FP&A analyst at Compass Group who cut month-end close by 60% and built four Power BI dashboards.

At Compass Group PLC, I owned monthly P&L reporting for a four-site operation, investigated material variances, and presented recommendations to site and director-level leadership. I also maintained forecast models used for senior leadership reporting.

I cut month-end close by 60% by rebuilding the data flow and automating validation in Python and Alteryx; reporting accuracy rose 15% year on year. I built four Power BI dashboards that brought four siloed data sources into one view of performance and KPI trends.

At PwC, I delivered budgets, forecasts, and monthly reporting for three business units, including one with a portfolio above $500m. I reconciled financial data across SAP and Oracle, then automated recurring reporting with SQL, Power BI, and Alteryx, freeing up 15–22 hours a week.

At QNomics, I built revenue models for two external clients under alternative growth and pricing scenarios and presented recommendations to their leadership. I hold an MSc Finance (Merit), am part-qualified CIMA, and bring a computer science background that helps me evaluate AI-generated outputs.
