Job description

FP&A Specialist — Build Our Forecasting Function from Scratch

Remote (Ireland or UK) | Reporting to the Group CFO | Yomali

Why This Role Exists

Yomali has never had a formal forecasting capability — and that's about to change.

We're a privately-held group of e-commerce businesses (HelpGrid, BuyGoods, MaxWeb and more), and today our leaders don't have a consistent way to forecast revenue and costs, understand variance, or be held accountable to their numbers. We're building that capability from the ground up, using Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central as our forecasting platform — and we need someone who's done this before to lead the build.

This isn't a role where you inherit a working model and keep the lights on. You're building the model.

What You'll Own

Design and build our forecasting tool in Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central, starting with HelpGrid, BuyGoods and MaxWeb

Create and automate reporting, turning raw revenue and cost data into a clear forecast-vs-actual picture

Own the accountability loop — making sure business leaders understand and stand behind their forecasts

Evolve the model as we grow, so it scales as the business gets more complex

You'll work directly with our Group CFO, Financial Controllers, and business unit leaders across the Group — with real autonomy and real visibility into how the business runs.

What Success Looks Like

First 3–6 months: The foundations of the forecasting tool are live — revenue forecasting built and working for HelpGrid, BuyGoods and MaxWeb, with the underlying revenue "formulas" for each business tested and running in Dynamics.

12 months: A forecasting tool that's replicable, scalable and reportable across the Group, with a regular rhythm of forecast-vs-actual dialogue between Finance and business unit leaders.

What We're Looking For

Significant, senior-level experience in FP&A, including having personally built a forecasting capability or model from scratch — not just maintained or administered one that already existed

Comfortable owning forecast-vs-actual conversations directly with business stakeholders, including pushing back when the numbers don't add up

Hands-on experience with Microsoft Dynamics 365 Business Central forecasting is a strong plus — if you've built forecasting systems on another ERP (Oracle, SAP, Sage, Workday, Anaplan, or similar) and can show you adapt fast, we still want to hear from you

Genuinely energised by complex "what-if" modelling — not just running the base forecast, but exploring what a new market or acquisition could look like

Able to work autonomously, without a team beneath you or an established playbook to follow

Professional finance qualification (CIMA/CGMA, ACCA, ACA or equivalent) preferred, not required

Who Thrives Here

You'll do well here if you're the kind of person who gets excited by ambiguity rather than overwhelmed by it. There's no existing FP&A team to lean on — you'll be it, with our CFO backing you up. You'll need to be strategic about sequencing (one business at a time, not all three at once) and comfortable holding your ground with senior stakeholders who've never been asked to forecast before.

This role won't suit someone who needs an established process, a team of analysts to delegate to, or quick, fully-validated wins in the first few months. It will suit someone who wants to point at a forecasting capability in a year's time and say "I built that."

Why People Stay / Love Working Here

Our finance team spans Malta, Switzerland, the Philippines and the UK & Ireland — around 11 people in Finance, and roughly 600 across the wider Group. The culture is genuinely open: people want to evolve how things are done, there's no bureaucracy slowing you down, and our CFO leads by trusting people to own their remit rather than micromanaging it.

What's In It For You

Genuine ownership — you're not maintaining someone else's model, you're building the Group's forecasting capability from day one

Direct access and visibility — you'll work closely with the Group CFO and business unit leaders across the Group, not buried in a large finance function

Fully remote, 9am -5pm (GMT)

A rare chance to shape how an entire Group forecasts and makes decisions — this isn't a role you'll find advertised often

Interview Process

Initial conversation with Talent

Technical discussion with Group CFO — e.g. a forecasting scenario or model walk through

Final stakeholder conversation — CEO + Group CFO

We move quickly and keep candidates informed at every stage.
