Job Background

  • The Finance Business Support team is responsible for providing expert financial guidance, control and best practice to support key decisions at all levels to deliver corporate objectives.
  • The team consists of 7 Business Partners, supported by a team of assistants, and managed by the Head of Finance Business Support. The successful candidate will be expected to work closely with the Executive Directors, Associate Directors and Business Managers providing expert advice to ensure effective financial management and control.
  • This particular role will support an area of the business (in common with all Finance Business Partners) but also lead on some specific disciplines (VAT). A final portfolio will be agreed depending on the skills and experience of the successful candidate.

  • Collaborate with department heads to understand their financial needs and provide tailored financial advice and support to help them make informed decisions.
  • Lead on the Office’s quarterly VAT return and the triaging of VAT queries from around the business.
  • Build and maintain key relationships with internal and external stakeholders, manage senior managers’ and stakeholders’ expectations, and develop a deep understanding of the business’s commercial and operational drivers.
  • Control expenditure in line with budgets/approved expenditure by providing support and challenge to ensure excellent financial management.
  • Facilitate the production of budgets, plans and forecasts to ensure affordability and balanced risk.


Essential Qualifications, Skills & Abilities

  • Qualified accountant (e.g., ACA, ACCA, CIMA) with relevant post qualification experience — demonstrating you ‘live and breathe’ the Accountancy profession. For this particular role you will need evidence of tax (VAT) experience.
  • Highly effective verbal and written communication skills demonstrating your ability to influence and constructively challenge at a senior level — demonstrating ‘we’re better together’.
  • The ability to explain financial concepts to both Finance and non-Finance colleagues – you’ll be required to interact with colleagues with varying levels of financial awareness but also experts outside — demonstrating ‘we’re experts by nature’.
  • A willingness to challenge the status quo and explore ways to improve working practices – showing ‘we keep evolving.’
