Alex Vance
Senior Financial Analyst | FP&A, Financial Modeling & Strategic Planning
Solvendra Life Sciences AG
Dear Hiring Team,
I am writing to express my strong interest in the Financial Analyst position at Solvendra Life Sciences AG. Having developed my professional practice around corporate financial planning and analysis, capital allocation, and performance tracking within multinational corporate settings in Switzerland, I am eager to bring structured forecasting methodologies and analytical rigor to your finance division.
In my role as Senior Financial Analyst at Helvetic Biosolutions AG, I lead global operational expenditure and capital expenditure planning across four production sites, overseeing an annual budget of CHF 280 million. By developing rolling monthly cash flow and revenue forecasts, I successfully reduced quarterly forecast variance from 6.5% to 1.8% over three fiscal years. This work has deepened my capability to navigate complex divisional cost structures, evaluate operational dependencies, and deliver reliable decision support to senior stakeholders.
In addition to baseline budgeting, I directed the implementation of an automated financial planning model in SAP Analytics Cloud, cutting multi-entity consolidation turnaround from nine days to four days. I also partner regularly with executive leadership to evaluate proposed commercial licensing agreements and manufacturing expansion projects through detailed discounted cash flow modeling, applying scenario and sensitivity analysis to test strategic investment options.
Solvendra Life Sciences AG's commitment to sound investment planning and operational discipline matches my background in corporate FP&A. I look forward to the opportunity to discuss how my experience in variance analysis, capital planning, and automated reporting architectures can support your team's ongoing objectives. Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Alex Vance
