JOB DESCRIPTION SUMMARY
We are seeking an analytically strong Corporate FP&A Analyst to support Greystar’s C-Suite functions, including the Offices of the CEO (Chief Executive Officer), CFO (Chief Financial Officer), CIO (Chief Investment Officer), and CLO (Chief Legal Officer). The functions supported include, but are not limited to, Managed Capital, Investment Strategy & Research, Data & Technology, Legal, Risk Management, Treasury, and Tax. The Corporate FP&A team supports 40+ business leaders across these functions.
Reporting to the Senior Director, Corporate FP&A, this individual will support the operating expense forecasts for each of these functions, including the annual business plan as well as monthly and quarterly forecasts, and prepare the consolidated reporting and analysis used to explain financial performance to senior leaders. The Analyst also supports cost allocation reporting for the C-Suite functions and will serve as a hands-on driver of the team’s use of AI, automation, and the systems tech stack.
JOB DESCRIPTION
C-Suite Operating Expense Planning & Forecasting
•
Own operating expense (OpEx) and capital expense (CapEx) budgeting, forecasting, and variance tracking packages for each C-Suite function, partnering with function leaders to build forecasts that are well-supported and defensible.
•
Own budget-to-actual variance explanations for monthly reporting deliverables, partnering with Accounting, Finance and function leaders to identify key drivers and provide clear, timely commentary.
•
Prepare the annual business plan, quarterly reforecasts, and related presentation materials for senior leadership for the C-Suite functions, collaborating with Accounting, Finance, and business teams to collect, validate, and synthesize inputs.
•
Perform ad hoc reporting and analytics, including what-if and scenario analyses, in response to requests from the CFO, CLO, CIO, and their leadership teams.
Consolidated C-Suite Reporting & Analysis
•
Prepare each consolidated C-Suite management reporting package for senior leadership, pairing the numbers with a clear narrative — key drivers identified, variances explained, and leadership questions anticipated before they’re asked.
•
Analyze monthly and quarterly financial performance for each C-Suite function against budget and forecast, identify key drivers and variances, investigate unexpected results, and communicate meaningful insights to Corporate Finance and senior leadership.
•
Review work carefully for accuracy, completeness, and consistency before distribution, and take ownership of assigned deliverables from initial request through completion.
Cost Allocation Ownership & Reporting
•
Partner with the functional leaders to understand the cost drivers across the C-Suite functions and help shape allocation methodologies that distribute those costs across the businesses, balancing accuracy, fairness, and practicality.
•
Own the ongoing validation process that confirms allocated costs are posted correctly across every ledger in scope, maintaining clear documentation of how the process works.
•
Assist in delivering proactive allocation variance summaries each financial review cycle, and document the reasoning behind the allocation methodology and any changes made during the year.
