About W Mohd Faiz

I drive value creation for private equity firms and high-growth companies across FP&A, M&A and financial transformation.

My work focuses on improving forecast accuracy, strengthening EBITDA visibility and enabling faster, higher-confidence investment decisions. Operating at the intersection of finance, strategy and execution, I translate complex financial and operational data into clear, decision-ready insights that drive measurable outcomes.

Delivered across multi-million dollar transactions, I have identified 15–25% margin leakage and unlocked EBITDA uplift opportunities exceeding USD 10M, supporting investment committee decisions under time-critical conditions.

Across acquisitions, scale-ups and restructuring situations, I partner directly with investors and leadership teams to identify value drivers, build robust financial models and implement performance frameworks that strengthen accountability and capital allocation discipline.

Frequently engaged in high-stakes environments where financial visibility is limited and timelines are compressed, I focus on stabilising performance, restoring clarity and enabling decisive action with material capital at risk.

Selected experience:
• Financial due diligence and investment evaluation
• Transaction modelling, valuation and scenario analysis
• FP&A build-out, financial modelling and performance tracking
• Post-acquisition performance stabilisation and KPI implementation
• Financial restructuring and turnaround support
• Targeted forensic analysis in complex or disputed financial situations
• Fundraising support including IM, financial projections and investor materials
  • English
