About Sachin K

Some people see numbers — I see stories.Stories about how a business grows, where it’s leaking value, and what levers can shape its future.I started my career at Ernst & Young, diving deep into the world of finance and tax. Over the past 4 years, I’ve learned how precision, compliance, and analytical thinking come together to form the backbone of any strong organization. But what truly fascinated me wasn’t just reporting results — it was understanding them. Why did we miss that forecast? What patterns hide in the data? How can finance guide smarter decisions?That curiosity is what led me to Financial Planning & Analysis (FP & A) — the space where numbers meet strategy.I love building financial models that tell a story, designing forecasts that anticipate what’s next, and translating complex data into insights leaders can act on. Whether it’s spotting trends in performance, aligning budgets to business goals, or supporting decision-making through analysis, I bring both structure and strategic curiosity to every project.What I bring to the table:A strong analytical base from EY and experience in financial reporting & analysisProficiency in forecasting, variance analysis, and data-driven insightsAdvanced Excel and visualization expertise (Power BI, dashboards, scenario modeling)The mindset of a problem-solver — detail-oriented yet focused on the bigger pictureI’m now looking to join a forward-thinking FP & A team where I can contribute to strategic finance, business partnering, and growth-oriented decision-making.
