Key Responsibilities

  • Partner with senior leaders to provide financial insight, challenge assumptions, and identify opportunities for improvement.
  • Monitor financial performance and ensure robust reporting and variance analysis.
  • Support the development of business cases and financial models for new initiatives.
  • Contribute to the continuous improvement of financial systems, processes, and reporting tools.
  • Present complex financial information clearly to both financial and non-financial audiences.
  • Support the wider finance team and deputise for senior colleagues when required.
About You

  • Fully qualified accountant (CCAB or equivalent).
  • Strong experience in a finance business partnering or FP&A role within a complex organisation.
  • Excellent analytical skills and the ability to interpret and communicate financial data effectively.
  • Confident working in a fast-paced, evolving environment with multiple priorities.
  • Strong interpersonal and communication skills, with the ability to influence at all levels.
  • Experience working on capital projects or long-term investment programmes is desirable but not essential.
What’s on Offer

  • Competitive salary based on experience.
  • Flexible hybrid working model (3–4 days in the office).
  • Opportunity to shape a newly evolving finance function.
  • Supportive and collaborative team culture.
  • A generous benefits package includes pension and leave entitlements.
