Senior Finance Analyst

We are looking for a dedicated Senior Finance Analyst (FA) to work closely with finance unit leaders to help the business leaders align financial plans with corporate goals and objectives.

The FA will report directly to the Head of FP&A and will be a key stakeholder in influencing the short and long-term strategic direction of the business lines through insightful and accurate analyses. The ideal candidate will be a strategic thinker; a thought-leader in defining, driving and executing the functions’ financial planning; have strong analytical skills; be able to work with business leaders to derive and explain expense allocation; and possess the ability to work with various levels of the organization in support of goals and objectives.

• Provide value-added insight into the business.
• Provide monthly reporting packages that include full financial analysis, comprehensive key performance indicator (KPI) reporting, unit economics, operational dashboards, analysis of key business trends, actual vs. budget variance, and comprehensive executive-level explanation of differences.

• Collaborate on annual budget and monthly forecasts.
• Partner closely with key stakeholders across the business and drive analytical excellence to support financial discipline and thoughtfulness throughout the business.
• Track and monitor key operation metrics used to drive the business to greater efficiency.
• Provide financial modelling and analysis and other on-going support for new product development, long-term contracts, and ad-hoc financial projects.
