Key Responsibilities:

Lead the team responsible for the production and distribution of management accounts across the Group

For this new and high-profile Head of Financial Analytics & Reporting role, based in the Northwest, you must be a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA), with significant post qualified experience within a large corporate environment.

Ideally you will have previous experience of running Business Intelligence / Data teams within a large Group structure, within the finance reporting stream. You will have operated at a senior level and possess the confidence and experience to interact and support at Exec level.

A track record of developing, improving and creating 'best-in-class' business data and financial reports are required, while experience of complex 'data heavy' sectors such as retail, property, telecomms or logistics would be advantageous.

The role requires a strong relationship builder with personal credibility, and high impact communication and presentation skills, who can influence at all levels.

Flexible/hybrid working will be considered, but a regular presence in the Northwest and flexibility to travel to other sites will be important.

A commitment to growth and development, personally and for colleagues will be crucial, with excellent progression opportunities
