Working closely with senior leadership and the Board, you will play a central role in identifying opportunities to enhance commercial performance, improve profitability and drive sustainable growth. You will provide clear, data-led insight that enables the business to focus on the most value-enhancing opportunities, while ensuring robust financial governance and accountability across the organisation.
Within an environment where finance is highly regarded and trusted, you will be empowered to influence decisions, shape strategy and provide meaningful direction to the stakeholders you support.
The Person

Our client is looking for an ambitious individual who combines strong analytical capability with the communication skills and gravitas required to operate effectively at a senior level within the business.
You will be comfortable challenging both the numbers and the underlying assumptions behind key decisions, bringing a balanced and objective perspective that drives better commercial outcomes.
You will be a qualified accountant (ACA, CIMA or ACCA) with strong academic credentials and a proven track record in commercially focused finance roles. You will enjoy operating in a fast-paced environment where your insight, judgement and ability to engage and challenge senior stakeholders will directly impact the organisation's future success.
