Financial Planning and Analysis Manager

About the Role

We are seeking a fully qualified FP&A Manager to join a well established charity based in Kensington. This is an excellent opportunity for a commercially minded finance professional to play a key role in financial planning, budgeting, forecasting and strategic decision making.

The successful candidate will work closely with senior leadership, budget holders and operational teams, providing high quality financial insight, analysis and reporting to support the organisation’s long term financial sustainability.

Key Responsibilities

  • Lead the annual budgeting and forecasting process across the organisation.
  • Produce accurate management information, financial reports and performance analysis.
  • Provide financial modelling, scenario planning and trend analysis to support strategic decisions.
  • Partner with budget holders to improve financial understanding, accountability and performance.
  • Analyse income, expenditure and variances, highlighting risks, opportunities and recommendations.
  • Support the development of long term financial plans and business cases.
  • Prepare reports and presentations for senior leadership, committees and trustees.
  • Review and improve financial planning processes, systems and reporting tools.
  • Ensure financial information is accurate, timely and aligned with organisational objectives.
  • Support the wider finance team with ad hoc analysis and finance projects.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
