Analyst-Financial Modelling and Forecasting

Unleash your energy within! Be a part of the EDC Team!

The position is responsible for performing financial analysis, corporate valuation, and projections that are needed for the Company’s plans and programs.  On each budgeting cycle, the position is also involved in the development of the consolidated and stand-alone budget financial statements and including the consolidated and stand-alone cash flow statements as well as the maintenance of processes, policies, procedures, and technology that supports the financial modeling function.   As such, this position serves as management’s primary instrument for financial structuring through the performance of various financial analyses.

Worst Consequence:  Without a good analyst/specialist, the Company will have erroneous information that will be detrimental to the Company’s ability to execute its growth projects, declare dividends to shareholders, and may even be in a potential event of default which will result in a serious loss of reputation from its shareholders.  The Company will then have difficulty raising financing and attracting new investments and partnerships.  Without a good structuring program, the Company may be unnecessarily exposed to higher costs in the longer term. 

The position is also one of the keys in the governance of preparing a reliable financial forecast for reporting to the CFO, President/COO, OPSCOM, major stockholders, and the Board.  This position requires strong technical skills as any misstatement or erroneous information gathered in the actual financial results or outlook may result in incorrect management decisions.
