Innovative Technology Retailer, Central London


We are looking for a fun, bright, and people-centric Head of FP&A who is seeking a hands-on and progressive new role. This is a very fast-paced and creative business that is rapidly expanding.


They have a global footprint, are PE-backed, and are on a realistic and ambitious growth journey.


Requirements:

  • Qualified Accountant (ACA or equivalent)
  • Strong FP&A experience - reporting through to commercial
  • Ambitious and strong communicator with a good sense of humor


Based in London (3 days a week in the office), this role would suit a very commercial and hands-on FP&A leader motivated by raising the profile of commercial finance across the business.


This is one of the most unique, high-potential, and exciting FP&A roles currently available in London. What makes this role so interesting is the impact you can have on building an innovative function that is data and business partnering-led.


The Role:


This role will be based in Central London, joining an existing team of seven. Reporting directly to the CFO, you will take ownership of all FP&A, Reporting, Commercial Finance, and Business Partnering.


Responsibilities:

  • Manage the global FP&A function
  • Support the CFO in driving world-class insights and data to the wider business
  • Implement and build a new KPI and reporting structure
  • Drive analysis around product launches and performance
  • Understand sales margins, pricing, and manufacturing costs
  • Support on customer performance
  • Understand and apply updated revenue recognition rules
  • Create a true culture of business partnering
  • Build all forecasting, planning, and budgeting processes
  • Work with the wider team to ensure rigorous controls and processes are in place
  • Support in reporting commercial results to key internal and external stakeholders
  • Assist in preparing board packs and glossy accounts
  • Report key numbers and analysis to the board and stock market
  • Advise the CEO, CTO, and MD on commercial analysis
  • Lead a number of key business initiatives (projects)


As you can see, this role is very varied and challenging, working alongside a talented CFO.


Your Profile:

We are looking for an innovative FP&A leader who is passionate about all aspects of FP&A and Business Partnering. Being able to work in London three days a week is critical.


We are sector-agnostic, but experience in Technology, SAAS, Retail, eCommerce, Subscriptions, or Manufacturing would be particularly interesting to explore.
