Supplemental Information
About Mines & Golden, CO
When the world looks for answers, the world looks to Mines.
Colorado School of Mines is a top-ranked public university solving the grand challenges facing our society, particularly those related to the Earth, energy and the environment. Founded in 1874 with specialties in mining and metallurgy, Mines’ scope and mission have continually expanded to meet the needs of industry and society. Today, we are the No. 40 public university in the nation, recognized for our innovation and undergraduate teaching in science, technology engineering and math (U.S. News and World Report, 2026).
Mines graduates are change makers, boundary breakers and problem solvers. Since our earliest days, a Mines education has been and continues to be a transformational opportunity, with one of the strongest returns on investment out there for talented STEM students of all backgrounds.
At the same time, Mines faculty members are pushing their fields in new directions, whether that’s manufacturing, space resources, quantum engineering, carbon capture or more. Mines was recently classified as a R1 “Very High Activity” research institution by Carnegie, a notable feat for any university but particularly one of our size.
That size – roughly 8,200 undergraduate and graduate students – also translates to a close-knit campus community, where employees have opportunities to get involved in multiple ways, continued professional learning is valued and everyone can make an impact.
Community Alliance groups bring together employees for professional development, networking, and community involvement, and all Mines employees also have access to the wealth of activities happening every day on campus – nationally-renowned speakers, special events and Mines traditions like Engineering Days, just to name a few.
And don’t get us started on our hometown. We are located in the heart of Golden, Colorado -with its charming historic downtown and nearby hiking trails – and in close proximity to all that Denver and the Rocky Mountains have to offer. That includes the sunny, high-altitude climate and outstanding outdoor recreation opportunities that make the Denver area an ideal place to live, work and play.
Are you looking for an inspiring, mission-driven workplace where you can contribute to solving the world’s problems and educating the next generation of change makers? Are you an individual who values a community where our individual perspectives and experiences enrich the educational and work experience?
Look to Mines.

Financial Planning Analyst Jobs in Colorado: Frequently Asked Questions
How do you become a financial planning analyst in Colorado?
Start with a bachelor's degree in finance, accounting, economics, or a closely related field, which is the standard entry point for Colorado employers. Financial planning analyst roles in Colorado do not require a state-issued license, but earning a CPA through the Colorado State Board of Accountancy, a CFA designation, or a CFP certification substantially strengthens your candidacy. Most Colorado employers expect familiarity with financial modeling and enterprise planning software from day one.
How much do financial planning analysts make in Colorado?
Financial planning analysts in Colorado earn a median of about $103,850 a year, based on May 2025 Bureau of Labor Statistics wage data, ranging from around $71,590 for the lowest 10% to over $171,570 for the top 10%. Pay rises with experience, specialty, and employer.
Which companies hire financial planning analysts in Colorado?
Colorado financial planning analyst roles are posted by EchoStar, Loenbro, and Riveron and others right now, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Colorado's mix of Fortune 500 headquarters, large healthcare systems, and defense and aerospace contractors creates consistent year-round demand for financial planning analysts across a range of industries.
Which Colorado cities have the most financial planning analyst jobs?
Denver, Golden, and Colorado Springs have the most financial planning analyst openings in Colorado. Denver leads because it serves as the state's corporate headquarters hub for finance, healthcare, and technology companies, while Boulder's concentration of high-growth tech and biotech firms and Colorado Springs' defense and government contractor base each generate their own sustained pipeline of openings.
Are there remote financial planning analyst jobs in Colorado?
Yes, and more than most fields. About 75% of financial planning analyst openings tied to Colorado are remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting how well the role's core work translates to distributed teams. Budgeting, forecasting, variance analysis, and reporting functions are the most frequently offered in fully remote or hybrid arrangements, particularly at technology and financial services employers.
How can I get hired as a financial planning analyst in Colorado with little or no experience?
The most realistic entry path is securing a financial analyst or junior FP&A associate role at a large Colorado company that runs structured rotational or analyst development programs, such as the healthcare and financial services firms headquartered in the Denver metro. Adjacent roles in accounting, budget coordination, or financial operations at Colorado employers frequently serve as lateral moves into FP&A. Earning the CPA through the Colorado State Board of Accountancy or building a portfolio of financial models gives candidates a concrete edge when competing without direct FP&A experience.
Where can I find and apply to financial planning analyst jobs in Colorado?
You can find and apply to financial planning analyst jobs in Colorado on Migrate Mate, which lists current Colorado openings from employers actively hiring. Find the roles that match your experience and target locations and apply directly to the ones that fit.
