The Company & Role
We are seeking an experienced Financial Modeller to build a robust, driver-based Excel financial model for an established financial services business. This is a hands-on project for a modeller who can take a business that currently relies heavily on Excel and manually assembled financial information and develop a fit-for-purpose, integrated financial model to support forecasting, budgeting, scenario analysis, business planning and funding requirements.
The initial focus will be on building a model that provides clear visibility across the business over a 12-36 month forecast horizon, with the flexibility to test different growth and funding scenarios. You will work closely with senior stakeholders to understand the business drivers, translate them into a practical modelling structure, and build a model that can be used as an ongoing planning and decision-support tool.
Key Responsibilities
- Design and build a robust, integrated Excel-based financial model from the ground up, translating key business and operational drivers into financial outcomes.
- Develop 12-36 month forecasting and budgeting functionality to support ongoing financial planning and management reporting.
- Build detailed modelling of loan origination, portfolio growth, receivables, run-off and funding requirements across the business.
- Incorporate key operational drivers, including application volumes, approval rates, booking and activation rates, origination volumes and portfolio growth assumptions.
- Develop modelling for the wholesale financing portfolio, including stock volumes, financing requirements and relevant business drivers.
- Integrate P&L;, balance sheet, receivables and funding requirements into a coherent and dynamic financial model.
- Build scenario and sensitivity analysis that enables management to assess the financial impact of different growth, origination and portfolio assumptions.
