Job description

A career without limits

As the nation's flag carrier, we take great pride in connecting Britain with the world and the world with Britain.

It's something we've been doing for over 100 years, ever since we launched the world's first international scheduled air service between London and Paris.

This originality has been in our blood since day one. It's the spirit we share with the people that fly with us, our partners, and our colleagues.

So, whether you are a reassuring voice on the end of a phone, a smile at the door, under a wing keeping the turbines spinning or landing us gently in far-flung places, a job at British Airways is yours to make.

We know great things can happen when you're inspired to think big and bring your ambition to work every day, which is why, at British Airways the sky is never the limit.

The role: Senior FP&A Manager - Treasury & Working Capital

Cash is at the heart of every airline, and this role plays a key part in helping British Airways understand, forecast and manage it effectively. Sitting within our Finance team, you'll lead cashflow and working capital forecasting, turning complex data into clear insights that support decision-making across the business. Working closely with senior stakeholders across BA and the wider IAG Group, this is an opportunity to influence how we plan for the future and keep our business moving forward. Excited by solving complex problems and improving how things work? This could be a great fit!

What you'll do:

• Lead the cashflow and working capital forecasting process, including reporting and analysis.
• Review, challenge and consolidate forecasts to improve accuracy and insight.
• Partner with Finance, Treasury, Tax and Fleet teams across BA and IAG.
• Forecast overseas cash balances and support foreign currency cash management activities.
• Explain cashflow performance and movements to Finance and non-Finance stakeholders.
• Improve forecasting processes through smarter, more data-driven approaches.
• Promote best practice across Finance and help build capability within the team.

What you'll bring to British Airways:

A curious and analytical approach, combined with strong commercial awareness and the confidence to challenge constructively. You'll enjoy working with people across different teams, translating financial information into clear, practical insight. We're looking for someone who is collaborative, proactive and always keen to find better ways of doing things. An interest in using data to uncover opportunities and improve decision-making will be important too!

What we offer:

We believe that all the people who work with us should feel valued for the part they play. It's one of the reasons our rewards go far beyond a competitive salary.

From the day you join us, you'll get access to brilliant staff travel benefits including unlimited basic and premium standby tickets on British Airways flights. You'll also receive up to 30 discounted Hotline' airfares per year for yourself, friends, and family.

At British Airways you'll have the chance to take on new challenges and move forward in a way that feels right for you. We encourage all those who work for us to consider opportunities right across our business to help you develop and progress.

We never stand still, and we don't expect our people to either.

Inclusion & Diversity

At British Airways we all have a part to play in creating an inclusive place to work.

Diverse representation among our people is really important to us and we recognise that all our colleagues are uniquely different and bring their own originality, creativity and identity to work.

Inclusion and diversity is a key driver of innovation and we're committed to creating a culture where everyone feels that they can be themselves.

We're looking for people from all backgrounds and cultures to join us and be a part of our journey to become a Better BA as we continue to connect Britain with the world and the world with Britain.
