Role Summary

We are seeking a Senior FP&A Analyst to be a key partner to leadership in driving financial planning, forecasting, and strategic decision-making. You will own the budgeting cycle, build robust financial models for a fast-growing, project-driven business, and translate complex data into insights that shape how we invest, price, and scale. As a technology company built on AI and automation, we expect our finance team to work the same way — using AI tools to move faster, dig deeper, and deliver sharper insights.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead the annual budgeting and quarterly reforecasting processes end-to-end, partnering with business unit and project leads across all sectors
• Build and maintain financial models for revenue forecasting, project profitability, cash flow, and long-range planning
• Prepare monthly management reporting packs: variance analysis (budget versus actual), dashboards of key performance indicators (KPIs), and executive commentary for the CFO and leadership team
• Leverage AI tools for analysis, forecasting, reporting automation, and scenario modeling, and champion their adoption across the finance function
• Perform project-level cost analysis and margin tracking across a portfolio of major industrial and technology projects
• Support business development with pricing analysis, bid financial modeling, and scenario and sensitivity analysis for new contracts and strategic alliances
• Drive working capital analysis, including receivables, project billing milestones, and cash forecasting
• Evaluate capital expenditure requests and investment cases, including return on investment (ROI) and payback analysis
• Partner with accounting to ensure alignment between actuals, forecasts, and reporting; support month-end close review
• Continuously improve FP&A processes, automation, and tooling — consistent with our culture of innovation and agility
• Mentor junior finance team members and champion best practices in financial analysis

Qualifications & Experience

• Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, or a related field; Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA), Certified Management Accountant (CMA), Saudi Organization for Chartered and Professional Accountants (SOCPA) certification, or Master of Business Administration (MBA) preferred
• More than 5 years of progressive FP&A or corporate finance experience, ideally in engineering, procurement, and construction (EPC); contracting; energy services; industrial technology; or other project-based businesses
• Strong familiarity with the Saudi market is required — including local business practices, the regulatory and tax environment (Zakat, Tax and Customs Authority requirements), and the Vision 2030 economic landscape
• AI-savvy is a must — demonstrated, hands-on use of AI tools (such as large language models, AI-assisted analytics, and automation platforms) in day-to-day finance work, with genuine curiosity to keep learning as the technology evolves
• Advanced Microsoft Excel and financial modeling skills; experience with enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems (SAP, Oracle, or similar) and business intelligence (BI) tools (Power BI, Tableau)
• Strong understanding of project accounting, percentage-of-completion revenue recognition, and working capital dynamics
• Proven ability to present financial insights clearly to senior, non-finance stakeholders
• Fluency in English required; Arabic is a strong advantage
• Experience across the wider Gulf Cooperation Council (GCC) market is a plus
