What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an FP&A-focused role where I can own budgeting, forecasting, variance analysis, and Ind AS-compliant financial reporting, lead teams, and use SAP and analytical dashboards to support strategic business decisions.

I’m a results-driven finance professional with 5+ years of experience in the finance industry, focused on Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A), financial reporting, and team leadership. I’m semi-qualified Chartered Accountant with expertise in SAP ERP, financial modeling, MIS reporting, and Ind AS compliance, and I thrive on turning numbers into decisions.

In my most recent role as a Senior Executive - FP&A Consultant (Quess Corp. Ltd., client: Reliance Brands Ltd.), I led FP&A activities for luxury fashion brands, built MIS dashboards with variance analysis and performance commentary, and finalized monthly, quarterly, and annual accounts including Balance Sheet, P&L, and Cash Flow Statements with Ind AS 116 lease accounting. I also managed AP/AR aging and GL scrutiny in SAP, and developed financial models for store waterfall analysis and capex projections (payback period, IRR, EBITDA).

Earlier, at ABNJ & Co., I prepared financial statements across multiple client portfolios, handled income tax return filing and tax planning strategies, and led a team of 4 professionals. I’ve also advanced my capabilities through self-directed learning like the McKinsey forward Programme, alongside certifications in equity derivatives, research analytics, and investment banking job simulation—strengthening my strategic, analytical, and stakeholder communication approach.
