Lead the budgeting and planning cycle for operations, setting realistic, performance–driven financial targets that support growth.
Prepare monthly, quarterly and annual reports, including variance analysis and clear, actionable recommendations for leadership.
Own detailed P&L analysis, highlighting drivers of performance, risks and opportunities for improvement in a scaling environment.
Develop and maintain financial models, forecasts and scenario plans to support strategic decisions, investments and expansion initiatives.
Act as a primary financial advisor to leadership, providing insight and challenge on commercial and operational strategies.
Partner with operational and sales leaders to translate metrics into financial insight and improve outcomes.
Design and maintain KPIs, dashboards and scorecards that clearly show operational performance and progress against growth objectives.

Visit national site locations to provide on–site financial support, review performance and share best practice across operations.
You’re comfortable working at both strategic and detail level and enjoy influencing senior stakeholders in a growth context.
You’ll bring:
Solid experience in commercial finance, FP&A or finance business partnering, ideally in a complex, operational or multi–site environment.
Strong skills in budgeting, forecasting, financial modelling and P&L management.
A track record of turning data into clear insights that drive action, performance and growth.
Confidence to challenge assumptions and hold leaders accountable for financial outcomes.
Good understanding of financial controls, compliance and risk management.
