Job description

I'm partnering exclusively with a successful, PE backed organisation in Cambridge where an exciting new leadership opportunity has arisen.

Reporting directly to the Head of FP&A, you will lead a small, high-performing team of Finance Analysts focused on driving commercial insight and business partnering across multiple business units.

The role demands a professional, articulate, confident finance professional with flair, strong commercial awareness, and excellent presentation skills who can challenge, and be challenged, constructively and add real value to business decisions.

Key Responsibilities:

• Lead the annual budget and reforecasting for specific business units.
• Act as a proactive business partner, working with stakeholders across the organisation.
• Manage, mentor and develop a team of Finance Analysts.
• Drive continuous improvement in financial reporting and planning processes through optimisation and standardisation.
• Own cashflow tracking and capital spend reporting relevant to business units.
• Prepare and deliver high-impact presentations to senior leadership and the Board.

What We're Looking For:

• Qualified Accountant (CIMA/ACCA/ACA preferred). PQ and QBE candidates considered if demonstrating strong commercial and managerial experience and the right personality attributes.
• Proven experience in a commercial FP&A or business partnering role within a fast-paced, sales-driven environment.
• Demonstrable people management experience, able to lead and inspire a small team.
• Exceptional attention to detail and strong analytical mindset.
• Confidence and maturity to challenge senior leaders constructively.
• Advanced Excel skills and proficiency in PowerPoint and Power BI.
• Outstanding communication and presentation skills, comfortable engaging with executive-level audiences.

What's in it for you?

• You'll be joining a slick, high performing and fast paced finance team with a supportive and dynamic leadership team.
• Hybrid working model (2 days onsite, 3 days from home).
• Exceptional benefits package including Private Medical Insurance, Life Assurance, Perkbox discounts, salary sacrifice schemes (car leasing, cycle to work, tech), and more.
• Opportunity to make a significant impact on the business's financial strategy and growth.

• Salary up to £58,000 + benefits
• No routine accounting or month-end tasks - this is a pure FP&A, commercial business partnering role.
