Strategic FP&A leader driving budgeting, forecasting, and financial insight.
What I'm looking for
I am a strategic FP&A leader with over 10 years' experience converting complex, multi-currency data into clear insights for executives and boards. I deliver budgeting, forecasting, and multi-year planning in mission-driven, grant-funded environments.
I design dynamic financial models, scenario analyses, and Power BI dashboards to improve visibility and decision-making. I have led process improvements across finance systems, streamlined reporting cycles, and strengthened controls to boost organizational resilience.
As an inclusive people manager, I mentor and develop high-performing teams, set clear performance objectives, and foster predictable, sustainable ways of working. I partner closely with programs, development, and accounting to align resources with impact and funding availability.
I bring hands-on experience overseeing compliance, procurement, operations, IT/security oversight, and stakeholder engagement across multi-location organizations. I aim to translate financial insight into actionable guidance that enables strategy execution and sustainable growth.
