As a Senior Finance Analyst, you will collaborate extensively with business, reporting, and other teams to deeply understand requirements and conduct thorough data analysis. A key aspect of this role involves driving automation and enhancing efficiency across finance and reporting functions.

You will take the lead in managing project transitions from various teams, implementing improvements post-transition, and identifying opportunities for digitizing and streamlining manual activities. Your responsibilities will include analyzing transactions to pinpoint root causes and variances, recommending corrective actions to management, and designing scalable, automated reporting solutions that align precisely with user needs.

This position demands the ability to tackle complex challenges, champion process improvements through automation, and deliver impactful, analytics-driven business insights. Key duties include generating standard reports (e.g., Operations statement, Global Revenue reports), resolving reporting issues, and handling complex ad hoc report requests from stakeholders promptly. You will also actively participate in revenue and financial planning processes, ensure robust review mechanisms are in place, and manage multiple projects concurrently, coordinating effectively across different service lines.

To excel in this role, you should possess advanced knowledge and more than 5 years of experience as a data analyst and/or with SQL Server. A minimum of 3 years of working knowledge in Power BI for visualization is essential.

Hands-on expertise in Power Automate (both Cloud and Desktop) is required for building end-to-end automations in reporting processes, including monitoring and exception handling. You must demonstrate advanced VBA/Macros experience, covering the design of reusable tools, performance optimization, controls, and documentation.

Familiarity with Python for automation or analytics will be considered a significant advantage. You should also possess strong statistical or data-driven problem-solving skills, a solid understanding of basic accounting concepts, and excellent communication abilities. Proficiency in MS Excel, a clear understanding of financial reporting goals and basic process flows, and the capacity to interpret numbers and draw inferences are crucial. Strong interpersonal skills, including the ability to mentor junior analysts, are highly valued. A Bachelor's or Master's degree in a related field is required.
