Senior Financial Planning Analyst

Are you a strategic finance professional who loves stepping away from the spreadsheet to collaborate directly with operational decision-makers? Have you already built a reputation for translating complex financial forecasts into high-impact, visual business cases that drive executive decisions? Are you looking for a larger, multi-billion-dollar canvas where your scenario models and strategic insights will directly shape the future of a landmark national asset? If you are an established FP&A business partner who thrives on cross-functional collaboration and strategic planning, this is your next major career move. Our client is a multi-billion-dollar premier transportation infrastructure and commercial hub operator in Canada. They aren’t just managing a massive physical footprint; they are in the midst of a historic operational and technological transformation. Imagine being the strategic financial co-pilot for a "city within a city" that orchestrates billions in revenue, thousands of commercial partners, and millions of customers annually. Can you see yourself partnering directly with our Commercial Business Partnerships division; the team driving retail, real estate, terminal concessions, and parking revenue to turn raw operational data into major strategic investments? What You Will Do: In this role, you will bridge the gap between technical financial modeling and real-world business strategy. Strategic Business Partnering: Collaborate directly with senior business leaders to lead annual budgets, rolling forecasts, and long-term financial plans across complex commercial divisions. Scenario & Capital Modeling: Build and stress-test advanced financial models evaluating "Option A vs. Option B" for major commercial investments, lease changes, and multi-million-dollar procurement initiatives. Dashboard Innovation: Design, build, and maintain performance-tracking dashboards (using Power BI or Tableau) to translate massive operational data sets into clear, actionable executive insights. Financial Stewardship: Conduct benchmarking studies, feasibility analyses, and market assessments to drive EBITDA performance and identify "lost opportunity" or cost-saving revenue leaks. The Finance Liaison: Act as the trusted financial advisor and liaison to non-finance operational partners, ensuring commercial agreements align with corporate financial policies. Who You Are: The Educational Foundation: University degree in Business, Commerce, Accounting, Finance, Economics, Mathematics, Statistics, or a related discipline. The Professional Credential: A completed CPA or CFA designation (or active, advanced pursuit of either) is highly preferred and considered a major asset. The Experience Base: 3+ years of progressive corporate finance, FP&A, budgeting, or business planning experience in a complex, data-heavy environment. The Analytical Toolset: Advanced Excel mastery (financial modeling, scenario forecasting) combined with hands-on experience building and deploying BI dashboards (Power BI / Tableau). The Communication Power: Exceptional ability to present findings to executive-level stakeholders and build cross-functional relationships with non-finance partners. Industry Context (Asset): Experience in commercial real estate, retail, consumer packaged goods (CPG), hospitality, transportation, logistics, or similarly complex, multi-stakeholder industries. Security & Compliance: Must be eligible and able to obtain standard federal background security clearance (due to the highly regulated, critical nature of the operations environment). What’s In It For You? Our client prides itself on a culture that champions both the personal and professional prosperity of their people: True Career Progression: Work in a high-performing finance team with clear pathways to management and leadership. Unmatched Benefits & Retirement: Start from day one with medical coverage and a flexible retirement program featuring up to 8% employer RRSP matching.
