Director of Financial Planning & Analysis

Our client in the energy industry is seeking a Director of Financial Planning & Analysis to serve as the strategic financial partner across a dynamic portfolio. This is a high‑visibility leadership role at the intersection of operations, investment strategy, and executive decision‑making.

If you thrive on turning complex data into decisive action — and are energized by influencing performance at scale — this role was built for you.

• Direct exposure to executive leadership and board‑level discussions
• Influence over capital strategy and portfolio value creation
• A seat at the table where operational performance meets investment discipline
• Opportunity to shape reporting, modeling, and analytical standards across a growing energy platform

As Director of FP&A, you will act as the financial architect for a diverse portfolio of energy assets. You’ll challenge assumptions, sharpen forecasts, and ensure capital is deployed with discipline and clarity. You won’t just report results — you’ll shape them.

• Evaluate and pressure‑test business plans, forecasts, and quarterly reporting for portfolio — strengthening assumptions, identifying blind spots, and elevating financial rigor.
• Track and interpret key operational and financial performance indicators, isolating the real drivers behind variances and translating them into actionable insights.
• Design and maintain sophisticated financial models, including scenario planning, discounted cash flow valuations, and IRR analysis to support investment and capital allocation decisions.
• Standardize and streamline reporting frameworks, creating consistency across portfolio and ensuring seamless information flow to the private equity sponsor.
• Craft executive‑ready presentations and board materials that clearly communicate performance, risks, and strategic opportunities.
• Lead and develop the FP&A function, mentoring team members while serving as a critical liaison between portfolio finance teams and internal stakeholders, including PE sponsor.

You are analytically sharp, commercially minded, and confident challenging senior operators when numbers don’t align with strategy. You’re comfortable moving from detailed modeling to boardroom storytelling — and back again.

• Bachelor’s degree or higher‑level degree in accounting, finance, or economics
• 7‑10 years of deep FP&A and financial modeling expertise in energy, infrastructure, or asset‑heavy industries
• Proven leadership and team development experience
• Strong understanding of valuation methodologies and IRR
• Executive presence and clear communication skills
