Job description

Finance Business Partner – PE-Backed Growth Business

London | 4 Days in Office | £70,000 - £80,000 + Benefits

Join a High-Growth, Commercial, Private Equity-Backed Business

This is a genuinely exciting finance business partnering role in a fast-scaling, PE-backed organisation.

Sub £100m turnover, ambitious growth plans, and a real opportunity to influence performance, shape strategy, and help build a best-in-class commercial finance function.

You will work directly with an exceptional Director of FP&A and sit at the heart of leadership decision‑making.

This is not a back‑office reporting role. This is proper commercial impact.

Why This Role Stands Out

• Work directly with a high‑calibre Director of FP&A and senior leadership
• Real ownership across forecasting, performance, margin and growth
• PE‑backed environment with pace, ambition and a clear value‑creation plan
• Broad exposure across commercial teams, operations and strategic initiatives
• A chance to help build the finance engine as the business scales

What You’ll Be Doing

Commercial Finance & Business Partnering

• Act as a trusted partner to senior stakeholders across the business
• Deliver insight that drives decision‑making, not just reporting
• Identify opportunities, risks, and performance levers early

Forecasting, Planning & Performance

• Lead budgeting, forecasting and long‑range planning
• Challenge assumptions and keep the business honest on delivery
• Build models and commercial cases to support key initiatives

Revenue, Margin & Profitability Focus

• Own revenue and gross margin reporting with strong controls
• Partner with operational teams to protect profitability
• Track KPIs and performance drivers across the business

Reporting, Dashboards & Process Improvement

• Produce senior‑ready insight, board‑level reporting and dashboards
• Improve systems, processes and scalability as the business grows
• Support continuous improvement across finance and operations

Who We’re Looking For

• Strong commercial finance / business partnering background
• Experience in a fast‑paced, growth‑focused environment (PE‑backed ideal)
• Confident engaging senior stakeholders and influencing decisions
• Advanced Excel skills, Power BI / Adaptive experience a bonus
• Proactive, sharp, and motivated by impact

Package & Flexibility

• Hybrid working, 3 days in the London office
• High‑growth environment with genuine progression opportunity
• Commercial exposure and career runway towards Finance Director level
