M&A Data & Financial Analyst (Remote)

Supports Collective Residential's M&A team by maintaining the M&A database in Excel: entering new data as it's received from acquisition targets, logging offers and valuations we've sent, and translating target financial statements into our standard reporting categories.
Responsibilities
Maintain and update the M&A database in Excel, including data received from acquisition targets and data on offers/valuations sent to targets.
Enter new data as deals progress, following the database's existing structure and categories — this is a maintenance role, not a rebuild.

Recategorize and standardize line items from target financials into Collective Residential's standard categories.
Check entries for accuracy and consistency across the database.
Flag anomalies, unclear data, or discrepancies to the M&A team rather than guessing.
Maintain strict confidentiality of all deal, valuation, and target financial data per NDA
