At the American Red Cross, your uniqueness can shine!

The American Red Cross is seeking a Finance Analyst I to participate in a rotational program to groom them for future leadership positions. The selected individual will start on the one departmental Finance team and will then, at least six months later, will rotate through approximately three more finance teams spending about six months learning and contributing in each (the first rotation may be longer depending on start date). Teams may include:

The Field Finance team that supports the finances of our local regions
The Training Services Finance and Analysis team
NHQ Finance Program lead functions such as support to fundraising, domestic disaster, international services, Services to Armed Forces, or IT
Biomedical (focused on blood products) operations and supply chain finance team
The Biomedical recruitment and collections team.
The Fundraising Finance team supporting our incoming donations.
During the rotation, the analyst will have an employee “coach” to provide regular advice, guidance, and, if necessary, trouble shooting. The analyst will also receive advice from one or more volunteer mentors who have achieved significant success in the finance industry. Additionally, the analyst will receive formal and informal training from a variety of sources including volunteers, employees, and internal educational opportunities.

To be clear, the intent of the program is for the analyst to perform the regular and ad hoc work of the team they are supporting at that time. Most of the learning in the program will come from doing the actual work of the team. Although there may be special projects, this is likely to be the minority of the work; rotators are expected to “get their hands dirty” with the regular finance day to day work and whatever is highest priority at that moment.
After completion of the rotation program, the analyst will be placed with a team based on the needs of the finance department combined with personal preference.

This is a virtual opportunity (with possible options to work a few days a week in an office if desired depending on location).

Under close supervision, assist with the collection and analysis of data from organizational units. Support the preparation of financial plans and/or financial analysis. May provide business leaders with financial forecasts to support short and long - term decision making. Provide support, development and/or leadership guidance to all volunteers.
