Senior Partner, Strategic Finance United Kingdom in London

At Mews, we dream big. As a Hotel Tech unicorn valued at $2.5b, we're propelling new‐generation cloud technology within global hospitality. With our industry‐leading property management solution, we're enabling the world's most revolutionary hospitality brands to accelerate their digital transformation.

About the role:

This role sits within Strategic Finance and partners closely with senior business leaders to support investment planning, resource allocation, performance insight, and strategic decision‐making. It combines financial modelling, planning, and analysis to help leadership make better decisions on growth, cost, prioritisation, and long‐term value creation.

In this role, you have an outsized opportunity to shape Mews's direction, helping steer Mews's thinking on investing our money, our long‐term growth strategy and investment planning. You can expect to work on topics such as expansion into new countries or market segments, developing business cases for new products or partnerships, or customer strategy. At the same time, you will also work with senior business leaders on what their teams look like and how to improve performance.

You will work in an AI‐enabled FP&A environment, combining strong finance judgement with modern tools. We're looking for someone who brings genuine curiosity about what AI can do for finance — someone who will spot automation opportunities, raise the bar for what the team produces, and be energized by building the workflows and tools that make that possible.

Your mission, should you choose to accept it:

• Partner with senior business leaders and the Director of Strategic Finance to help set the agenda and support strategic and financial decision‐making.
• Build and maintain financial models, forecasts, and scenario analyses to assess business performance, investment choices and resource allocation.
• Prepare high‐quality analysis, business cases and leadership‐ready materials to inform prioritisation and executive discussions.
• Define and track KPIs that support visibility into performance, efficiency and value creation.
• Support annual planning, forecasting cycles and in‐year decision‐making across the business.
• Act as a finance business partner to budget owners, supporting spend management, investment decisions and prioritisation across the business.
• Evaluate cost and investment proposals, including financial returns, funding implications, and alignment with business priorities.
• Support approval processes for spend and investment decisions through clear analysis, challenge, and decision‐oriented recommendations.
• Support budget monitoring and in‐year cost control, helping leaders understand spend trends, risks, trade‐offs, and areas for intervention.
• Identify risks, opportunities, and trade‐offs across the business, using data and commercial judgement to challenge assumptions.
• Help shape and develop our AI‐enabled, high‐performing FP&A team.
• Improve FP&A processes, reporting, and planning tools to better support a scaling organisation.
• Use AI‐enabled workflows and connected finance tools to improve speed, quality, and scalability of analysis, modelling, reporting, and planning.
• Help shape a more modern FP&A way of working by embedding better tooling, automation, and decision‐support practices into day‐to‐day finance processes.

You'll be a great fit if you bring a few of the below with you:

• 4–6 years in FP&A or strategic finance, with strong modelling skills, commercial acumen, and the ability to build and challenge a business case.
• Strong knowledge of FP&A, financial modelling, forecasting, and business performance analysis.
• Commercial acumen and a clear understanding of how financial and operational drivers connect to business performance.
• Business partnering experience, including budget monitoring, cost management, and supporting investment decisions.
• Advanced Excel and PowerPoint; exposure to SQL, Looker, Tableau, or similar is beneficial.
• Able to assess and challenge business cases with clear financial return logic and funding analysis.
• MBA or equivalent postgraduate qualification is welcome but not required.
• AI fluency, with a drive to automate and a genuine appetite for building agents and workflows.
• Comfortable building and maintaining AI agents and multi‐step automated workflows.
• A strong drive to automate low‐value work, with a track record or clear appetite for doing so in a finance context.
• Some exposure to computer science, software development, or data engineering is a genuine plus, but not required.
• Familiarity with modern finance tooling; exposure to MCP‐enabled workflows or financial planning platforms is a plus.
• A clear and credible communicator who influences through insight and is comfortable building in ambiguity.

Who is Mews:

Mews has been transforming hospitality since 2012. What began in a single hotel in Prague now powers thousands of hotels around the world, as they pursue their mission to develop transformational solutions for brands and create remarkable experiences for guests.

Since the beginning, Mews embraced being different. Mews is not simply a property management system, but a connected hospitality cloud with products across the hotel ecosystem and more integrations than anyone else.

Powering over 5,000 customers across more than 85 countries, Mews Hospitality Cloud is designed to streamline operations for modern hoteliers, transform the guest experience and create more profitable businesses.

Ranked 24th in the FT 1000 list of the fastest‐growing European companies in 2021, Mews has been recognized as the Best PMS by industry peers at the HotelTechAwards in 2020 and 2024, consistently earning acclaim.

Mews also achieved finalist status in 2021 and 2022. What's more, we take immense pride in being listed among the Best Places to Work in Hotel Tech during those same years and again this year.

Mews was also listed among the World's Best Hotel PMS Provider 2023 and as the World's Best Independent Hotel PMS Provider 2022 and 2023 by the World Travel Tech Awards.

That's what we do, but what about who we are? Mews' culture is special and difficult to capture in words, which makes writing this tricky. You'll experience the freedom to be yourself and the ability to watch your ideas come to life. You'll have an open line of communication and an open invitation to after‐work drinks, be they virtual or in‐person.
