Group FP&A Manager: Overview of Role

We are seeking an ambitious individual to join our team as a Group FP&A Manager. As a relatively small Finance team of 14 people, the cultural fit is extremely important.

This role will be critical in assisting the management of all financial reporting and analysis workstreams across the business and will be responsible for providing support in the strategic decision-making of the company.

This role is a great opportunity to join an ambitious, private-equity-backed, high growth business and learn from an experienced management team. This is a highly commercial role with real breadth that will provide the candidate with opportunity for growth and development.

  • Provide analytical support to members of the senior management team to drive commercial decisions and board strategy.
Other:
  • Other ad hoc analysis with senior management across the business.

  • Work closely with our Tableau Developer. If required, we can provide training to get exposure to developing reports in our BI tool Tableau.
