Job Title: Senior Financial Analyst – Financial Modeling & Feasibility

Location: UAE
Department: Finance / Strategy
Reports To: Finance Manager & CEO
Salary: AED 15,000 – 20,000 per month (based on expertise)

Position Overview

We are looking for a hands-on Financial Analyst with strong financial modeling and feasibility experience to support new business ventures, project funding, and investor decision-making.

This role is model-heavy, not accounting-focused. You will be expected to build robust, investor-ready financial models from limited or incomplete information, work closely with senior leadership, and support funding and valuation exercises.

⚠️ Important: This role is not suitable for candidates without practical financial modeling experience.

Key Responsibilities

Build advanced financial models for new ventures, feasibility studies, and project funding

Prepare long-term projections, scenario and sensitivity analyses

Translate limited or unclear information into logical financial assumptions

Develop valuation models (DCF, NPV, IRR, payback, profitability analysis)

Support investor and funding-related financial models and presentations

Analyse financial statements, cost structures, and market data

Prepare clear, investor-ready PowerPoint presentations explaining model outputs

Use AI tools to enhance research, assumption-building, and automation

Stress-test models and continuously improve modeling templates

Technical Requirements (Must-Have)

Expert-level Excel financial modeling skills

Strong understanding of forecasting, valuation, feasibility, and corporate finance

Experience building models from scratch, not just updating templates

Strong PowerPoint skills for investor presentations

Ability to build assumptions with limited data

Practical experience using AI tools for financial research or automation

Experience & Background

7–15 years of hands-on financial modeling experience

Experience preparing models for investors, banks, CEOs, or boards

Background in consulting, corporate finance, PE/VC, or strategy is a strong advantage

Proven experience working with incomplete or early-stage data

Education

Bachelor’s or Master’s degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or Commerce
Professional certifications (CFA, FMVA, CMA, ACCA) are preferred
