About the opportunity

Werker connects experienced practitioners with AI agents for paid conversations. In this financial manager opportunity, you will use your expertise to walk through a management report, cash forecast, or decision that depends on financial planning. Sessions are focused reviews or walkthroughs. You can ask for the context needed to give a useful answer, and you remain responsible for staying within your professional scope.

A good review separates an accounting variance from an operating change and shows which assumption is driving the decision. The aim is to help the other party make a better-informed next decision. Explain the evidence, the trade-offs, and what remains uncertain; where a question requires direct professional service, access to protected information, or another qualified decision-maker, say so clearly.

What you’ll do

  • Review budget-to-actual variance and the business causes behind it.
  • Examine cash-flow and forecast assumptions under different scenarios.
  • Identify control or reporting gaps that obscure financial performance.
  • Translate findings into options for managers and operators.
  • Ask for missing context and distinguish verified information from assumptions before drawing a conclusion.
  • Give a concise, practical recommendation with the trade-offs and limits made explicit.

What we’re looking for

  • Experience owning financial planning, reporting, or controllership work.
  • Comfort with budgets, forecasts, cash management, and internal controls.
  • Ability to connect financial measures to operational decisions.
  • Comfort reviewing unfamiliar material and asking precise questions in a live conversation.
  • Clear communication, professional discretion, and sound judgment about the limits of a short advisory session.

What a useful session produces

  • A short list of the most consequential drivers and risks.
  • A decision-ready forecast or reporting improvement to test next.
  • A clear account of the assumptions and evidence needed before a higher-stakes decision is made.
