Job description

Finance Business Partner

£60k - £65k | Leeds

Permanent | High Growth | UK & International Exposure | PE-backed Business

Imagine stepping into a role where your analysis, ideas, and influence genuinely shape the direction of the business.

As Finance Business Partner here, you won't just be crunching numbers - you'll be right at the heart of decision-making, working shoulder-to-shoulder with Sales and Marketing to drive growth. You'll be trusted with autonomy, encouraged to challenge, and valued for the expertise you bring.

This is a business that wants more than "finance as usual." They want sharper analytics, better use of Power BI, and commercial insights that move the needle. You'll have a Commercial FD who backs your ideas, gives you space to grow, and values the role of finance as a driver of change rather than just reporting on it.

Because the company is growing quickly, you'll gain exposure across both the UK and international markets, as well as insights into how a PE-backed business operates. That kind of experience makes you more marketable, opens doors in your career, and gives you the springboard to progress at pace - whether that's here or wherever your journey takes you next.

What's in it for you?

• A seat at the decision-making table - your insights directly influence sales strategy and growth.
• A Head of Finance who will mentor and support your development.
• Autonomy and trust - freedom to drive improvements in reporting, analytics, and tools.
• A high-growth, values-led environment where progression happens as fast as you want it to.
• Exposure to UK, international, and PE-backed business environments.
• The chance to be a bigger fish in a smaller pond - where you see everything and make a visible impact.

What you'll be doing:

• Partnering with Sales and Marketing to provide commercial insight and challenge.
• Preparing and presenting budgets, forecasts, and financial models to senior leadership.
• Shaping strategy through analysis of sales performance, marketing ROI, and market trends.
• Using tools like Power BI to improve reporting and unlock better decision-making.
• Leading continuous improvements across financial planning and business partnering.

What you'll bring:

• ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualified.
• Proven track record in finance business partnering roles, ideally commercial-facing.
• Strong financial modelling, FP&A and reporting skills. Power BI experience.
• Commercially curious - able to see beyond the numbers and tell the story.
• A confident communicator, able to build relationships across finance and non-finance teams.

If you're looking for a Finance Business Partner role where you can grow, be valued, and directly influence the success of a business - this is it.

• We're a purpose-driven search firm built on one belief: recruitment should leave people and communities better than we found them.
• Alongside expert hiring support, we offer free mentoring access, career guidance, and wellbeing support throughout your journey.
• We also reinvest 3% of our profits into mental health and social impact initiatives - including MHFA training, wellbeing workshops, and youth outreach.
