We're looking for a commercially driven finance leader who thrives on solving complex business problems, influencing decisions, and shaping the future of a fast-growing retail business across Asia.
This is not a traditional reporting role.
As our Regional Business Finance Manager (FP&A) you'll partner directly with senior leadership to influence strategic decisions, evaluate investments, optimise business performance, and lead financial planning across multiple markets and global brands. You'll work at the intersection of finance, strategy, retail operations, digital, marketing and commercial teams—turning data into decisions that drive growth.
If you're intellectually curious, commercially astute, and enjoy challenging the status quo, we'd love to hear from you.
What You'll Be Doing
- Partner with senior leadership to drive business strategy, financial planning and commercial decision-making across Asia.
- Lead the annual budgeting, quarterly forecasting and long-range planning process across multiple brands and markets.
- Deliver meaningful financial insights through performance analysis, identifying risks, opportunities and actions to improve profitability.
- Challenge assumptions and influence key stakeholders with data-driven recommendations.
- Build robust financial models to evaluate investments, new business initiatives and strategic opportunities.
- Lead scenario planning, sensitivity analysis and business case evaluations for pricing, marketing, e-commerce, expansion and operational initiatives.
- Partner with Retail, Brand, Commercial, Treasury, Finance Controllers and HQ teams to optimise business performance and capital allocation.
- Monitor investment performance, working capital and cash flow, ensuring funding requirements align with business priorities.
- Drive reporting automation, process improvements and digital transformation within Finance.
- Analyse market trends, competitor performance and macroeconomic indicators to support strategic planning.
- Lead, coach and develop a high-performing team while fostering a collaborative, performance-driven culture.
What We're Looking For
- Degree in Accountancy, Finance or a professional qualification (ACCA, CIMA or CA).
- At least 7 years experience in FP&A, Commercial Finance or Business Finance, preferably within Retail, FMCG or other fast-paced consumer businesses.
- Proven experience partnering with commercial, retail or operations leaders to influence business decisions.
- Strong financial modelling, forecasting and scenario planning capabilities.
- Advanced Excel skills with experience using SAP/BPC, Power BI or similar planning and reporting tools.
- Strong commercial acumen with the ability to simplify complex financial information into actionable insights.
- Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, with confidence engaging senior leaders.
- Experience leading and developing small, high-performing teams.
- Comfortable operating in a fast-paced, dynamic environment with multiple priorities.
