive finance and analytics work
  • Potential for ongoing work and contract extension as new projects launch
