  • Advanced expert skills in Excel, with proven ability in developing budget models and detailed analysis from scratch.
  • Experienced in leading and developing teams of analysts, with a focus on strategic vision and business acumen.
  • Proficiency in leveraging data analytics to drive strategic decisions and optimize business performance.

  • Thrive in a dynamic, fast-paced, collaborative retail environment.
  • Strong financial and business acumen with the ability to identify and mitigate potential risks.
  • Ability to communicate effectively to a diverse audience – verbal and written - throughout all levels of the organization with a high degree of comfort presenting and responding to senior level executives.
