The role?

The Financial Modelling Analyst will serve as a core member of RZR Global's FP&A function, responsible for building and maintaining high-integrity financial models that power forecasting, budgeting, scenario planning, and strategic analysis. This role is critical to improving forecasting accuracy, enhancing planning rigor, and enabling smarter decision-making across the business.

The analyst will own the development of dynamic, driver-based models that link operational metrics to financial outcomes across revenue, gross margin, Opex, and EBITDA. They will partner with the Head of FP&A to support monthly forecasts, annual operating plans (AOP), client margin analysis, cohort-based tracking, and sensitivity models tied to platform, geo, and vertical-level changes.

This role requires expertise in financial modelling principles and comfort navigating high-variance, performance-driven business models such as DSPs. The ideal candidate combines precision, agility, and ownership and the ability to manage complex models independently while iterating quickly in a dynamic environment. Experience with AdTech, digital marketing, or performance-driven revenue models is strongly preferred.

What will you do?

1. Build and Maintain Core Financial Models

• Develop dynamic, driver-based P&L, cash flow, and headcount models with linkages to key business inputs.
• Ensure models are scalable, audit-proof, and capable of supporting rolling forecasts, AOP/Budgets, and long-range planning.
• Build multi-scenario capabilities into models (base, upside, downside), including sensitivity toggles and assumption sheets.
• Maintain documentation of model logic, version history, and key assumptions for transparency and continuity.

2. Lead Forecasting and Budget Modelling Workstreams

• Own the monthly forecast model refresh process across revenue, margin, and operating costs.
• Translate input from sales, product, and operations into updated forecasts, ensuring accuracy and clear rationale for all changes across versions.
• Build the Annual Operating Plan (AOP) model in coordination with Head of FP&A, with bottoms-up inputs and department-level views.
• Track forecast vs actual variance and maintain model discipline to minimize bias and improve forecast accuracy over time.

3. Enable Strategic Analysis

• Partner with cross functional teams to incorporate cohort-level metrics into financial forecasts.
• Support analysis of revenue contribution by client, product line, and platform (iOS/Android), with margin impact.
• Translate business KPIs into forecast drivers and financial implications.

4. Support Investor, Board, and Executive Reporting

• Provide clean, model-backed data and visualizations for investor decks, board materials, and CEO/Leadership briefings.
• Ensure every figure in management reporting has a model trace-back, assumption logic, and audit trail.
• Stress-test and validate outputs before submission to avoid downstream reporting errors or surprises.

5. Build Modelling Discipline Across the FP&A Function

• Enforce consistent model hygiene: minimal hardcoding, cell references documented, and assumptions centralized.
• Standardize naming conventions, formatting, and input-output flows across all FP&A models.
• Serve as the go-to expert for Google Sheets/Microsoft Excel best practices, modelling techniques, and version control.
• Drive a culture of precision, documentation, and responsiveness in all forecasting workstreams.

What are we looking for?

Must-Have Qualifications

• 3–5 years of experience in financial modelling, FP&A, investment banking, corporate finance, or strategic finance roles.
• Strong command of driver-based modelling for P&L, AOP, and multi-scenario planning; able to build from scratch and maintain model integrity under change.
• Deep expertise in Excel/Google Sheets: dynamic formulas, structured inputs/outputs, versioning best practices, and error checking.
• Proven track record of supporting forecasting, budgeting, and variance analysis processes with high attention to detail.
• Ability to translate complex business dynamics into structured financial logic — especially in performance-based or media-revenue models.
• Comfortable working under tight timelines, dealing with ambiguity, and owning end-to-end model workflows with minimal oversight.
• Strong analytical mindset, business intuition, and fluency in finance fundamentals (revenue recognition, margin math, working capital, EBITDA).
• Excellent written documentation and verbal communication skills — must be able to explain model logic to non-finance stakeholders clearly.

Nice-to-Have Experience

• Exposure to mobile advertising, programmatic DSPs, gaming, or subscription-based business models.
• Familiarity with VBA/Macros/SQL or ability to work with raw datasets to support cohort-based forecasting and related modelling.
• Experience collaborating with cross-functional teams (sales, product, analytics) to capture forecast inputs and challenge assumptions.
• Knowledge of BI or dashboard tools (e.g., Power BI, Tableau, Looker) to support visualization of financial outputs.
• Prior experience contributing to board reporting, investor updates, or strategic modelling projects (e.g., scenario stress tests, cost optimization).
