ABOUT BRANCH Branch is on a mission to make insurance more accessible, so more people can be covered. We innovate using data, tech, and automation to simplify insurance from start to finish—we eliminated inaccurate quotes in favor of real prices, created a better way to bundle, and cut unnecessary costs in the traditional insurance process. Then we pass those savings along to our members. Basically, we’re doing insurance the way it was meant to be. But we didn’t just create the insurance we’ve always wanted, we also created the company we’ve always wanted to work for. As we redefine insurance, we also want to redefine what it means to work in insurance. Find out for yourself. Branch is open to candidates located in AL, AK, AZ, AR, CO, DE, FL, GA, ID, IL, IN, IA, KS, KY, LA, ME, MD, MI, MN, MS, MO, NE, NV, NH, NM, NY, NC, ND, OH, OK, PA, RI, SC, SD, TN, TX, UT, VA, WV, WI, and WY, unless the role is specific to a location. Applicants must be currently authorized to work in the United States on a full-time basis. We are unable to sponsor or take over sponsorship of an employment visa at this time. Branch is remote first, with most Branchers choosing to work from home. Our headquarters are located in Columbus, Ohio, where we come together from time to time to build relationships and connect with each other in real life. We also have office space in Columbia and Concordia, Missouri as well as Forreston, Illinois. Once a year, the entire company gathers for “BranchFest”, a highlight of the year for many Branchers. ABOUT THE ROLE The Finance Analyst owns the recurring financial reporting for Branch's claims organization. This is the person who takes claims data from raw inputs all the way to a finished, accurate, on-time report, every month and every quarter, and then makes that reporting better over time. You will own a monthly report and a larger quarterly report on claims performance: efficiency metrics, expense components, and the revenue streams tied to claims. You will work across the claims, accounting, actuarial, and data analytics teams to gather what you need, and you will be the person who can explain what the numbers say about how claims is running. This is a build-and-own seat. In your first 90 days you will learn the metrics and the data. By 90 days you will run the recurring reporting process semi-independently, with your manager reviewing and guiding rather than driving. Past that, you will take on open-ended analytics and improve the reporting itself. This is not a run-the-template role. It is for someone who wants to own a deliverable, get the details right, and keep improving it. WHAT YOU'LL DO Reporting and Ownership - Own monthly and quarterly reporting on claims performance, including efficiency metrics, expense components, and revenue streams such as TPA fees, recoveries, subrogation, and salvage. - Take reporting from raw data to finished deliverable, on time, accurately, and with the right stakeholders pulled in when data is missing. - Identify anomalies in the data and chase them down before they reach the report. Analysis and Improvement - Conduct detailed analysis of expense components and revenue-generating activities to support accurate, timely financial reporting. - Identify trends and patterns in claims data to support decision-making and process improvement. - Assist in developing financial models and tools that improve claims analysis and forecasting. - Run continuous improvement on the recurring deliverables, including automating manual steps so errors do not recur. Collaboration - Work closely with the claims, accounting, actuarial, and data analytics teams to gather data on cycle time, processing efficiency, and other KPIs. - Present complex information clearly to both technical and non-technical stakeholders. - Stay informed on industry practices and regulatory changes that affect reporting. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR - 2 to 4 years as a finan
