Lead portfolio performance reviews covering ROIC, economic profit, growth trajectories, and capital intensity, surfacing reallocation opportunities and underperformance for ExCom attention. Drive WACC and cost of capital analysis at Group and business-unit level, refining benchmarks used across investment appraisal and business case validation. Support capital structure work including leverage targets, funding mix, and balance sheet optimization in coordination with Group Treasury.</p> <h4>Strategic Planning & Investment Appraisal:</h4> <p>Embed CFD's perspective into the 3-Year Strategic Plan and annual budget cycles, translating strategic ambitions into capital plans, cash flow trajectories, and value creation roadmaps. Lead the review and challenge of business unit investment submissions — new stores, brand launches, capex programs, transformation initiatives — ensuring analytical integrity and consistency with Group frameworks. Run scenario and stress-testing exercises across the portfolio to quantify exposure to macro, FX, and operational sensitivities, and recommend mitigation actions.</p> <h4>Stakeholder Partnership and Advisory:</h4> <p>Operate as a connector across Group Finance, Strategy, Commercial, Tax, Legal, and the business units, building the trust and partnership needed to move complex workstreams forward. Contribute to the continuous improvement of CFD's methodologies, templates, and governance standards.</p> <h4>Leadership & Capability Building:</h4> <p>Review models, valuations, and their underlying assumptions, scenarios, and sensitivities, coaching the team on modeling technique and analytical discipline and building capability over time. Ensure analytical outputs meet corporate finance and governance standards, and that investment assumptions and outcomes are accurately documented before materials reach leadership.</p> <h4>What you will need to succeed</h4> <ul> <li>You hold a Bachelor's degree in Finance, Economics, or Accounting; Master's, MBA, CFA, or ACA/CA strongly preferred.</li> <li>You possess 5–8 years of experience in Corporate Development, Investment Banking / M&A, Transaction Services, or top-tier Strategy Consulting, ideally with exposure to consumer, retail, or luxury sectors and emerging markets.</li> <li>You have a demonstrated track record of leading transactions or strategic projects end-to-end, including deal structuring, valuation, and executive-level communication.</li> <li>You have a deep fluency in valuation methodologies, deal mechanics, capital structure, and value creation frameworks.</li> <li>Advanced Excel and PowerPoint; working knowledge of SAP, Power BI, or Looker are an advantage.</li> </ul> <h4>What we can offer you</h4> <p>With us, you will turn your aspirations into reality.
