Senior Financial Analyst - JLL
Location: Cincinnati, OH (Onsite)
What this job involves:
As a Senior Financial Analyst supporting JLL's Procter & Gamble account, you'll serve as the financial backbone for a dynamic, client-focused team delivering facilities management excellence. This role positions you at the intersection of strategic financial planning and operational execution, where you'll partner with site leaders across the region to build budgets, drive cost optimization, and deliver insights that shape business decisions. You'll work directly with both JLL and P&G finance teams, becoming the go-to expert for budget analysis, forecasting accuracy, and financial integrity. This is an opportunity to make a tangible impact on a high-profile account while developing deep expertise in complex financial operations within a fast-paced, collaborative environment that values innovation and continuous improvement.
What your day-to-day will look like:
- Managing the complete budget lifecycle, from supporting site leaders in annual budget construction through monitoring actual spend execution against plan and identifying variances that require corrective action. You'll ensure budgets align with contractual service conditions and conduct regular financial reviews and audits.
- Developing and maintaining monthly, quarterly, and annual financial forecasts for the account, performing variance analysis to identify trends, risks, and opportunities. You'll consolidate regional site budgets and prepare comprehensive reports for site leaders, regional finance directors, and P&G Finance.
- Serving as the primary point of contact for financial transaction accuracy across both P&G's SAP system and JLL's JD Edwards platform. You'll manage the chart of accounts, ensure proper invoicing processes, and verify that year-end accruals are recorded according to P&G guidelines.
- Partnering with site leaders to identify cost reduction opportunities and drive savings initiatives that maximize account profitability. You'll develop detailed bridging documents analyzing site spend and funding from P&G, and confidently challenge P&G Finance on expenditure decisions when appropriate.
- Building strong working relationships with the client and maintaining fully integrated collaboration with account teams including Facilities Management, Strategic Portfolio Management, Technical Management, Project Delivery Services, and Sourcing. You'll become an on-the-ground expert for individual sites and share this knowledge with management.
- Identifying opportunities to streamline and automate financial processes, championing adoption of financial technology solutions that improve accuracy, speed, and data integrity across the account. You'll focus on continuous improvement and deliver results with exceptional quality and timeliness.
- Supporting financial analysis for optimization projects, ensuring key performance indicators are achieved (particularly those associated with finance), and complying with activity schedules agreed between JLL Finance and P&G's Global Business Services Finance team.
