Job description

Interim FP&A Specialist (Anaplan) - Inside IR35

We're supporting a listed financial services group on the appointment of an Interim FP&A Specialist to join their Group Finance function on an initial 6-month contract.

This business has invested in Anaplan but hasn't yet unlocked its full potential, and that's where you come in. They're looking for someone who can go beyond BAU reporting and actively develop and optimise the model: building out functionality, improving efficiency, and driving wider adoption across the finance team.

What you'll be doing:

• Owning and enhancing the Anaplan model, including building new modules, refining calculation logic and improving overall model performance
• Partnering with FP&A and wider Group Finance stakeholders to translate reporting and planning requirements into scalable Anaplan solutions
• Supporting Group-level budgeting, forecasting and management reporting cycles
• Identifying opportunities to streamline processes and automate manual workarounds
• Acting as a go-to Anaplan specialist within Group Finance during the contract

What we’re looking for:

• Strong hands-on Anaplan experience, ideally including model building/development rather than just end-user reporting
• ACA qualified strongly preferred (other equivalent qualifications will be considered)
• FP&A background within financial services; listed company experience is an advantage
• Comfortable working at pace in an interim capacity and getting up to speed quickly

The details:

• Location: Central London, 4 days per week in the office
• Rate: £650-£1,000 per day, inside IR35 (depending on experience, we're looking at a range of levels for this one)
• Start: ASAP
