- Build and maintain driver-based forecasts connecting flight activity, fleet mix, crew costs, and maintenance inputs to financial performance.

- Develop and update tools to monitor aircraft profitability, utilization, and contribution margins.

- Perform variance analysis to identify drivers of financial performance gaps and communicate findings with actionable recommendations.
- Provide analytical support to senior leaders across Finance, Operations, Commercial, and Maintenance on key initiatives.

Executive Communication & Process Improvement
- Author memos, dashboards, and presentations that distill complex analysis into clear, actionable insights for the CEO, CFO, COO, and other senior leaders.
- Present findings and recommendations directly to executive leadership, translating analytical work into business narratives that drive decisions.
- Support cross-functional projects that improve transparency, accountability, and performance management.
- Build repeatable frameworks that enhance analytical rigor, reduce manual effort, and accelerate decision cycles.
- Serve as a resource and thought partner to colleagues on data interpretation, automation tools, and financial storytelling.
- 3–6 years of experience in FP&A, operations research, data science, consulting, or analytics — experience in aviation, logistics, or other asset-intensive industries is a plus.
- Background in one or more of the following: financial modeling and driver-based planning, statistical analysis and predictive modeling, or operations research and optimization. Willingness to develop skills across all three.
- Proficiency in SQL and BI tools (Tableau, Power BI, or similar); Python or R experience preferred.
- Demonstrated fluency with AI tools — including generative AI, LLM-based workflows, and automation platforms — as part of daily analytical work.
- Experience with or strong interest in deploying AI/ML models for forecasting, optimization, or automation.
- Familiarity with aviation systems (Avianis, Corridor, CAMP, Airtable, or equivalent) is a plus.
- Comfort with applied statistics, experimentation, and working with large datasets.
- Exceptional communication and executive presentation skills.
- Entrepreneurial, curious, and adaptable — thrives in a fast-paced, rapidly evolving environment.
