In short, they need to hire more commercially-astute Finance Business Partners.A large turnover business (£BN), the Finance Business Partners sit alongside and work closely with the FP&A team and core finance, acting as the conduit for the flow of commercial insight and data from finance to non-finance stakeholders. FP&A and analysis skills are, of course, highly valued, as is experience of using BI and visualisation tools. But above all, it is the ability to interact with others that counts for most. Your emotional intelligence or EQ. Your gravitas, self awareness, ability to read the room, gauge the temperature, know what words are needed and when to use them (and when to not). Knowing when to push and when to roll over. When to plant the seed and walk away, or when to chop the tree down. EQ is hard to measure and even harder to convey on a CV. But EQ sits are the heart of all good and trusting relationships and to operate successfully as a business partner you have to be able to build relationships with a wide array of internal and external stakeholders. The ability to influence and drive and deliver change is essential.Working closely with the Exec team and SLT you will be influencing operational and commercial decisions across the business.As the Finance Business Partner your role with cover:Partner with key stakeholders to provide financial insights and support decision-making processesDrive the financial planning and forecasting processesAnalyze financial performance and identify areas for improvementDevelop and maintain strong relationships with business leaders to influence and drive business performanceLead and support strategic initiatives to drive growth and profitabilityCollaborating with operational teams to understand business performanceProviding financial insights to support strategic decision makingDeveloping and maintaining financial models to support business planningEngaging with senior stakeholders to drive business performanceThe ideal candidate will possess:Qualified Accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA) with significant post-qualification experienceProven experience as a Finance Business Partner or similar roleStrong commercial acumen and ability to influence at a senior levelExcellent analytical and problem-solving skillsExceptional communication and interpersonal abilitiesAdvanced Excel, Oracle (or other large ERP experience), TM1 (nice to have)If this sounds like the type of organisation that excites you, if you are career-orientated, entrepreneurially-minded, and driven to delivery better results then please get in touch.Can't find the job you're looking for?
