The Business
We are partnering with a high growth consumer focused manufacturing business that is investing heavily in its leadership, infrastructure and finance capability. Following a period of significant change and transformation, the business is now focused on building a modern, value adding finance function aligned to its operational scale and growth ambitions. As part of this journey, the organisation has created a new FP&A Manager role, designed to strengthen forward looking insight, improve decision support and embed stronger commercial partnering across the business.
Key Responsibilities
Reporting into a senior finance leader, the FP&A Manager will play a central role in shaping how financial insight supports business performance. This is a newly created position, offering the opportunity to define and embed best practice FP&A processes rather than inherit legacy ways of working.
Key responsibilities will include:
- Ownership of the budgeting, forecasting and reforecasting cycles, ensuring clarity, accuracy and robust assumptions
- Production of high quality monthly performance reporting, including variance analysis, KPIs and clear narrative for senior stakeholders
- Acting as a trusted business partner to operational and commercial teams, supporting decision making across manufacturing, supply chain and commercial functions
- Development and enhancement of financial models to support strategic initiatives, investment cases and scenario planning
- Improving the quality, relevance and consistency of management information, moving the finance function towards a more forward looking and commercially focused approach
- Supporting the design and implementation of improved financial controls, planning processes and reporting frameworks as the business continues to evolve

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