Associate Data Analyst – Group Finance - India

 

Associate Data Analyst – Group Finance

Location: India

Sector: Group Finance / Treasury

Experience: 2–4 Years

### Role Purpose

The Associate Data Analyst will bridge the gap between complex financial data and executive decision-making. You will be responsible for architecting the data infrastructure required to monitor the Group’s debt profile, liquidity, and strict lender covenants across a diverse Pan-African portfolio. This role is critical in providing "early warning" signals to Group Treasury and ensuring 100% accuracy in lender reporting.

---

### Key Responsibilities

1. Debt Architecture & Covenant Control

• Build and manage a centralized Group Debt Database tracking facility limits, drawdowns, and collateral.

• Automate the calculation of complex financial covenants ($DSCR$, $Net Debt/EBITDA$, Interest Cover).

• Design "Headroom Analysis" reports to alert leadership of potential covenant breaches before they occur.

2. Group Liquidity & Funding Analytics

• Consolidate cash flow data from various subsidiaries to create a unified Group Liquidity Position.

• Develop sensitivity models to test how FX fluctuations and interest rate hikes impact funding costs.

• Visualize debt maturity ladders to assist Treasury in refinancing strategies.

3. Data Engineering & BI Development

• Develop ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) pipelines to aggregate data from disparate ERPs (SAP, Oracle) and manual BU reports.

• Create and maintain executive-level Power BI/Tableau dashboards for the Group CFO and Board of Directors.

• Establish data governance standards to ensure "one version of the truth" across all financial KPIs.

---

### Candidate Profile

Technical Requirements:

• Education: Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Data Science, Economics, or a quantitative field.

• SQL: Proficiency in writing complex queries to extract and manipulate financial data.

• Visualization: Advanced skills in Power BI (DAX/Power Query) or Tableau.

• Excel: Expert level (VBA, financial modeling, and pivot tables).

• Systems: Familiarity with ERPs (SAP/Oracle) or Treasury Management Systems (Kyriba/FIS) is a plus.

Soft Skills:

• The "Controls" Mindset: Obsessive attention to detail—recognizing that a decimal error in a lender report has legal consequences.

• Business Translation: Ability to take a vague finance request (e.g., "Check our FX exposure") and turn it into a precise data model.

• Adaptability: Comfortable working with "noisy" or incomplete data from emerging markets.

---

Why This Role?

• High Visibility: You will work directly with Corporate Finance and Development teams on transformative African projects.

• Strategic Impact: Your dashboards will be the primary tools used for bank negotiations and multi-million dollar refinancing.

• Career Path: Direct progression into Senior Treasury roles or Corporate Development (M&A).
