QUINCY MUPARUTSA
@quincymuparutsa
Strategic finance partner using FP&A and modeling to drive profitable decisions.
South AfricaWhat I'm looking for
I’m a Strategic Finance professional with over ten years of experience supporting business performance through financial planning, analysis, and commercial insight. I work closely with leadership teams to improve profitability, strengthen cash flow, and guide decision-making.
My core strength is turning strategy into numbers—owning FP&A, budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis, then delivering management reporting that makes trade-offs clear. I’ve built financial models ranging from DCF and LBO to three-statement models, with a strong focus on investment analysis and valuation.
In deal-related and investment contexts, I’ve developed acquisition models to evaluate capital structure, debt capacity, and investor returns, including achieving an internal rate of return above 25%. I also analyze unit economics, scalability, and cross-border growth to support market expansion and capital allocation decisions across African markets.
In leadership roles, I’ve improved operating performance by strengthening financial controls and performance tracking, and by reducing cycle times and costs. As an example, I reduced the financial close cycle from ten days to four, improved working capital by reducing debtor days from 45 to 30, and led budgeting and forecasting that increased regional profitability by 8%.
