Finance Business Partner - FP&A (6 Month Interim)

The Opportunity
A high-impact interim opportunity has arisen for a commercially minded Finance Business Partner to join a business currently undergoing significant transformation within its FP&A function.
This is not a "steady-state" reporting role.

The business is at a pivotal point in its finance journey, with a mandate from senior leadership to improve performance visibility, strengthen financial control, and elevate the quality of commercial insight being delivered to the wider organisation.

Working closely with the head of FP&A you'll play a key role in helping reshape how finance partners the business - bringing greater structure, accountability, forecasting accuracy and decision support into a fast-moving environment.

This role would suit someone who thrives in ambiguity, can quickly build credibility with stakeholders, and enjoys bringing clarity and control to functions undergoing change.

Support the redesign and development of FP&A processes, reporting packs and forecasting capability
