Turn Financial Data Into Business Decisions
In-Place Machining Company (IPM) is looking for an experienced Financial Analyst to join our Milwaukee team.

- Prepare daily, weekly, and monthly financial and operational reporting for senior leadership.
- Build, monitor, and improve Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) that measure business performance.
- Prepare monthly financial reporting packages for executive leadership and the Board of Directors.
- Partner directly with the CFO on annual budgeting, forecasting, and long-range financial planning.
- Perform financial modeling, variance analysis, profitability analysis, and ad hoc business analysis.
- Translate complex financial and operational data into clear recommendations for leadership.
- Maintain and enhance financial reporting, forecasting, and business intelligence tools.
- Develop financial presentations and materials for management and Board meetings.
- Support monthly financial close activities and analysis of financial results.
- Partner with accounting and operational leaders to improve financial visibility and reporting.
- Support mergers and acquisitions, including modeling, due diligence, financial analysis, and integration activities.
- Identify opportunities to improve financial processes, reporting accuracy, and data quality.
