Finance Manager – Business Partnering
It’s official – easyJet is one of the best places to work in the UK! We are among the winners of the annual Glassdoor Employees’ Choice Awards, a list of the UK’s Top 50 Best Places to Work 2024. You can be a part of it too, our Finance and Treasury teams are detail-focused problem-solvers who handle billions worth of assets and keep us on track for further growth. You’ll play an essential role in maintaining the balance between ‘service’ and ‘cost’ that makes travelling with us both accessible and enjoyable.
Join easyJet as a key player in our Commercial Finance team, where you’ll partner closely with senior stakeholders across multiple commercial areas, including Trading, Revenue Management, and Distribution. In this role, you will support the delivery of budgeted passenger revenue KPIs, deliver detailed financial analysis, and lead forecasting and planning processes for passenger revenue—the largest line on the P&L.
As a trusted finance lead for Project Phoenix (Next Generation Revenue Management), you’ll ensure the successful budgeting, forecasting, and tracking of incremental revenue benefits, collaborating with stakeholders to present strategic insights and financials to senior leadership.
We’re looking for someone with a strong analytical skill set and a knack for providing actionable insights that optimise profitability and business performance. You’ll play a central role in integrating new business opportunities and initiatives into our Commercial Finance reporting, partnering closely with cross-functional teams to support decision-making and drive continuous improvement. If you’re ready to join a dynamic team where you’ll build effective relationships, support junior team members, and directly influence easyJet’s revenue performance, we’d love to hear from you.
What you need to do the role
We're looking for a qualified accountant with over 3 years of post-qualification experience, ideally with a background in large, complex, and fast-paced organisations. This role requires strong analytical skills and a proven ability to conduct variance analysis, identify key drivers, and interpret accounting complexities across balance sheet, cash flow, and P&L.
You will be highly detail-oriented, skilled in summarising large volumes of data, and capable of managing time across multiple tasks and projects to meet deadlines. You’ll need to deliver insights that support business decisions, demonstrate strong commercial acumen, and effectively communicate with stakeholders at all levels.
We’re seeking a proactive team player and self-starter with confidence to provide solutions, who thrives on working independently. Advanced Excel skills (including basic macros) and experience with Planning Analytics are preferred. Aviation experience is an asset but not essential. Experience in a business partnering role within a similar EMEA or global organisation with multiple business units and a diverse workforce is highly desirable.

Competitive base salary
Up to 20% bonus
25 days holiday
BAYE, SAYE & Performance share schemes
7% pension
Life Assurance
Flexible benefits package
Excellent staff travel benefits
