FP&A Analyst

A leading organisation in Petaling Jaya is seeking a Financial Planning and Analysis Analyst who thrives on providing meaningful insights to support strategic business decisions. This is an exceptional opportunity for you to join a supportive team environment where your analytical skills will be valued, and your input will directly influence the company’s financial direction. The role offers exposure to a wide range of stakeholders, giving you the chance to build strong inter-personal relationships across departments while developing your expertise in budgeting, forecasting, and performance analysis. With flexible working opportunities and ongoing training, this position is ideal for someone looking to grow their career in a nurturing and inclusive workplace.

What you'll do:

As a Financial Planning and Analysis Analyst based in Petaling Jaya, you will play a pivotal role in supporting the organisation’s financial health by delivering high-quality forecasts, budgets, and performance analyses. Your day-to-day responsibilities will involve partnering with diverse teams to gather data, interpret complex information into actionable insights, and present findings that drive informed business decisions. You will be instrumental in shaping both short-term actions and long-term strategies through your involvement in scenario planning and management reporting. By maintaining robust financial models and continuously improving reporting tools, you will ensure that all stakeholders have access to reliable information when they need it most. Your ability to communicate effectively with non-finance colleagues will foster greater understanding across departments, making you a trusted advisor within the organisation. Success in this role comes from your attention to detail, commitment to accuracy, willingness to collaborate with others, and enthusiasm for contributing positively to team objectives.

• Prepare comprehensive monthly, quarterly, and annual financial forecasts and budgets by collaborating with multiple stakeholders across the business.
• Analyse financial performance against established budgets, forecasts, and prior year results to identify trends, risks, and opportunities for improvement.
• Deliver clear management reporting including detailed variance analysis, key performance indicators (KPIs), and insightful commentary on business outcomes.
• Support long-range financial planning activities as well as scenario analysis to help shape future strategies for the organisation.
• Partner with business units to understand the underlying drivers of revenue, cost structures, and profit margins, ensuring alignment with organisational goals.
• Assist in preparing board-level and management presentations by compiling accurate data and crafting compelling narratives around financial results.
• Enhance and maintain robust financial models, templates, and reporting tools that underpin effective decision-making processes.
• Identify emerging trends, potential risks, and new opportunities through thorough data analysis to inform strategic recommendations.
• Provide ad-hoc financial analysis and participate in special projects as required by senior management or cross-functional teams.

What you bring:

To excel as a Financial Planning and Analysis Analyst in this organisation, you will bring hands-on experience from previous roles involving FP&A or management reporting where you have honed your technical abilities alongside your interpersonal skills. Your background equips you with the confidence needed to handle complex modelling tasks while remaining sensitive to the needs of different stakeholders. You are comfortable navigating large volumes of data—translating numbers into stories that resonate beyond spreadsheets—and you take pride in producing work that is both accurate and insightful. Your communication style is open yet considerate; you know how to adapt your message depending on your audience so everyone feels included in the conversation. Experience with ERP systems or BI tools would further enhance your effectiveness but above all else it is your collaborative spirit—your willingness to share ideas openly—that sets you apart. You thrive when working together towards shared objectives because you understand that great results come from collective effort rather than individual achievement.

• Hold a Bachelor’s degree in Accounting, Finance, Economics or a related discipline which provides a solid foundation for understanding complex financial concepts.
• Demonstrate 2–5 years of experience in Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A), management reporting or similar roles where you have developed strong analytical capabilities.
• Possess advanced Excel skills along with proven experience building robust financial models that support accurate forecasting and budgeting processes.
• Showcase a good understanding of budgeting techniques, forecasting methodologies, variance analysis procedures, and how these contribute to effective business management.
• Display an analytical mindset with meticulous attention to detail when handling large datasets or interpreting nuanced trends within financial information.
• Communicate clearly with both finance professionals and non-finance stakeholders alike so that your insights are easily understood across the organisation.
• Experience working with ERP systems or Business Intelligence (BI) tools is considered advantageous but not essential for success in this position.
• Exhibit a proactive approach towards problem-solving while remaining dependable under pressure during periods of tight deadlines or shifting priorities.
• Bring commercial awareness coupled with sound judgement when evaluating business scenarios or recommending courses of action.
• Embrace teamwork by actively participating in group discussions, sharing knowledge generously with colleagues, and supporting collective goals.
