Drive Finance Transformation. Shape Strategic Decision-Making. Make a Real Impact.

We’re looking for a Senior FP&A Manager – Transformation & Analytics to play a pivotal role in transforming how Finance supports the business. This is not a “steady state” role — it’s a hands‑on opportunity to design, build and deliver a modern, insight‑led FP&A function.

• Create scalable solutions that will shape Finance for years to come

You’ll sit at the heart of Finance transformation, with responsibility for:

• Leading transformation delivery
• Turn strategy into a clear, phased roadmap with tangible outcomes
• Drive delivery, governance, pacing and measurable success
• Modernising reporting & analytics
• Build a centralised, standardised reporting environment
• Reduce manual processes and move towards automated, insight‑led reporting (Power Query & Power BI)
• Enhancing decision support
• Develop scenario planning tools and financial models that drive better business decisions
• Translate operational drivers into clear financial outcomes
• Building forecasting capability
• Implement a driver‑based rolling forecast model across the P&L
• Improve budgeting and planning processes to focus on insight, not data gathering
• Leading systems & data enhancement
• Shape and implement the future planning and forecasting system
• Partner with IT and Data teams to ensure strong data structures and reporting integrity
• Embedding change & capability
• Upskill teams in automation, modelling, and analytical thinking
• Drive adoption of new tools and ways of working across the business

• A centralised, trusted reporting suite with significantly reduced manual effort
• Finance Business Partners freed up to focus on commercial insight and challenge
• Forward‑looking forecasting and scenario tools used by senior leaders to make faster, better decisions
• Strong data governance, controls and confidence in Finance outputs

• Qualified accountant (CIMA / ACCA / ACA) or equivalent experience
• Strong background in FP&A, forecasting, modelling and performance analysis
• Proven track record delivering finance transformation or reporting improvements
• Advanced Excel & Power Query skills; exposure to Power BI is highly desirable
• Experience building driver‑based models and planning processes
• Ability to engage, influence and challenge senior stakeholders

• A doer and a builder — you turn strategy into reality
• Commercially minded, curious and outcome-focused
• Pragmatic — you balance pace with quality
• A confident communicator who translates complexity into clarity

• Be part of a high‑impact transformation with senior visibility
• Shape the future operating model of FP&A
