<h4>M&A & Deal Structuring:</h4>
<p>Support the financial and structural workstreams on M&A, JV, divestment, and partnership transactions, from origination support through to execution. Architect deal structures — equity splits, governance terms, earn-outs, put/call mechanics, capital contributions, and exit pathways — that balance value creation, risk allocation, and strategic control. Build and own integrated valuation models (DCF, SOTP, trading and transaction comps) and lead negotiations support including bid strategy, sensitivity ranges, and walk-away thresholds. Coordinate financial, tax, and operational due diligence streams, synthesizing findings — including synergy assessment and integration risks — into a single investment thesis and risk register for leadership. Draft Investment Committee papers, term sheets input, and post-signing integration or value creation plans as needed.</p>
<h4>New Markets & Growth Strategy:</h4>
<p>Actively contribute in structuring market entry analyses for new geographies, categories, and brand opportunities, combining top-down market sizing with bottom-up unit economics to test commercial viability. Develop entry-mode frameworks (organic build, JV, acquisition, distribution partnership, franchise) and recommend the optimal structure given strategic fit, capital intensity, speed-to-market, and risk profile. Partner with Business Development, Growth and Commercial teams to pressure-test business cases, refine assumptions, and ensure proposals meet Group hurdle rates and capital efficiency benchmarks.</p>
<h4>Portfolio Optimization & Capital Allocation:</h4>
<p>Own the analytical engine behind the Group's capital allocation framework, ranking opportunities across brands, formats, and geographies on a risk-adjusted return basis. 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>
