Partner with business divisions and functions to understand and analyse performance, identifying risks and opportunities. Lead analysis of balance sheet and cashflow movements, working closely with other functions including Treasury to accurately forecast future periods and ensure performance variances are clearly understood and explained. Consolidate, extract, and summarise data from various sources (OneStream and other systems), working with several stakeholders and colleagues to assess quality, suggest updates, and articulate improved forecasting. Undertake regular quality checks to ensure adequacy, accuracy, and legitimacy of data, and manage actions. Stress test business assumptions, challenge and collaborate to create a clear outlook on future performance underpinned by robust and clear assumptions. Develop executive presentations, Board packs, and other internal and external reporting. Identify opportunities for continuous improvement in FP&A processes and reporting, including establishing an operating rhythm with regions, consolidating data, periodic reviews of key KPIs, and streamlining reporting across all finance cycles. Build financial models that support the forecasting process, applying best practice advanced Excel financial modelling to bring numbers to life. Collaborate with other team members, demonstrating a willingness to work flexibly and ensure the team delivers to a high standard, creating an atmosphere of high performance and inclusivity. Support the annual budget, forecasting, 5-year plan, bonus modelling, and any ad-hoc analysis to influence key business decisions. Profile Criteria: Fully-Qualified (ACA/ACCA/CIMA) with relevant experience from industry (rather than currently working in practice / Transaction Services), ideally in a Group Finance role but open to overall experience, if the person hasn’t worked in Group Finance (e.g., from M&A, Corporate Finance, Equity Research, Corporate Development). Must have a strong understanding of Cash Flow, Balance Sheet, and Treasury (all important). Rather than a large organisation or ‘big bank’ Finance Business Partner or FP&A professional (who might only look at commodities, Equities, FX business, for example), this individual must be able to understand revenue and cash flow movements that impact the whole business (rather than just for a single product or business unit). Must be a confident user of Excel with the ability to build forecasting and valuation models themselves. Excellent communication skills and commercial sense. Candidates who are immediately available or available on a short notice period would be ideal. #J-18808-Ljbffr
