Descripción del empleo

Senior Financial Planning Analyst-CO

The Senior FP&A Analyst will act as a strategic finance partner to operational and commercial leadership, translating financial data into actionable insight that accelerates growth, margin expansion, and enterprise alignment. This is not a back‑office reporting role; it is a forward‑looking, influence‑led position for a high performing analyst who wants to shape decisions, challenge assumptions, and directly impact business outcomes across a global services organization.

Key Accountabilities

Commercial Performance & Growth Enablement

• Partner with business leaders to drive profitable growth, focusing on revenue quality, cost leverage, and operating margin improvement
• Lead financial analysis that informs pricing strategy, investment decisions, capacity planning, and service‑line performance
• Identify performance risks and opportunities early, converting insight into clear, decision‑ready recommendations

Planning, Forecasting & Enterprise Alignment

• Own the annual budget, rolling forecast, and long‑range planning cycles, ensuring alignment to OneGP priorities
• Move the organization from backward‑looking variance reporting to predictive, driver‑based forecasting
• Build scalable financial models that support scenario planning, growth initiatives, and transformation programs

Insight, Reporting & Executive Storytelling

• Deliver concise, high‑impact financial narratives for senior leadership, connecting financial outcomes to operational drivers
• Lead variance analysis with a root‑cause and action‑oriented mindset, not just explanation
• Develop and enhance dashboards and reporting using Excel and Power BI to enable self‑serve insight

Financial Governance & Data Integrity

• Ensure accuracy and integrity across income statements, balance sheet reconciliations, and key control processes
• Partner with controllership on close cycles, audit support, and data governance, without being anchored in pure accounting activity

Stakeholder Influence & OneGP Ways of Working

• Operate as a trusted advisor across finance, operations, and leadership
• Influence without authority, challenging legacy thinking and embedding a OneGP, enterprise‑first mindset
• Contribute to continuous improvement of FP&A processes, tools, and standards globally

What Success Looks Like

• Leadership teams use your insight to make faster, better commercial decisions
• Forecast accuracy improves and surprises reduce
• Growth initiatives are supported by robust financial logic and scenario modelling
• Finance is seen as a value creator, not a reporting function

Candidate Profile

Experience & Capability

• Part or fully qualified accountant
• Degree qualified in Accounting, Finance, or a related discipline
• 5+ years’ experience in FP&A, commercial finance, or business partnering roles, ideally within services, consulting, or matrixed global environments
• Demonstrated track record of influencing outcomes through insight, not hierarchy

Technical Strength

• Advanced Excel capability (modelling, scenario analysis, automation mindset)
• Strong Power BI or equivalent data visualization experience
• ERP exposure required; Oracle Cloud ERP experience advantageous

Mindset & OneGP Behaviours

• Commercially sharp, intellectually curious, and outcomes‑focused
• Comfortable operating in ambiguity and fast‑changing environments
• Confident communicator with the ability to simplify complexity for senior stakeholders
• Self‑starter with the resilience and drive to operate at pace

Why Join GP Strategies
