You’ll be a fully qualified accountant with strong post-qualified experience and a proven track record in commercial finance and business partnering.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
You'll ideally bring:
- Strong commercial finance / FP&A experience.
- Excellent stakeholder management skills and the confidence to work with senior non-finance leaders.
- Strong Excel and financial modelling capability.
- Experience across budgeting, forecasting, scenario modelling and investment analysis.
- A proactive, analytical approach with the ability to move between detailed analysis and the bigger commercial picture.
- The confidence to challenge, influence and communicate financial risks and opportunities.
- A genuine interest in improving processes and finding smarter, more automated ways of working.
Experience within media, digital, marketing or subscription-led businesses would be advantageous, but isn't essential.
