📋 Description

• • Gratia, Inc. is seeking highly skilled and motivated Financial Modelling Specialists to join our dynamic, remote-first delivery team. We are a unique apprenticeship-based platform dedicated to connecting ambitious companies with top-tier talent, fostering global careers through professional development and cutting-edge tech-enabled platforms. Our mission is to democratize opportunity by enabling individuals to leverage their potential and deliver tangible results for leading global organizations. We pride ourselves on a rigorous approach to execution, ensuring our clients receive not just advice, but reliable, bulletproof financial products that drive critical business decisions.
• • As a Financial Modelling Specialist, you will be at the forefront of building the essential technical tools that empower founders and executives to navigate complex business landscapes. Whether you are a mid-level professional or a seasoned senior expert, your core responsibility will be the hands-on construction of integrated financial models, comprehensive valuation analyses, and insightful forecasting dashboards. You will collaborate closely with our project leads, translating abstract business objectives into concrete, actionable financial solutions. This role is tiered, meaning your specific level of engagement and the complexity of projects assigned will be determined by your demonstrated technical proficiency, your professional background, and your capacity for client relationship management.
• • Your day-to-day responsibilities will encompass a wide range of critical financial modelling activities. You will be tasked with building and scaling robust, driver-based three-statement models, meticulously integrating the Profit & Loss (P&L) statement, Balance Sheet, and Cash Flow statement, along with developing multi-year financial projections. A significant part of your role will involve performing thorough company and asset valuations, employing established frameworks such as Discounted Cash Flow (DCF) analysis, comparable company analysis (CCA), and precedent transaction analysis. You will also be instrumental in designing and implementing sophisticated scenario testing frameworks, including "what-if" analyses and sensitivity testing, to effectively quantify potential risks and upside opportunities for our stakeholders.
• • Leveraging advanced financial mathematics and modelling techniques, you will provide technical clarity and strategic insights for a variety of business initiatives, including market entry strategies, operational efficiency improvements, and fundraising efforts. A key aspect of your contribution will be ensuring the absolute accuracy and transparency of every deliverable. This means ensuring every cell in your models is correct, the underlying logic is easily understandable, and all visual outputs are presented with exceptional clarity for the end-user. You will own the integrity of your work from inception to final delivery, ensuring it meets Gratia's high standards for precision and usability.
• • Gratia offers a unique environment for independent professionals. This is a long-term contract/freelance role designed to provide the freedom and autonomy of private practice without the inherent isolation. We offer flexible engagement options, including both part-time and full-time opportunities, allowing you to design a professional rhythm that aligns with your life. Compensation is competitive and tailored to your specific expertise and the value you bring to our clients. By joining Gratia, you will elevate your professional profile by working directly with senior leaders at innovative and globally recognized organizations such as USA Today Co., Endeavor, and New York Life. We are committed to your professional growth, offering a defined trajectory that moves you from "doing" to "leading." Through our apprenticeship model, you will gain specialized expertise and develop crucial leadership skills, progressing from roles like Associate Business Analyst to Engagement Lead based on your performance and project experience. Become part of a supportive community where knowledge sharing and continuous learning are paramount, and earn Specialist designations in high-demand financial domains.
