Business Partner, Finance Procurement Operations
Temp Contract | Immediate Start | Hybrid Working (3 days in Central London)
PAYE Day Rate:
£260 - £340
August 2026 - April 2027
We're supporting a globally recognised entertainment organisation to recruit a Business Partner to join its Finance Procurement Operations team on a temporary contract.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone who enjoys working at the intersection of finance, procurement, and stakeholder management. You'll act as the key finance contact for a portfolio of business stakeholders, ensuring purchasing processes run smoothly, financial controls are maintained, and operational issues are resolved quickly in a fast-paced, international environment.
This isn't a traditional accounting or FP&A role. We're looking for someone who combines strong Purchase-to-Pay knowledge with excellent communication skills and a proactive approach to solving problems and improving processes.
What you'll be doing
- Act as the primary Finance Procurement Operations contact for business stakeholders across multiple international locations.
- Manage and oversee the Purchase-to-Pay (P2P) process, providing guidance and resolving complex queries and escalations.
- Create and manage purchase orders, supplier requests, and financial coding, ensuring compliance with internal controls.
- Partner closely with Finance, FP&A, Procurement, and operational teams to ensure spend is accurately recorded and reported.
- Support month-end activities, including accruals, reconciliations, and variance analysis.
- Ensure costs are allocated correctly, including recharging costs across projects and business areas where appropriate.
- Monitor spend against budgets and identify potential issues before they impact reporting.
- Drive continuous process improvements and identify opportunities to enhance finance operations and stakeholder experience.
- Build trusted relationships with both finance and non-finance stakeholders, adapting your communication style to suit a wide range of audiences.

No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

- Proven experience working within Finance Operations, Procurement Finance, or Purchase-to-Pay environments.
- Strong hands-on experience using Workday Financials (essential).
- A solid understanding of purchase orders, supplier management, financial coding, and P2P workflows.
- Knowledge of month-end processes, including accruals, prepayments, and general accounting principles.
- Confidence working with stakeholders across different functions and international locations.
- Experience operating within a fast-paced, high-volume environment where priorities can change quickly.
- A proactive mindset with a genuine interest in improving processes and challenging the status quo.
- Strong Google Workspace skills; Tableau exposure would be advantageous but is not essential.
