We are recruiting on behalf of a well-established, values-led hospice charity that plays a vital role in supporting people and families within its community. An opportunity has arisen for a proactive and relationship focused Finance Business Partner to join a collaborative finance team and contribute to the organisation's long-term strategic ambitions.

• Providing meaningful financial analysis, insight and risk assessment
• Partnering with stakeholders to improve financial understanding and performance
• Supporting the development of robust, evidence-based business cases
• Constructively challenging and advising non-finance colleagues where appropriate
• This role requires strong communication skills and the ability to translate complex financial information into clear, actionable insight.

• Strong practical experience using Microsoft Excel and other MS applications
• A solid understanding of financial processes and coding structures
• Confidence presenting financial information to a range of stakeholders
