The Finit Consultant

Character

Joining the Finit team means sharing Finit’s core cultural values of integrity, personal drive, innate curiosity, and empathy for others. Our consultants enrich the experience of their clients and colleagues by being candid yet egoless and collaborative yet self-directed. We are driven to deliver on behalf of others, and we look for candidates who can demonstrate their own inquisitiveness, grit, and personal approach.

Background

Finit consultants come from a variety of backgrounds. Some of us have been implementing financial systems for decades. Many of us come from corporate accounting, with backgrounds as consolidations managers, financial analysts, financial systems administrators, and directors of financial planning. On the IT side, we have consultants from backgrounds in infrastructure, database management, application support, and programming. Others have come from backgrounds as diverse as public audit, project management, and even law. What we all share is an interest in, and affinity for, crafting and building corporate performance management technology solutions.

Experience

2-5 years: Finit consultants in the first 5 years of their careers not only enjoy learning but have an established, tangible pattern of teaching themselves new things. We look for early-career candidates to have a solid foundation in accounting and/or technology, excellent communication skills, and the ability to discuss prior roles and responsibilities at a detailed level.

5-10 years: At 5-10 years into their career, Finit consultants demonstrate deep functional and/or technical proficiency. Candidates at this level should have the communication skills, collaborative spirit, professional maturity, and skillset to provide day-to-day project leadership.

10+ years: Experienced Finit consultants have both the functional and technical knowledge to anticipate risks and offer guidance to clients beyond the scope and timeline of individual projects. These consultants build solutions that are rooted in depth of experience but also tailored to fit a specific and unique set of needs for each client. Experienced candidates must share Finit’s belief that creating value starts with aligning ourselves with our clients’ best interests.

Education

Finit consultants typically have bachelor’s or master’s degrees in accounting, finance, IT, or a closely related field.
