Finance Business Partner - Gloucester - Social value organisation - 55-65,000 + 18% pension

Hays Senior Finance are delighted to be supporting a local government organisation in Gloucester on the recruitment of a full-time and permanent Finance Business Partner to join the team.

Reporting directly to the Head of Finance, and with line management responsibilities for a small team, you will play a pivotal role in the running, functioning and growth of the Finance function. The ideal candidate will be proactive, driven and a problem solver. There are numerous exciting career progression opportunities within this position and the organisation for the right person.

Our client adopts a hybrid working model (3 days in the office, 2 days working from home), although you must be prepared to be 4 days office based for the initial 6 months.


Responsibilities of the Finance Business Partner will include but not be limited to:


  • Lead budget planning, monitoring, and reporting across business units.
  • Act as a primary finance contact for senior leadership within the business, providing strategic financial advice and support decision making through robust analysis and forecasting.
  • Support with procurement activities, contracts and supplier relationships, ensuring compliance with legislation and value for money across all commercial operations.
  • Lead and mentor finance and procurement staff, promote cross-functional working, and contribute to organisational development through training and support.
  • Ensure accurate and timely financial reporting, statutory returns, and audit support.


Your Profile:


  • Preferably, you will be a fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA), but we are open to part-qualified/studiers and candidates who are qualified by experience, as long as you have the willingness to become qualified.
  • Strong proven experience in managing operational budgets, interpreting complex financial data and delivering strategic financial support.
  • Excellent leadership skills, with the ability to lead and motivate teams.
  • Advanced Excel, and data presentation capabilities.


In return, the successful candidate can expect a salary of between £55-65k plus benefits including study support, a generous pension scheme (18%), 24 days holiday and more.
