You will be a qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent) with strong experience across FP&A, commercial finance, or finance business partnering. You will have a proven ability to translate financial data into meaningful commercial insight and use this to influence senior stakeholders and improve business performance.

Strong Excel and financial systems experience are essential, alongside experience across financial planning, forecasting, reporting, and analysis. You will be highly analytical, commercially minded, and confident communicating financial information to senior operational stakeholders.

Experience within a large multinational or complex international organisation would be highly beneficial, as would exposure to service, operational, or commercially focused finance environments. Experience across inventory, supply chain, cost analysis, or similar operational finance areas would also be advantageous.

You will be a strong relationship builder who can operate effectively across multiple regions and cultures, with the confidence to challenge senior stakeholders constructively and provide clear, commercially focused recommendations.

Experience with finance transformation, continuous improvement, Power BI, or advanced reporting tools would be particularly attractive.
