We are seeking a motivated and detail-oriented Finance Manager to join our Finance & Accounting team. This individual contributor role ideally has at least five years of experience in corporate finance, strategic analysis, and cross-functional collaboration.

This role will be accountable for modeling and forecasting the Balance Sheet and Statement of Cash Flows to ensure a complete and accurate three-statement model.

• Balance Sheet Modeling: Lead the maintenance and continuous enhancement of the Balance Sheet forecast, ensuring it articulates the financial impact of all relevant inputs and influences, including incorporating leading indicators into the forecast.

• Integration & Validation: Ensure complete integration between the Income Statement, Cash Flow Statement, and Balance Sheet within the financial models.

• Asset & Liability Management: Oversee the forecasting of critical Balance Sheet components, particularly the management of working capital accounts, to optimize operational efficiency and minimize risk.

• Due Diligence Leadership: Lead and manage the end-to-end financial due diligence process for all potential M&A activity. This includes coordinating data requests, managing virtual data room (VDR) review, and managing the analysis performed by internal teams and external advisors (e.g., auditors, investment banks).

• Valuation & Modeling: Own the creation and maintenance of detailed financial models for acquisition targets, including valuation models, pro forma financial statements, synergy models, and Quality of Earnings (QoE) analyses.

• Post-Acquisition Integration Planning: Develop detailed financial integration plans in partnership with operational teams, focusing on aligning accounting policies, tracking future synergies, and establishing clear financial reporting immediately post-closing.

• Stakeholder Communication: Prepare and present clear, concise, and compelling due diligence findings, valuation summaries, and strategic recommendations to the executive leadership team, Private Equity partners, and internal deal sponsors.
   

Professional Qualifications:

• Education: Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, or a related field.
