Job description

At Gratia, we believe potential is globally distributed, but opportunity is not. Our mission is to turn great talent's potential into fulfilling global careers through professional development and tech-enabled platforms. We bridge the gap between ambitious companies and hands-on experts who deliver real results instead of just theoretical plans.

Gratia is a remote-first, apprenticeship-based platform where opportunity is defined by what you can do and deliver. Our clients include global names like USA Today Co., Endeavor, and New York Life. We maintain an 88.2 Net Promoter Score because we focus on rigorous execution, not just high-level advice.

We are currently staffing for a new engagement supporting a specialized advisory firm. In this role, you will serve as the primary analytical resource for deep-dive financial research within the Aerospace & Defense (A&D) and Maintenance, Repair, and Overhaul (MRO) supply chains.

What you'll be doing

  • Review and cross-check complex financial figures across full company reports to identify inconsistencies and reporting errors.

  • Conduct thorough financial and operational analysis focused on aviation, defense systems, and MRO supply chains.

  • Write clear, concise executive summaries that translate raw financial data and discrepancies into easy-to-understand insights.

  • Analyze historical financial performance to support strategic decision-making and business evaluations.

What we're looking for

  • Direct experience in the Aerospace & Defense sector

  • 4+ years of analyst experience with deep fluency in reading and interpreting financial statements. Experience from an MBB (McKinsey, Bain, BCG), Big 4, or another recognised firm is a plus.

  • Proven ability to cross-check figures and spot errors across lengthy financial reports and synthesize complex discrepancies into clear executive narratives.

  • A flexible schedule that allows for a consistent daily overlap with US business hours.

Why Gratia is Your Next Step

  • Flexible freelance model: This is a long-term contract/freelance role designed for independent professionals who want the freedom of private practice without the isolation of working alone. We offer both part-time and full-time engagement options.

  • Experience-based rates: Compensation is tailored to your expertise.

  • A clear path forward: We believe in moving from "doing" to "leading." Youโ€™ll have a defined trajectory to gain specialized expertise and leadership skills.
