About the role
As a Finance Business Partner within our FP&A team, you will play a critical role in consolidating and controlling financial results for presentation to senior stakeholders, including the executive committee and board. This position is at the heart of our month-end and planning processes, ensuring the delivery of accurate, high-quality reports whilst maintaining robust financial controls.
Your work will include reviewing and validating results and reports provided by other teams, partnering across various teams, and collaborating with external stakeholders such as the reward and change teams. You'll analyse cost bases and enhance reporting capabilities, ensuring that insights drive better business decisions.
This role is both operational and strategic, offering a unique opportunity to balance business-as-usual reporting tasks with forward-thinking initiatives aimed at improving processes and uncovering new insights. You will have the chance to work closely with a wide range of teams, fostering collaboration and consistency across FP&A and financial control functions. Reporting to a senior FP&A professional, the role is designed to develop your expertise in financial planning, reporting, and stakeholder engagement while contributing to broader team goals.
This role is based in our Tiddington Head Office, just outside Stratford-Upon-Avon. However, we understand how important a positive work-life balance is, so to help you give your best, we offer great facilities when you want to be in an office environment and support to work some of your hours from home.
About you
You'll be an experienced finance professional with strong technical skills and a passion for delivering high-quality financial insights. Ideally, you'll hold a recognised accounting qualification such as CIMA or ACCA and have proven experience in financial analysis and reporting. While familiarity with systems like Workday Adaptive Planning or Workday Financial Management is advantageous, your proficiency in Excel and ability to learn new tools quickly will ensure your success in this role.
You'll have exceptional communication and presentation skills allowing you to engage effectively with senior stakeholders, simplifying complex financial data and influencing decision-making. You'll be self-motivated, with a curious mindset that drives you to question existing processes and identify opportunities for improvement. You'll thrive in a team-oriented environment, supporting your colleagues. Balancing competing priorities comes naturally to you, and you'll excel at managing the demands of operational tasks alongside strategic initiatives.
This role offers the chance to make a real impact by contributing to the success of the FP&A team, developing your skills, and gaining exposure to a wide range of business areas.
