About the team

Mexico FP&A is the finance partner of the Mexico business. We sit between the product, credit, growth and marketing teams and the country leadership, and our job is to make sure every bet the business makes is sized, challenged and reflected in the P&L before it is made.

We are not a reporting team. We work hand in hand with Credit Card, Lending, Cuenta (deposits and transactional) and Growth stakeholders, as well as Treasury, Controllership, Public Policy, Second Line Risk and Investor Relations, to turn strategy into numbers and numbers into decisions.

How we work

• We are owners: we make things happen instead of waiting for them.

• We have a bias to output: fast, right-sized answers over months-long projects.

• We set the finance agenda, not only serve it.

• We embrace conflicting ideas and question the status quo, with data.

• We work hard, with integrity and putting the team first.

About the role

As a Mexico FP&A Senior Specialist, you sit at the intersection of Nu México’s financial execution, regulatory discipline, and forward planning. You serve as the operational anchor for Mexico’s consolidated figures, ensuring that key consolidated financial outputs reported to management, the Board of Directors, and regulators are reliable, structurally sound, and delivered on time. In this role, you lead the monthly close, consolidate financial statements and KPIs, and turn variance analysis into clear executive materials for local leadership, Holdings, Investor Relations, and regulatory authorities.

Beyond recurring cycles, you act as an analytical first responder for complex, ad-hoc analyses. This demands both advanced corporate finance expertise and close cross-functional coordination to clarify technical details, align business assumptions, and secure the agreements needed to deliver rigorous analysis. At this level, you bridge technical modeling with executive decision-making, ensuring leadership moves forward with numbers that are both rigorous and grounded.

What you will do

1. Deliver recurring financial operations

• Coordinate and execute Mexico’s monthly close, driving end-to-end planning and alignment across local and global finance teams.

• Consolidate financial statements and core KPIs, preparing executive management materials and partnering across business units to explain variances and deliver deep-dive analyses.

• Deliver specialized financial reporting for executive stakeholders, including the Board of Directors, Investor Relations (IR), and mandatory or ad-hoc regulatory requirements (e.g., CNBV).

2. Drive planning and forecasting cycles

• Consolidate Mexico’s budget and forecast figures, including financial statements, KPIs, assumptions, and business narrative, leveraging advanced corporate finance and financial modeling expertise.

• Partner with Business Units (BUs) and efficiency business partners to challenge, validate, and accurately reflect assumptions in financial plans.

• Build and align the budget narrative across cross-functional teams and executive stakeholders to ensure strategic consistency.

3. Lead structural projects and ad-hoc financial analysis

• Conduct high-impact, ad-hoc financial analyses on complex, non-recurring issues (such as capital requirements, structural business changes, or regulatory shifts) to support strategic decision-making.

• Manage initiatives to optimize and scale financial models, ensuring they reflect evolving business needs and maintain structural integrity.

• Contribute to model and infrastructure roadmaps, translating business requirements into technical enhancements and tooling improvements (e.g., Anaplan).

What we are looking for

Must have

• Bachelor's degree in Economics, Finance, Industrial Engineering, Actuarial Science or a related quantitative field.

• 3-4 years of experience in FP&A, business analytics, strategy or credit analytics, with a significant part in consumer credit, banking or fintech.

• Advanced financial modeling and forecasting skills.

• Advanced skills across Google Workspace and Microsoft 365 ecosystems.

• Knowledge of Mexican GAAP and IFRS accounting standards.

• Ability to explain complex financial information clearly to senior stakeholders.

• Cross-functional leadership and stakeholder alignment.

• Strong prioritization skills and the ability to manage recurring deadlines alongside urgent requests.

• Spanish and English fluency.

Nice to have

• Experience with Mexican financial regulation or regulated banking entities.

• Experience with planning tools such as Anaplan.

• Experience navigating, extracting, or validating financial data across Mexican financial regulatory portals and databases (e.g., CNBV, Banxico).

• Fluency with AI tools to speed up analysis and build lightweight dashboards and calculators.
