    A high-growth company in the financial services sector is seeking an energetic, take-charge Financial Planning and Analysis professional to join their team! This role is instrumental in supporting financial performance, budgeting, forecasting, and business planning. This is not an operational finance role; as we need someone who can drive change, be a self-starter with strong modeling and grit.

    Financial Analysis & Performance Management:

    • Develop and monitor key performance indicators (KPIs) to track financial and operational success.
    • Analyze business trends, market dynamics, and internal data to identify opportunities for growth and efficiency.
    • Conduct scenario analysis, risk assessment, and financial modeling to support decision-making.
    • Assist in driving productivity and cost-efficiency initiatives across departments.

    Budgeting, Forecasting & Reporting:

    • Support the preparation and management of annual budgets, long-term financial plans, and rolling forecasts.
    • Present financial reports, insights, and recommendations to leadership.
    • Ensure accuracy, consistency, and transparency in financial reporting.
    • Assist in implementing best practices and automation tools to enhance FP&A processes.

    Cross-Functional Collaboration:

    • Partner with Accounting to ensure financial integrity, compliance, and alignment in reporting.
    • Work closely with Capital Markets on debt financing, liquidity planning, and investment strategies.
    • Act as a financial advisor to business unit leaders to drive operational and financial excellence.

    Competencies & Skills

    • Strong knowledge of financial modeling, forecasting, and business analytics.
    • Experience working in partnership with Accounting and Capital Markets teams.
    • Understanding of financial statements, GAAP principles, and investment analysis.
    • Exceptional analytical, strategic thinking, and problem-solving skills.
    • Excellent communication and presentation abilities, with experience engaging leadership.
    • Strong ability to manage competing priorities and drive results under tight deadlines.
    • Familiarity with ERP systems, business intelligence tools, and financial planning software.
    • Advanced proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite, particularly Excel and PowerPoint.
    • Ability to work independently, prioritize tasks, and remain highly productive in a fast-paced environment.
    • Detail-oriented with a proactive approach to problem-solving and decision-making.
    • Strong team player with the ability to work effectively in a cooperative and diverse environment.

    Education & Experience

    • Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field (MBA or CFA preferred).
    • 5+ years of experience in FP&A, corporate finance, or a related field.
