Milton Keynes, Milton Keynes, United Kingdom CityFibre Full time
**_
This is a hybrid role, with at least two days per week working from our London office.

_**Our goal at CityFibre is to unlock the digital potential of Britain by creating a broadband network that works seamlessly for everyone, every day.

Powerful, gigabit-speed connections that enable people across entire communities to enjoy life in full flow.

To do this, we make sure that our people's voices are heard, their ideas are welcomed, and everyone is given the opportunity to make a real impact.


We're a Times Top 50 Employer for Women; are endorsed by WORK180; have pledged our commitment to the Armed Forces Covenant; and are a Disability Confident Employer.

Working together with our Employee Networks, we're committed to changing the industry for everyone.

What you can expect from us
Everyone at CityFibre has an important part to play, and we reflect that in our benefits.

With
a competitive salary depending on experience, when you join us, you'll also enjoy 25 days' holiday, a day off on your birthday, a day off to support a charity or organisation of your choice, a performance-related bonus scheme, and private healthcare.


How you'll change it up


We're at an exciting point in our journey where our focus is no longer geared solely towards building our broadband network, but also how we can maximise the number of customers we have connected.

We achieved revenue of over £100m in 2023, and as our Finance Business Partner, you'll be responsible for managing over half of that total, driving double digit % growth each year, optimising our cost base and evaluating opportunities to maximise profitability, helping us build a legacy that will last for years to come.

Day to day, this is some of what you can expect to be doing:

  • Business partnering with Senior Management Team / Executive Team members across different areas to help evaluate and articulate trading performance, adding impact and value at the highest level
  • Carrying out analysis and insight to understand how our revenues are generated and how we can grow penetration across our network which will help us to inform future decision making
  • Leading on the overall budget and forecasting process, aligning the commercial team and wider organisation, and identifying risks and opportunities across the business

What you'll bring to the role


You'll be a fully qualified accountant (ACA/CIMA/ACCA) who has strong business partnering skills, the ability to confidently influence and engage with complex senior stakeholder groups, and the drive to create long-lasting positive impact.


You'll also bring the following with you:

  • Commercial finance experience (specifically trading/retail/revenue related) to drive sales and revenue, find ways to optimise costs and provide insight on sales numbers and analysis
  • Ability to think about industry trends and the competitor landscape
  • Ability and drive to operate at pace in an agile environment and work to tight deadlines
  • Experience in Excel and Anaplan, with strong financial modelling skills
We're looking for people who don't settle for 'good enough' and push things forward. If you've just found yourself thinking, 'I'd love to do this', we want to hear from you. Let's change it up.

Diversity, Inclusion and Belonging


Our people have a wide range of experiences and perspectives - and it's this diversity of thought that makes us who we are.

We encourage change, have a challenger mindset, foster innovation and nurture a welcoming, inclusive and supportive community.

In this environment we allow you to bring your best-self to work every day, helping you to achieve your goals, grow your career and reach your full potential.

CityFibre is working hard to change up the telecoms industry.

This means we're committed to providing equal opportunities to people from all backgrounds and commitments, including your carer and family status, ethnicity, sexual orientation, religion, age, disability, gender and gender identity.

We're also offering training programmes and placement opportunities to support the skilled, career changers, service-leavers, and returning workers to become part of our teams.
