The business operates in a fast-paced environment, supporting a broad customer base and a complex supply chain operation. With continued growth and a strong focus on performance and efficiency, this is an exciting opportunity to join a business where finance plays a key role in supporting wider commercial decisions.
They're looking for a commercially minded FP&A Analyst to join the finance team, partnering closely with one of the organisation’s internal teams.
This is a varied role covering budgeting, forecasting, financial modelling, performance analysis and business partnering. You’ll use financial and operational data to understand performance, identify trends and provide insight that helps shape key business decisions.
Key responsibilities include:
- Supporting budgets, forecasts and longer-term financial planning
- Analysing performance against budget and forecast, identifying key variances and trends
- Building financial models and supporting scenario planning
- Providing commercial insight across revenue, costs, margins and profitability
- Working closely with an internal team as a key finance business partner
- Developing KPIs, dashboards and reporting to improve visibility of performance
- Working with large datasets to identify risks, opportunities and areas for improvement
- Presenting clear, actionable analysis to finance and non-finance stakeholders
- Challenging assumptions and helping stakeholders make better, data-led decisions
We’re looking for someone with experience in FP&A, commercial finance, management accounting or data analytics, with strong analytical skills and a genuine interest in understanding what drives business performance. You’ll need strong Excel and financial modelling skills, with experience using data and reporting tools.
Most importantly, you’ll be commercially curious, confident working with stakeholders and able to turn complex data into clear, practical insight.
