Position: – FP&A Analyst
Reports to: CFO
Salary: $50-65K
Location: Phoenix, AZ
AVO Support provides outsourced accounting, finance, and advisory services to growing businesses that need clarity, structure, and forward-looking insight—without the overhead of a full internal finance team. We work directly with business owners and leadership teams to help them understand their numbers, plan for growth, and make better decisions.
This role is ideal for an FP&A professional who enjoys variety, client interaction, and building something alongside a founder.
Role Overview
AVO Support is hiring a entry to mid-level FP&A Analyst to support client budgeting, forecasting, and financial analytics. This is a client-facing role that works closely with the Founder/CFO and plays a key role in delivering high-quality financial insights to business owners.
You will be responsible for building and maintaining financial models, preparing forecasts and budgets, analyzing performance, and proactively identifying insights and recommendations for clients. While the Founder will lead client meetings, you will actively participate, contribute analysis, and help shape recommendations.
This is not a back-office reporting role—this position requires strong judgment, curiosity, and the confidence to propose ideas and challenge assumptions.

- Participate in client meetings alongside the Founder/CFO to discuss financial performance, forecasts, and strategic considerations
