The successful candidate will serve as a key thought partner to the APAC Regional President and report directly to the [VP of International Finance].

• Lead financial modeling and ROI analyses to support key investment decisions and commercial strategies in the region.
• Partner with global and local teams to develop long-term planning models aligned with our China growth objectives.
• Translate complex business questions into structured, data-driven analyses and present findings to senior executives.
• Evaluate market trends, consumer behavior, and competitive positioning to inform strategic financial planning.
• Create executive-ready materials for quarterly business reviews, board updates, and investment proposals related to the China business.
• Support cross-functional projects related to pricing, product profitability, cost optimization, and strategic planning.
• Help standardize and scale regional financial processes, ensuring integration with global tools and systems (e.g., Oracle).
• Maintain a deep understanding of China’s economic and regulatory environment to inform strategic finance decisions.

Qualifications:

• Bachelor’s degree in Finance, Economics, Accounting, Business, or related field; MBA or CFA is a plus.
• 7+ years of relevant experience in strategic finance, investment banking, consulting, or corporate development; strong preference for candidates with experience in fast-paced, high-growth consumer businesses or multinational companies operating in China.
• Proven track record of supporting executive decision-making through high-impact financial and strategic analysis.
• Advanced financial modeling skills and fluency with Excel and PowerPoint.
• Strong understanding of financial statements, corporate finance, and valuation methodologies.
• Experience working with Oracle or similar enterprise systems is a plus.
• Exceptional written and verbal communication skills in both Mandarin and English.
• Ability to navigate cross-cultural environments and influence stakeholders across regions and functions.
• Highly analytical, intellectually curious, and comfortable working in ambiguity.
• Preferred Attributes
• Entrepreneurial mindset with a desire to build and shape business processes from the ground up.
• Comfortable operating in a matrixed and dynamic environment.
