Be a Tar Heel!
A global higher education leader in innovative teaching, research and public service, the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill consistently ranks as one of the nation’s top public universities. Known for its beautiful campus, world-class medical care, commitment to the arts and top athletic programs, Carolina is an ideal place to teach, work and learn.
One of the best college towns and best places to live in the United States, Chapel Hill has diverse social, cultural, recreation and professional opportunities that span the campus and community.
University employees can choose from a wide range of professional training opportunities for career growth, skill development and lifelong learning and enjoy exclusive perks for numerous retail, restaurant and performing arts discounts, savings on local child care centers and special rates on select campus events. UNC-Chapel Hill offers full-time employees a comprehensive benefits package, paid leave, and a variety of health, life and retirement plans and additional programs that support a healthy work/life balance.
Primary Purpose of Organizational Unit
The Finance Data Analytics and Reporting team creates roadmaps for technology and analytic tools necessary for the University’s budget and planning needs. This includes providing critical assistance in data analytics and financial modeling, developing templates, dashboards and long-range financial models for the division. The team also develops standardized data for effective and consistent finance and budget reporting throughout campus and for the UNC System, as well as lead the development and implementation of reporting and data warehouse capabilities, using existing tools and acquiring new systems to achieve the University’s evolving financial objectives.
Position Summary
This position is eligible for a hybrid work arrangement that includes a partially remote work location, consistent with System Office policy. UNC-Chapel Hill employees are generally required to reside within a reasonable commuting distance of their assigned duty station.
The Senior Financial Analytics & Reporting Analyst serves as the senior individual contributor within the Financial Data Analytics & Reporting team, supporting the development, maintenance, and enhancement of financial reporting, analytics, dashboards, and data solutions that support the University’s budget, planning, and operational decision-making processes.
The position partners with Finance, Human Resources, ITS, and campus stakeholders to deliver accurate, consistent, and actionable financial information. The role applies advanced analytical expertise to financial reporting, budgeting, forecasting, data validation, and business intelligence initiatives.
This role requires extensive knowledge of UNC-Chapel Hill financial systems, business processes, and institutional data structures, as well as a comprehensive understanding of how financial and HR data interact to support budgeting, compensation analysis, position management, and long-range financial forecasting. The position routinely integrates information from financial, payroll, and human resources systems to provide a complete view of the University’s financial and operational performance.
Deep understanding of the University’s chartfield structure, funding sources, position funding methodology, budget development processes, and institutional financial controls is essential to ensure the accuracy and consistency of reporting used by campus leadership and external stakeholders. The position must understand how employee and position data flow through payroll, budgeting, and financial systems and how changes in workforce activity affect institutional budgets, forecasts, and financial performance.
Because the role supports critical recurring financial reporting, annual budget development, workforce planning, financial forecasting, and executive decision-making, a thorough working knowledge of UNC-Chapel Hill-specific financial and HR processes is necessary to ensure continuity of operations and maintain the integrity of institutional reporting. This position provides expert guidance on financial business processes, reporting requirements, data governance, and interpretation of complex financial and workforce data, enabling campus leaders to make informed decisions based on reliable and consistent information.

Financial Analyst Jobs in North Carolina: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a financial analyst in North Carolina?
Most financial analyst positions in North Carolina require a bachelor's degree in finance, accounting, economics, or a closely related field. North Carolina does not mandate a state-issued license specifically for financial analysts, though roles involving investment advice may require FINRA registration such as the Series 65 or Series 66. Many employers in Charlotte and Raleigh prioritize candidates who are pursuing or have earned the CFA charter, which signals technical depth and is widely recognized across the state's banking and corporate finance sectors.
How much do financial analysts make in North Carolina?
Financial analysts in North Carolina earn a median of about $102,390 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $61,670 for the lowest 10% to over $167,250 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire financial analysts in North Carolina?
Employers hiring financial analysts in North Carolina right now include Augmentis, The Copper River Family of Companies, and Compass Group USA, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of September 2026. North Carolina's concentration of major bank headquarters, pharmaceutical companies, and technology firms in Charlotte, Raleigh, and the Research Triangle Park area means steady, year-round demand for financial analysts across multiple industries.
Which North Carolina cities have the most financial analyst jobs?
The cities with the most financial analyst openings in North Carolina are Charlotte, Raleigh, and Cary. Charlotte drives the largest share of demand as home to major bank headquarters and financial services operations, while Raleigh and Durham benefit from the Research Triangle's mix of technology companies, pharmaceutical firms, and university-affiliated research institutions that all maintain in-house finance teams.
Are there remote financial analyst jobs in North Carolina?
Yes, and more than most fields. Financial analysis is largely desk-based and data-driven, which makes it well-suited to remote arrangements. About 67% of financial analyst openings tied to North Carolina are remote or hybrid as of September 2026, reflecting the role's compatibility with distributed work. FP&A, budgeting, and financial reporting positions tend to attract the highest share of remote and hybrid postings.
How can I get hired as a financial analyst in North Carolina with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is applying for junior or associate financial analyst roles at North Carolina's large corporate employers, many of whom run structured rotational programs or new-graduate finance tracks. Bank of America and Truist Financial operate analyst development programs in Charlotte that are designed for candidates with limited professional experience. Lateral moves from accounting, audit, or financial operations roles are common, and earning the CFA Level I or completing a financial modeling certificate significantly strengthens a new candidate's application in this market.
Where can I find and apply to financial analyst jobs in North Carolina?
You can find and apply to financial analyst jobs in North Carolina on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from employers actively hiring across Charlotte, Raleigh, Durham, and other markets in the state. Find roles that fit your experience and apply directly.
