Director, Global FP&A Reporting Center of Excellence (India)

About This Role

This is a rare opportunity to build and lead OneMagnify's Global FP&A Reporting Center of Excellence (COE) from India.
As the leader of this function, you will establish the processes, standards, tools, and talent that enable timely, accurate, and scalable financial reporting across the company.

You will work closely with Finance leadership in the United States and India to deliver executive, board, lender, and management reporting while ensuring the organization has clear visibility into financial performance, risks, and opportunities. Beyond reporting, you will help transform how Finance operates by driving automation, process standardization, and the adoption of AI-enabled solutions that improve reporting efficiency, analytical capability, and decision-making.
This role is ideal for a builder who thrives in ambiguity, enjoys creating scalable processes, and has experience leading reporting, shared services, or center-of-excellence organizations that support global stakeholders across multiple regions and time zones.
