About Brian Faulkner

Experienced Senior Financial Analyst with a demonstrated history of working in the information technology and services industry. I'm skilled in the core fundamentals of Financial Planning, Business Analysis, Financial Analysis, Financial Reporting, and Financial Systems Implementation. I've been through multiple business divestitures and integrations, supporting both from a financial systems integration perspective and a Finance Business partnership. I provided support in the latest divestiture/split of FireEye coordinating all P&L-related analysis for SEC reporting, and being the finance business partner for the FireEye R&D, Customer Success, Professional Services, and Manufacturing Operations organizations. I have advanced Excel knowledge, along with many years of working in ERP systems, and BI applications. One of my key strengths as a trusted finance business partner lies in being able to dive into complex situations and create recommendations that are easy to understand and execute.
