Produce analytics and reporting for quarter-end results, Board of Directors reports, executive management presentations, quarterly competitor reviews, and investment reports. Manage Ruby model configurations throughout forecast cycles, maintaining data integrity and consistency across planning periods. Present financial performance analysis and strategic recommendations to senior management and key stakeholders, translating data into clear business decisions. Embed risk capital estimation and capital usage metrics into management reporting to support accountability and informed decision-making across the firm. Engage with internal peers, regulators, and professional organizations to uphold the highest standards of financial reporting and governance. Required Qualifications & Skills 10 or more years of experience in financial planning and analysis, with a background in financial services.

Demonstrated people leadership experience, including performance management, team development, and building accountability. Sound judgement in risk assessment, with a consistent commitment to compliance, governance, and ethical conduct.
