Distinct Recruitment
FP&A Finance Manager
Nottingham
£55,000 to £65,000 plus bonus and benefits
Office first environment
Are you currently working in practice, Big 4, Top 10 or Top 20, and starting to think seriously about your first move into industry?
This is a rare opportunity to step into a high profile FP&A role with a large, fast paced UK business, giving you proper exposure to senior finance leaders, executive stakeholders and the full business P&L.
You will be involved in:
• Budgeting
• Forecasting
• The 3 year plan
• Senior reporting
• Commercial analysis
• Business partnering with senior finance leaders and exec level stakeholders
• Helping the business understand what is really driving performance
The role sits in a central FP&A team, so you will get visibility across multiple areas of the business rather than being boxed into 1 division.
Why it is worth looking at
• Real progression, with a genuine route towards Head of Finance level within 18 to 24 months
• Regular exposure to senior finance leaders and the executive team
• A broad view of a large, complex UK business
• A strong mix of FP&A, business partnering, analysis and change
• A proper move into industry and into a more commercial, forward looking finance role
• A business investing in change, better systems, automation and process improvement
They are not expecting someone who has done every part of the role before.
What matters more is your attitude, curiosity, communication style and ability to build relationships quickly.
You will need to be:
• A qualified accountant
• Strong on Excel
• Commercially curious
• Confident communicating with senior stakeholders
• Comfortable challenging people in the right way
• Keen to improve processes and ways of working
• Ambitious and serious about progressing your career
This would suit someone sharp, personable and driven, who wants to build a proper long term career in industry.
There is 1 direct report in the role, although previous line management experience is not essential.
The business is office first, so you do need to be comfortable being on site in Nottingham. That said, there is still flexibility around the working day itself.
Package
• £55,000 to £65,000 basic salary
• 10% bonus
• Strong pension
• 25 days holiday, with the option to buy more
• Wider benefits package
This could be a career defining move for someone who wants to get into a genuinely commercial finance role and progress quickly.
