Side work as a financial analyst: what to know

Financial analysts are hired part time for work a busy finance team keeps postponing: a cleaner forecast model, a board pack that tells one story, a variance analysis that explains the numbers instead of repeating them. These tasks are usually one-off, with a clear deliverable and a review call at the end.

The skills that sell are modelling discipline and writing. A model that someone else can open, follow and update is worth more than a clever one. If you work in a bank or a fund, check the personal dealing and outside-interest rules before you start; many firms ask for written approval even when the side task has nothing to do with markets.

In our data: 1,920 open tasks across the 4 roles that fit a financial analyst, 67% of them remote. The typical senior rate for FP&A Analyst is $90 in the US, £40 in the UK, CA$65 in Canada and €50 in Germany an hour, before the company's 15% fee. The other roles that fit are Financial Model Reviewer, Treasury & Cash-Flow Analyst, AI Evaluator: Finance. Most of these tasks are sized for 4 to 10 hours a week. Rates come from official wage statistics aged to October 2026; see the full table by country.
