Job Overview
We are hiring an FP&A Manager who can operate as the "manager layer" between our Partner (CFO) and our junior analyst. This role is perfect for someone who is strong with numbers, understands financial statements deeply, can think commercially, and can solve problems without needing step‑by‑step instructions.
You will interpret the numbers, tell us why things changed, build models, update forecasts, and brief the Partner before client meetings. This is a thinking role — not a data‑entry role.
Duties and Responsibilities
Month‑End Analysis
- Review financial statements (P&L, Balance Sheet, Cashflow) prepared by the junior analyst.
- Identify errors, timing issues, unusual transactions, margin shifts, and cash risks.
- Prepare written commentary on:
- Profitability trends
- Margin movements
- Overheads
- Cashflow health
- Forward‑looking risks
- Produce a clean, ready-to‑present analysis pack for Partner review.
Forecasting
- Maintain and update rolling 12‑month financial forecasts.
- Apply changes for:
- New hires
- Pricing changes
- Sales performance updates
- One‑off costs
- Projected margins
- Stress test scenarios and highlight risks or opportunities.
Financial Modelling
- You will lead modelling work such as:
- Pricing & margin models
- Commission structures
- Salary structures
- Hiring impact models
- Cashflow projections
- Product/service profitability
- Scenario analysis
- Break‑even analysis
Advisory Support
- Translate financial movements into insights that the Partner can present.
- Prepare briefings: "Here's what happened this month, here's why, here's what needs to be fixed."
- Flag risks early (cash timing issues, WIP timing, AR blowouts, cost pressures).
Workflow Leadership
- Work closely with the junior analyst to:
- Review their work
- Train and guide them
- Ensure accuracy before anything reaches the Partner
- Build internal quality standards.
- Own the "middle layer" of the delivery engine.
Strategic Support
- Help systemise templates, models, and workflows.
- Improve the consistency and quality of financial packs.
- Maintain an internal action list for each engagement.
Qualifications
- Strong experience in financial analysis (3+ years minimum)
- Excellent understanding of financial statements
- Strong Excel modelling skills (must be advanced)
- Experience with forecasting and scenario modelling
- Ability to interpret numbers, not just prepare them
- Strong written English – able to write clear commentary
- Commercial mindset (able to answer “why did this happen?”)
- Comfortable working independently and thinking for yourself
- Experience in a finance analyst, FP&A, audit, commercial analyst, or advisory role
- Highly detail‑oriented
- Proactive — flags issues before asked
- Strong critical thinking
- Can challenge assumptions respectfully
- Hungry to grow and take ownership
- Comfortable working in a fast‑paced environment
- Able to manage multiple jobs at once
