Operating internationally, the company has developed a market-leading software and data platform serving a highly specialised global sector, helping customers improve operational performance, procurement efficiency and decision-making through advanced technology solutions.
Backed by an experienced investor and with ambitious growth plans, the business is entering a key phase of its development.

The Role
Reporting into the CFO and working closely with senior leadership, the FP&A Director will take ownership of the planning, forecasting and performance management processes across the business.
