FARMER'S FRIDGE Financial Analyst Salary in the United States

Farmer’s Fridge is on a mission to make it simple for everyone to eat well. We serve healthy, handcrafted meals and snacks from our growing network of 400 Smart Fridges (software-enabled vending machines). We are striving to change the food system from the ground up – one Fridge or delivery at a time. 

We are a team that cares -– about the business, the impact our product makes, and each other. We are data-driven, innovative, and quick to move on a good idea. We are looking for people who want to collaborate in an entrepreneurial, inclusive culture and have a passion to succeed.

We are seeking a data-driven, high-performing Financial Analyst to play a supporting role in forecasting, planning, and financial reporting and helping position the Finance team to be a strong strategic business partner across the organization.

The Financial Analyst is a key member of the team, reporting directly to the FP&A Manager with significant exposure to senior leadership. The ideal candidate must have great communication and interpersonal skills, a strong analytical toolset, and an ability to translate the details into the bigger picture. This is a great opportunity for someone who is driven by a challenge and wants to grow with us, as this role will have a clear career path with multiple development opportunities.

What You’ll Do:

• Support the development and maintenance of financial models for purposes of financial reporting, forecasting, and financial planning.

3. We’re an omnichannel, vertical business with equal complexity across Production, Distribution, Marketing, Sales, Tech, and more. The person in this role will be working with some of these key stakeholders to turn data into actionable results, whether supporting the forecasting process and plan execution by digging into costs or modeling a pro forma P&L to evaluate a deal opportunity.
