Role Summary

We are seeking a proactive and highly adaptable Finance Business Partner to join our FP&A team, supporting the APAC and MEENA boards. This role covers two regions with complex and different business realities, requiring a strong ability to navigate diverse markets, operating models, and stakeholder needs. The successful candidate will own the FP&A calendar, lead forecasting and reporting, manage the P&L for both regions, and provide insightful financial support to Managing Directors, and finance teams.

This position demands both analytical rigour and commercial acumen, combined with the interpersonal skills to translate financial reports into clear business implications (“the so what”) and advise senior leaders on the decisions that matter most.

Lead the quarterly forecasting process, ensuring accurate and timely delivery for both APAC and MEENA.
Oversee monthly management reporting, including full ownership of the P&L for APAC and MEENA.

Coordinate and deliver the annual budgeting process, balancing the unique strategic priorities of each board.

Develop tools, models, and dashboards to enhance forecasting accuracy and provide tailored insight by region.

Business Partnering

Act as a trusted finance business partner to the APAC and MEENA senior leadership, providing clarity on performance and forward-looking analysis that supports decision-making.
Go beyond reporting by helping leaders understand “the so what” behind the numbers, translating data into practical insights and actions.
Advise Managing Directors and senior stakeholders on key financial and strategic decisions, adapting recommendations to the different commercial realities of each market.
Support the development of business cases and commercial projects, ensuring robust financial analysis underpins strategic choices.

Project & Regional Support

Provide financial oversight on significant projects across the regions.
Contribute to project reviews, offering insight into budget adherence, risks, and opportunities.
Support client and donor financial management, reporting, and analysis on an ad-hoc basis, ensuring accountability and transparency for external stakeholders.

Skills & Experience

Strong background in FP&A, financial reporting, and forecasting, ideally across global environments.
Experience owning and managing P&L for distinct regions/business units with differing dynamics.
Proven ability to influence and support senior leaders, tailoring insights to complex and diverse stakeholder needs.
Ability to move beyond data to explain the implications of financial performance (“the so what”) and provide clear recommendations.
Advanced Excel and financial modelling skills.
Proficiency with budget planning and forecasting software/tools.
Experience with ERP/BI systems and strong data analysis skills.
Exceptional communication and stakeholder management skills, with cultural sensitivity and adaptability across APAC and MEENA.
Strong commercial mindset, able to evaluate opportunities and build robust business cases.
