Head of Business Control and Performance
Lead Asianet's business performance and analytics capability, providing management with a clear, timely, and independent view of how the business is performing at cluster, asset, partner, and portfolio levels. This role will connect commercial, operational, and financial data to identify the underlying drivers of performance, anticipate emerging risks, and uncover opportunities to improve asset utilization, customer outcomes, and financial returns. A central responsibility is to convert analysis into practical business decisions: engaging relevant leaders, constructively challenging existing approaches, agreeing on corrective actions, and tracking implementation and measurable results.
Key Responsibilities
Establish Performance Visibility: Develop an integrated performance framework that enables management to trace portfolio results to individual clusters, assets, partners, and tenants. Connect network performance, asset capacity, customer activity, revenue, operating costs, and investment data into a coherent view of business performance.
Diagnose Performance Drivers: Investigate variations in cluster performance and analyze drivers of utilization, subscriber growth, churn, revenue, margins, and cash generation. Identify underutilized or deteriorating assets, recurring service issues, inefficient expenditure, and opportunities for additional tenancy or demand capture.
Drive Cross-Functional Decisions: Lead performance discussions with functional heads and relevant cluster, regional, and partner-facing teams. Translate recommendations into agreed initiatives with accountable owners, milestones, resource requirements, and measurable outcomes.
Build an Early Warning Capability: Develop indicators and thresholds that identify emerging operational, commercial, and financial risks before they materially affect performance.
Support Planning & Resource Allocation: Provide cluster-level insights for the annual operating plan, forecasts, and management reviews. Support decisions on network remediation, asset rehabilitation, capacity expansion, and commercial activation.
Build the Team & Data Discipline: Lead the transition of relevant FP&A capabilities into Business Performance & Analytics to develop a lean, commercially effective team. Establish repeatable analytical methods and automate recurring reporting in partnership with Technology and data owners.
