• Troubleshoot and resolve data load errors or issues within Pigment and other connected systems.

Process & Reporting Support:

• Assist the global FP&A team with ad-hoc data pulls, consolidation, and formatting requests.
• Document data management processes, workflows, and best practices to ensure consistency and knowledge sharing.

• 3+ years of professional experience in a financial analysis, data analysis, or corporate accounting role.
• Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Excel is essential (e.g., VLOOKUP, INDEX/MATCH, SUMIFS, Pivot Tables, etc).
• Hands-on experience working with an ERP system, with a strong preference for NetSuite.
• Exceptional attention to detail and a commitment to data accuracy and quality control.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills with the ability to investigate and resolve data discrepancies independently.
• Excellent written and verbal communication skills in English.
