About Ronak Karsan

I’m a finance transformation professional specializing in end-to-end FP & A system implementations, with a strong focus on building scalable, driver-based planning models in Pigment.I have led full-cycle Pigment implementations, from discovery and process design through model architecture, build, UAT, and post-go-live enablement. My work centers on developing integrated financial models that provide real-time visibility across key business drivers, including ARR, churn, revenue, workforce planning, COGS, and OPEX, while delivering fully connected forecasted Balance Sheets, Income Statements, and Statement of Cash Flows.I focus on replacing fragmented, Excel-based processes with centralized, automated planning environments that enable dynamic scenario modeling and faster, more accurate decision-making.Beyond implementation, I drive process improvement and operational efficiency initiatives, standardizing workflows, strengthening data governance, and improving cross-functional alignment. I have hands-on experience building Alteryx automation workflows that reduce manual data manipulation, accelerate reporting cycles, and improve data reliability across systems.My strength lies in bridging finance, operations, and technology, translating complex business requirements into scalable, sustainable FP & A solutions that teams can actually own and use.I bring a combination of technical modeling expertise, financial acumen, and change management experience to help organizations modernize their finance function and unlock better insights.Core Focus Areas- End-to-End Pigment Implementations - Driver-Based Financial Modeling (ARR, Churn, Workforce, COGS, OPEX)- 3-Statement Forecasting (P&L, Balance Sheet, Cash Flow)- FP & A Transformation & Finance Modernization - Process Improvement & Change Management - Data Automation (Alteryx)- Business Intelligence (Power BI)Industries: SaaS | Telecommunications | Healthcare | Manufacturing | Hospitality | Oil & Gas
