The Financial Specialist will have two primary roles:  support the competitive intelligence program; support the new product portfolio data collection and reporting processes.  The competitive role will include weekly work compiling competitive news and information for broad internal reporting, as well as ad hoc and project work to help compile competitive information for quarterly reporting and analysis.  The portfolio role will include more technical Excel, Access and internal database work as well as follow-up with many data owners to create and update ongoing portfolio reporting and ad hoc analysis. This is a non-management position and career path.  While strong performance will always be recognized and rewarded, opportunity for promotion and advancement is very limited.  The minimum expectation is that the successful candidate will hold this role for at least 3-5 years before having opportunity to seek a position in another part of the business.  While excellence and results are expected, the demands of the role are consistent with a 40 hour work week, with occasional need to work a slightly flex schedule to meet unusual short-term business demands.  Flexibility is appreciated.   This position is located in Dayton, Ohio. This is a non-management position.  Relocation expenses are not paid. A four year degree in Accounting or Finance is preferred, but will consider business professionals with significant financial/accounting experience.  Expertise in the use of Microsoft Excel, Word and Power Point, proficiency in Access, as well as the ability to learn internal databases and policies is required.  Candidates that will be considered must have a basic understanding of key financial measures (percentages, variance analysis, NPV, IRR) and profit and loss statements.  Candidates must also be able to demonstrate through prior experience the ability to lead small group discussions with peers and more senior employees, including some higher level managers.  Strong experience with developing business partner relationships and collaboration is required.  The candidate must be comfortable taking ownership of projects and bringing them to completion with minimal supervision.  The ability to organize and prioritize multiple tasks to meet deadlines and deliver results is required.  For the purpose of tracking and analyzing initiative results, day to day responsibilities will largely be working in Excel and internal databases.  In addition, the role will also be involved in some degree of project work streamlining processes as well as participating in multi-functional initiative teams.   The ideal candidate for this role is someone looking to leverage their financial skills, professionalism, technical mastery of financial tools and previous experience to deliver steady and sustained results at one of the most respected companies in Ohio.  The candidate must enjoy developing technical mastery and consistently applying that knowledge on weekly reporting and routine tasks and also on ad hoc projects as needed.   Must be able to work in an environment where there is direct and indirect contact with dogs and cats on a regular basis. 
 
Candidates must be a U.S. citizen or national, refugee, asylee or lawful permanent resident.
