FP&A Analyst | Global Music Technology Business | London/Hybrid
Our client is a well-established, globally recognised music business with a passionate customer base and a brilliant culture. The business is in an exciting phase of growth and investment, and the finance team is expanding to match. This is a newly created role offering genuine breadth and exposure from day one.
The Role
This is an FP&A role suited to someone with a strong foundation in finance and accounting, ideally 4-5 years of broad experience including at least 1-2 years specifically within FP&A or a commercially focused analytical role. You will work directly alongside the Head of FP&A and gain regular exposure to the CEO and senior leadership team, taking real ownership of forecasting, budgeting, and board-level reporting across the business. This is best suited to someone already comfortable operating at this level who is looking for a smaller team and more ownership of the day-to-day, rather than a significant step up in scope.
The team is small but high-performing, and the culture is open, collaborative, and creative. You will sit in an open-plan office alongside marketing, label, and leadership teams, so we are looking for someone warm, proactive, and confident communicating with everyone from the C-suite to creative teams.
