• Executive Presence: High emotional intelligence with the ability to push back, influence, and align cross-functional VP/C-level stakeholders without formal authority.

1. Strategic FP&A & Enterprise Forecasting

• Own the end-to-end Financial Planning and Analysis (FP&A) lifecycle, serving as the ultimate custodian of the business's financial trajectory.
• Orchestrate bottom-up and top-down forecasting cycles by partnering seamlessly with Operations, Technology, Analytics, and Client-Facing departments.
• Ensure all revenue and cost forecasts are rigorously pressure-tested, aligned with corporate growth targets, and optimized for margin expansion.

2. Business Intelligence, Risk Mitigation & Insight Generation

• Deconstruct the business into its core operational and financial levers to establish a proactive, data-driven governance framework.
• Design and implement an executive "early warning system"—setting up automated alerts and real-time dashboards to identify emerging operational risks or margin leakages.
• Translate complex real-time data into strategic insights, empowering business heads to course-correct instantly and capitalize on internal optimization opportunities.

3. Cross-Functional KPI Leadership & Team Management

• Lead, mentor, and quality-control the output of a two-person centralized reporting team, elevating their work from basic data gathering to executive-level synthesis.
• Harmonize fragmented reporting structures by designing comprehensive dashboards that integrate Financial, Operational, HR, and Technological KPIs into a single source of truth.
• Ensure absolute data integrity and narrative clarity before executive distribution, translating technical or operational metrics into compelling business narratives.
• Lead the financial and strategic evaluation of all new market opportunities, product launches, and strategic pursuits.
• Architect robust, standardized financial models and business case templates to determine the ROI, payback period, and strategic viability of prospective investments.
• Act as a vital "gatekeeper" for capital allocation, advising the executive board on strict financial and operational parameters that must be met before a pursuit is greenlit.

• Top-Tier Pedigree: MBA from a premier institution (IIMs, ISB, XLRI, or global equivalents) or CA/CFA charterholder with an exceptional academic track record.
• Relevant Tenure: 6–9 years of progressive experience, with a mandatory background in top-tier Strategy Consulting (MBB, Monitor Deloitte, Strategy&, Kearney) or Investment Banking / Private Equity.
• Industry Nuance: Prior exposure to the Payment Integrity, Healthcare RCM, FinTech, or IT/ITES sectors is highly advantageous but not mandatory.
