Kidde Global Solutions · FP&A reporting
As KGS stands up its own systems apart from Carrier, the brand P&L that once rolled into a larger parent now stands on its own, from a Kidde alarm on a retail shelf to an Edwards panel on a hospital project.
You're hiring a Sr Reporting & Analytics Analyst. Here's the kind of reporting that role would own, built the way our team would build it.
Public context: KGS was formed when Carrier sold its commercial and residential fire business, with brands including Kidde, Kidde Commercial, Edwards, GST, Badger, Gloria and Aritech, to an affiliate of Lone Star Funds in a transaction valued at about $3 billion.

One report page an FP&A team could open on close day. Every slicer recalculates every tile, chart and note below. Click a brand on the alarm or a cell in the grid to filter.
Seen from below. Vent slot depth is each brand's share of net sales. The inner ring shows forecast accuracy by region. The LED reads variance to plan.
Forecast is the one-month-ahead view submitted before each month opened. $ in millions unless marked.
Gross profit dollars. Volume, mix, price, material cost and freight add up to the actual.
1 − weighted MAPE, measured at brand × region × channel × month. Follows the channel and month slicers; the selected brand and region are outlined.
Each card pairs what is holding up with where an FP&A team would look next.

A report like this is only as dependable as the people who keep it running after close. We staff it so it never rests on one person.
A lead developer owns the build: the semantic model, the DAX behind forecast accuracy and the margin bridge, and the refresh.
A backup project manager who also develops in Power BI knows the same model, joins the weekly calls, and can ship a fix the week the lead is out.
Principal oversight from our founder keeps the work tied to what FP&A leadership needs to see.
Power BI is the deliverable. If some readers don't hold Power BI licenses, we can also publish the same report as a no-license custom web version.

The posting lists $119,050–$140,059 a year for one analyst. That hire may be exactly right. Many of our clients use us alongside their analyst, so the build moves faster and the knowledge sits with more than one person.
If you hire the analyst, we can build the foundation with them and step back once they own it.
