Finance Analyst Jobs in Arizona: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a finance analyst in Arizona?
A bachelor's degree in finance, accounting, or economics is the standard starting point for finance analyst roles in Arizona. Arizona does not require a state-issued license to work as a finance analyst, but employers across Phoenix and Scottsdale increasingly favor candidates who hold or are pursuing the CFA designation through the CFA Institute. Entry candidates benefit from internship experience with Arizona's major banking, healthcare, or real estate firms and strong proficiency in Excel and financial modeling software.
How much do finance analysts make in Arizona?
Finance analysts in Arizona earn a median of about $93,540 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $62,340 for the lowest 10% to over $161,870 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire finance analysts in Arizona?
Employers hiring finance analysts in Arizona right now include Raytheon, MUFG, and Corning, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. Arizona's concentration of corporate headquarters in the Phoenix metro, alongside large healthcare systems and financial services firms, keeps demand for finance analysts consistent throughout the year.
Which Arizona cities have the most finance analyst jobs?
Phoenix, Tucson, and Chandler are the Arizona cities with the most finance analyst openings. Phoenix leads by volume because it hosts the regional headquarters of major banks, insurance companies, and healthcare networks, while Scottsdale and Tempe draw finance roles tied to technology firms, real estate developers, and the growing fintech sector anchored by Arizona State University's innovation ecosystem.
Are there remote finance analyst jobs in Arizona?
Yes, and more than most fields, given that finance analyst work is desk-based and data-driven. About 82% of finance analyst openings tied to Arizona are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting the role's strong compatibility with distributed work arrangements. FP&A and corporate finance positions tend to carry the most remote flexibility, while roles tied to on-site operations or treasury functions are more likely to require in-office presence.
How can I get hired as a finance analyst in Arizona with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying for financial analyst associate or junior analyst positions at Arizona's large healthcare systems, such as Banner Health or Dignity Health, and at regional banks that run structured rotational programs for new graduates. Lateral moves from accounting, business analyst, or financial operations roles at these same employers are a common way in. Completing the first CFA exam level or earning an Excel or Power BI certification strengthens an entry-level application noticeably in Arizona's competitive Phoenix-area market.
Where can I find and apply to finance analyst jobs in Arizona?
You can find and apply to finance analyst jobs in Arizona on Migrate Mate, which lists current Arizona openings updated regularly. Search the listings, find roles that match your experience and preferred location, and apply directly to the ones that fit.
