Our Culture at Astra

At Astra, we are builders. We want to be the gold standard for people in the Commercial Services trades. We are building a 100+ year business with an A+ team—driven, excited about the future, and looking for people who want to build with us. We believe in hiring people with a growth mindset who are committed to building something bigger than themselves. Our culture is grounded in four core values: Coach, Compete, Collaborate, and Commit. We strive to be low ego, high performance, and deeply committed to our people, our Operating Companies, and our long-term vision. Leaders at Astra are expected to be hands-on, humble, and relentlessly focused on outcomes and continuous improvement.


Astra is a roll-up-your-sleeves culture. At all levels of leadership, we expect people to self-prioritize, act quickly and effectively, demonstrate agility in their thinking, and get the job done every day. This is not a sit-back-and-direct environment—we value doers, problem-solvers, and leaders who are hands-on and decisive in driving results.

 

POSITION OVERVIEW:
Astra Service Partners is hiring a Financial Analyst to join its FP&A team to help support our fast-growing business. The Financial Analyst will play a key role in Astra’s financial reporting, budgeting, and forecasting processes, supporting leadership with insights that drive decision-making and operational efficiency. You’ll collaborate closely with the Director and Head of FP&A, as well as Astra’s operating companies and data insights teams, to deliver accurate, timely, and actionable financial information.

This is a unique opportunity to gain broad exposure to all aspects of FP&A in a fast-growing organization — perfect for someone with strong Excel skills, a growth mindset, and an appetite for continuous learning.

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES:


Budgeting & Forecasting

  • Support the Director and Head of FP&A in the annual budgeting process and new rolling forecast framework.
  • Maintain financial planning systems (Workday Adaptive), ensuring accuracy and data integrity.
  • Coordinate budgeting and forecasting calendars, meetings, and deliverables across Astra and its operating companies.

Reporting & Analytics

  • Prepare consolidated monthly and quarterly financial reports, including KPI dashboards in Domo.
  • Conduct variance analyses on Astra vertical expenses and vendor spend.
  • Prepare the first draft of Astra’s monthly executive financial deck and reporting package for leadership review.
  • Schedule and support monthly internal financial review meetings.

Process Improvement

  • Identify and implement process efficiencies, automation, and reporting enhancements to improve accuracy and timeliness.
  • Participate in at least one Continuous Improvement Process (CIP) per quarter across Astra functions.

Strategic Support & Ad Hoc Analysis

  • Support value creation initiatives and other special projects in collaboration with FP&A leadership.
  • Conduct field and office visits to Astra’s operating companies to strengthen business understanding and support financial analysis.

QUALIFICATIONS & EXPERIENCES:

  • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field.
  • 0–2 years of experience in FP&A, corporate finance, accounting, or similar analytical role (internship experience welcome).
  • Strong analytical skills with proficiency in Excel and familiarity with financial modeling and reporting tools.
  • Excellent attention to detail, organizational skills, and ability to manage multiple priorities and deadlines.
  • Curious, coachable, and eager to learn — with a strong drive to improve processes and create efficiencies.
  • Comfortable working cross-functionally and presenting data in a clear, structured manner.
  • Experience with tools like Workday Adaptive or Domo is a plus but not required.

REPORTING STRUCTURE & TRAVEL:
This role reports directly to the Head of FP&A and will provide significant exposure to Astra’s finance and executive leadership teams, as well as to operating company leaders across the Astra platform.


Occasional travel (approximately 10%) may be required for on-site visits and collaboration with OpCo teams.

COMPENSATION:
We believe in rewarding our talent with a competitive compensation package and benefits that reflect our commitment to our people.
The salary range for this position starts at $70,000–$80,000 per year, with higher compensation available for candidates who bring additional professional experience or are based in higher-cost geographic locations.
This role also includes a discretionary annual performance-based bonus.

LOCATION:
This Boulder, Colorado–based role follows a hybrid work model, requiring regular time in the office while providing flexibility to work from home as needed.
We are also open to candidates located in the Charlotte, NC, or Orlando, FL areas.
