Randall Reed
@randallreed
Finance Business Partner and FP&A analyst specializing in executive reporting, forecasting, and automated financial planning.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Finance Business Partner focused on delivering clear, executive-level financial analysis that supports strategic decision-making. At Ryder System, Inc., I prepare and present month-end results and annual planning packages to the CFO and CEO.
I developed and automated financial reporting using Excel and Office Connect to strengthen month-end close, year-end reporting, annual planning, and ad hoc analyses. I also leverage Workday Adaptive Planning to analyze budgets and forecast scenarios, along with budgeting, quarterly forecasts, variance analysis, and expense analysis.
Beyond planning, I generate financial reports and supporting schedules for quarterly earnings reporting and executive review. I also build financial schedules and visualizations in Workiva to support quarterly earnings reporting and SEC filing preparation.
Previously, as a Financial Planning Analyst II (FP&A) at Stop and Shop, I designed and maintained reports tied to Underlying Operating Profit (UOP) and used Excel, Power BI, SAP, BPC, and enterprise databases for daily performance reporting and KPI-based insights. Earlier roles at Bose Corporation and Arbella Insurance strengthened my forecasting, profitability, and executive communication skills using systems like SAP and Workday, culminating in a Bachelor of Science in Economics and Finance from Bentley University.
