In 2019, GFG became a publicly listed company on the Frankfurt Stock Exchange. It is proud to combine the best of the governance and transparency of a public company with the entrepreneurial and growth spirit of an exciting digital business operating in some of the world's most dynamic markets.

The Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A) team is a core part of the Group Finance team, based in London. We focus on articulating and analysing the Group's business performance and future forecasts to the GFG Management and Supervisory Boards. We work closely with the FP&A teams based in Latin America, South East Asia and Australia, alongside the wider Group Finance, Tax and Treasury functions in London, Luxembourg and Germany.

This role is one of two FP&A Finance Manager positions, one focusing on Reporting and the other on Budgeting & Planning, with both reporting to the Head of Group FP&A. This role is the Reporting focused FP&A Manager role and you will be working closely with the regional FP&A Teams, Group Reporting Team, Group CFO and Management Board.

Both the FP&A Finance Managers will have a specific lead area of responsibility, however, they are expected to support one another in peak times or when business needs dictate.

• Ownership of process / insight improvement projects
• Ad-hoc modelling and scenario analysis
• Develop and mentor the FP&A Analyst, helping to enhance capability within the team.

Specific Reporting and Insight responsibilities include:

• Responsible for the monthly Group Flash process
• Manage the timely and accurate preparation of the monthly Group performance reporting for the Group Management Board
• Responsible for the quarterly Supervisory Board Group performance reporting
• Provide distilled key performance insights to Group IR, assist in drafting release presentations and scripts, prepare Management briefing packs for investor meetings and ensure accuracy and consistency across all external release financial materials.
• Develop the reporting to ensure the reporting and forecasts provide true insight into performance against these drivers.
• Drive continuous process improvement in our reporting cycle, both locally at Group and at a regional level
• Improve and develop monthly business model reporting, including Marketplace and Platform Services
• Develop and enhance customer cohort analysis, identifying emerging customer behaviours and trends, analysing retention and repeat purchase behaviour
• Take the Finance lead in supporting the Business Intelligence team

To be successful in this role, you will be able to demonstrate:

• Qualified accountant with a progressive record of success within a fast moving, forward thinking listed company
• A low-ego intellect who can quickly get to the heart of an issue and is comfortable communicating it clearly to peers and to top management
• Highly Analytical, able to draw conclusions from large data volumes at pace
