Company
Stanton House are partnering with a private equity-backed renewable energy platform to appoint a senior FP&A professional into a newly created position within its London finance team. The business develops, acquires, and operates large-scale renewable energy assets and is entering a period of significant growth following the transition of its finance function back to the UK.
This is an opportunity to join a highly commercial, entrepreneurial environment where finance plays a central role in supporting growth, investment decisions, and operational performance. The organisation is looking for someone who enjoys working in a developing environment, building processes, improving reporting, and partnering closely with senior stakeholders across the business.
Role
Reporting directly to the CFO, this position will lead FP&A activities across a growing portfolio of renewable energy assets. The successful candidate will be responsible for establishing and developing forecasting, reporting, modelling, and performance management capabilities while acting as a key partner to both executive leadership and operational teams.
The role would suit an ambitious FP&A leader or a high-performing FP&A Manager ready to step into a broader position with significant visibility and responsibility. The successful individual will be expected to operate both strategically and at a detailed level, helping to build capability while producing meaningful analysis to support decision-making.
Responsibilities
- Build and establish group-wide forecasting, budgeting, and financial planning processes.
- Develop and maintain detailed three-statement financial models for individual entities and the consolidated group.
- Analyse financial performance, including budget versus actuals, forecasts, cash flow, and balance sheet performance.
- Deliver financial insight and reporting to executive management, board-level stakeholders, and functional leadership teams.
- Partner with development, construction, operations, treasury, and investment teams to support business performance and strategic decision-making.
- Produce meaningful analysis from large and often unstructured datasets, translating outputs into commercially relevant recommendations.
- Challenge assumptions within subsidiary forecasts and identify opportunities to improve financial performance and operational metrics.
- Support valuation activities, investment analysis, and financial modelling associated with renewable energy assets and strategic projects.
- Monitor debt covenants, liquidity, and key financial metrics across the portfolio.
- Contribute to finance transformation initiatives, reporting enhancements, and future systems development.
- Work closely with senior leadership and gain exposure to CFO-level decision-making and business strategy.
Requirements
- Qualified Accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent).
- Strong FP&A experience, including budgeting, forecasting, management reporting, variance analysis, and financial modelling.
- Renewable energy, infrastructure, power generation, or closely related sector experience.
- Advanced Microsoft Excel capability with experience building and reviewing complex financial models.
- Ability to analyse large datasets and translate findings into actionable business insights.
- Strong commercial awareness combined with a willingness to remain hands-on in a growing environment.
- Experience improving or building financial processes, reporting frameworks, and planning capabilities.
- Strong communication skills and the confidence to challenge, influence, and collaborate across multiple functions.
- Experience with project valuations, investment analysis, or infrastructure-style financial modelling.
- Exposure to M&A transactions, acquisition modelling, or investment appraisal.
- Experience leading or building a finance function, or a desire to step into a broader leadership role.
