Your new company
Hays is proud to be partnering with a high ‑ growth, international Fintech organisation with a complex group structure and a strong focus on high ‑ quality financial planning, analysis and commercial insight. The Group Finance function plays a central role in supporting decision ‑ making across the wider business, working closely with senior stakeholders and leadership teams to deliver robust forecasting and strategic analysis.
Your new role
As an FP&A Analyst, you will be a key member of the Group FP&A team, supporting the delivery of budgeting, forecasting, modelling and reporting across the entire group. Reporting directly to a senior FP&A leader, this role offers broad exposure to senior stakeholders and the opportunity to influence decision ‑ making through high ‑ quality analysis and insight.
Your responsibilities will include supporting the group forecasting process through regular update cycles, consolidating regional inputs into management and stakeholder reporting, and producing ad ‑ hoc analysis to inform business decisions. You will work closely with budget holders and senior management, providing commercial business partnering support, responding to forecast and budget queries, and highlighting risks and opportunities through variance analysis. The role will also involve maintaining complex Excel forecast models, managing data from financial systems, and supporting longer ‑ term planning, strategic projects and funding ‑ related analysis.
What you'll need to succeed
To be successful in this role, you will be a fully qualified accountant (CA, CIMA or ACCA) with strong experience in planning and forecasting within a fast ‑ paced environment. Advanced Excel modelling capability is essential, including the use of Power Query, XLOOKUP, GroupBy and PivotBy. You will bring strong analytical skills, with the ability to interpret complex data and turn it into meaningful commercial insight.
Excellent communication skills are key, as the role involves regular interaction with stakeholders at all levels of the business. You will be comfortable managing your own workload, adapting to changing priorities and using initiative to deliver high ‑ quality outcomes. Experience using planning and reporting tools is required, and exposure to tools such as Power BI, Qlik or Anaplan would be advantageous.
What you'll get in return
This is an excellent opportunity to join a high ‑ performing
Group FP&A team within a dynamic and evolving organisation. You will gain
exposure to senior leadership, complex group forecasting and strategic
projects, while developing your commercial and technical skillset in a
supportive and professional environment. The role offers the chance to make a
tangible impact on business performance while progressing your career within a
respected finance function.
