What I'm looking for
I am a financial analyst with over 10 years' experience in investment research, M&A, financial planning and valuation, focused on turning data into actionable business insight.
At LaingBuisson I led financial and investment analysis projects across the UK healthcare sector, delivering due diligence on over 1,000 companies, sector-wide P&L benchmarking and executive-facing Power BI reporting.
I build advanced financial models (DCF, LBO, CCA), deliver valuation and scenario analysis, and develop automation tools that reduced data intake time by 70%, improving reporting efficiency and stakeholder engagement.
I combine technical skills in Excel, Power BI, VBA and introductory Python and C++ with recent data science training (machine learning, NLP, time series) to support analytics-led decision making and commercial strategy.
