Chinaza Nnolim
@chinazannolim
Financial analyst specializing in Hyperion-driven forecasting and reporting.
What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented financial and systems analyst with over five years of experience in financial reporting, forecasting, budgeting, and Oracle Hyperion systems. I specialize in configuring, maintaining, and optimizing Hyperion Planning and Essbase applications to streamline consolidation and forecasting processes.
I translate business requirements into technical solutions, integrate data across platforms, and develop automated reporting tools that improve accuracy and deliver actionable insights. My hands-on experience includes building quantitative forecasting models, preparing real estate proformas (NPV, IRR, DCF, payback), and producing monthly and quarterly financial statements.
I collaborate closely with cross-functional teams and accounting to ensure reliable, compliant reporting, prioritize competing demands under tight deadlines, and recommend improvements based on variance and trend analysis. I bring strong Excel modeling, Oracle/Hyperion expertise, and practical Power BI experience to drive data-driven decisions.
