Role Purpose

The FP&A Manager leads the organisation’s planning and performance-management agenda and acts as a trusted finance partner to senior leaders. The role combines forward-looking analysis, commercial insight and constructive challenge to improve decisions, strengthen accountability and support delivery of strategic and financial objectives.

The role owns budgeting, rolling forecasting, long-range planning, KPI and performance analysis, scenario modelling, and Executive and Board reporting. Working across functions, the FP&A Manager turns financial and operational information into actionable recommendations, provides clear commercial guidance and helps leaders translate decisions into measurable actions and outcomes.

Key Responsibilities

Planning & Forecasting

• Lead the annual budgeting and rolling forecasting processes, setting the timetable, standards and assumptions and ensuring accountable leaders provide robust, evidence-based submissions.
• Lead long-range financial planning, establishing the planning framework, key assumptions, scenario requirements and governance needed to align financial priorities with organisational strategy and growth objectives.
• Own the development and maintenance of financial models and scenarios that assess commercial opportunities, risks and strategic decisions, ensuring assumptions, sensitivities and outputs are robust, transparent and decision-oriented.
• Analyse actual performance against budget, forecast and prior periods, quantifying variances and explaining the underlying financial and operational drivers.

Performance & KPI Management

• Own the design and ongoing development of the organisation’s financial and operational KPI framework, ensuring measures have clear definitions, accountable owners and a direct link to strategic and financial objectives.
• Diagnose organisational performance by identifying the operational and financial factors driving material trends, risks and opportunities and determining where management intervention is required.
• Lead performance reviews with accountable stakeholders, ensuring material variances are understood, corrective actions are agreed and delivery is monitored through to resolution.
• Develop and maintain financial and operational measures that provide early visibility of progress, risks and performance against strategic objectives.

Executive & Board Reporting

• Own the preparation and delivery of timely, accurate and decision-focused management information for Executive and Board audiences, tailored to the governance and oversight requirements of each forum.
• Distil complex financial and operational information into concise narratives that explain what has changed, why it matters and what decision or management response is required.
• Develop reporting that highlights key performance drivers, risks, opportunities and areas requiring action.
• Maintain consistent reporting definitions, reconciliations and review controls to protect the accuracy and integrity of management information.

Commercial Business Partnering

• Act as a trusted finance partner to senior leaders and business functions, building strong relationships and trust, while ensuring clarity in all communications and commitments.
• Provide financial insight, constructive challenge and commercial guidance to support decision-making.
• Embed a culture of disciplined, value-adding spend by helping leaders assess expected returns, trade-offs and risks before committing resources, and by monitoring whether planned benefits are realised.
• Substantial FP&A or commercial finance experience in a role with responsibility for enterprise-wide planning, performance analysis and decision support.
• Demonstrated experience as a senior finance business partner, influencing strategic and operational decisions, constructively challenging assumptions and holding leaders accountable for agreed financial outcomes.
• Demonstrated experience leading cross-functional budgeting, rolling forecasting and long-range planning processes, including timetable ownership, stakeholder coordination and challenge of underlying assumptions.
• Investment-grade financial modelling and scenario analysis capability including sensitivity analysis and robust model governance.
• Experience developing and reporting financial and operational KPIs.
• Proven ability to prepare and present concise, decision-focused reporting for management, Executive and Board audiences.
• Strong commercial acumen with the ability to translate financial data into meaningful business insight.
• Advanced Excel skills and strong capability across financial systems and modern reporting and planning platforms, including experience designing and delivering Power BI solutions and data visualisations.
• Practical experience using Microsoft Copilot or comparable generative AI tools to improve analysis, forecasting, reporting and productivity, supported ideally by relevant Microsoft or recognised AI certification.
• Strong understanding of data warehousing and data lake environments, including data structures, governance, integration and the translation of enterprise data into trusted financial and operational reporting.
• Excellent analytical, problem-solving and communication skills.
