Financial analysts evaluate an organization's or investment's financial performance, building financial models and forecasting future results using Excel and querying underlying data with SQL. They present findings to leadership through PowerPoint decks that support budgeting, investment, or strategic decisions. The role typically requires a finance or accounting background and suits numerically rigorous people who can also communicate insights clearly to non-financial audiences.
