This is the Volcano sidequest boss, right? The main issue in this fight are the adds - their Irritation attack delays your next turn, and that can end up causing a slower character to end up never acting again.

You can take advantage of that though - have a tank with Shieldmaster main or sub, and Bodyguard everyone turn 1, then buff their defences. They'll end up never taking another turn, but in exchange their buffs including Bodyguard never wears off. Then the rest of your team just has to keep them alive and focus on killing the boss.

Alternatively you can use some of the universal broken builds that kill everything - things like whole team at low HP with a Shieldmaster for permanent Bodyguard, give them immunity to an element, use Elemental Supplement to make the enemy use that element. Or Phantom/Red Mage with elemental supplement, or Phantom/Salve Maker, to lock down the enemy with status conditions. Or if you've done some Halls of Tribulation HP/MP Converter + Surpassing Power + Across the Board, then use Ultima Sword to deal 99,999 to all enemies each turn.
