Job description

Senior Finance Business Partner - Get in the Trenches with C-Level Leaders

We're not looking for a finance controllership. We need a true business partner-someone who can hold their own in C-suite discussions, challenge decisions with data, and drive commercial impact beyond the numbers. If you're looking for a hands-on, strategic finance role where you're expected to get your hands dirty and drive real business outcomes, this is it.

What You'll Actually Do

• Partner with C-level and senior execs-not just as a support function, but as a decision enabler.
• Challenge assumptions with strong financial insight-be the voice that questions, refines, and improves business decisions.
• Get into the nitty-gritty of operations-work with teams on revenue growth, cost efficiencies, and strategic pivots.
• Own financial planning, forecasting, and performance analysis-but with a focus on what the numbers mean for the business.
• Handle high-pressure environments and demanding stakeholders-this isn't a back-office role.
• Build and drive financial models that matter-not just spreadsheets that get filed away.

Requirements

What We Expect

• 10+ years in finance, specifically in commercial finance, FP&A, or finance business partnering.
• You've dealt with C-level execs before-you know when to push back, when to push forward, and how to handle the heat.
• You're not just a number-cruncher-you think like a business owner.
• Strong analytical skills, but more importantly, a problem-solving mindset.
• Comfortable with ambiguity, rapid change, and high expectations.
• No egos, no excuses. Just results.

Why This Role?

• You'll have a seat at the decision-making table, not just the reporting table.
• You'll work on high-impact projects that actually shape the company's future.
• You'll be in an environment where your insights drive action, not just reports.

Benefits

At Substance, we believe in genuine connections, not just filling roles. If your profile is a strong match, you'll hear from us within 1-2 weeks. If not, no empty promises-just know we appreciate your interest, and we'll keep you in mind for future opportunities where you can truly make an impact. Our focus is on building meaningful partnerships, so when the right role comes along, we'll be ready to make it count.
