About CDP:
CDP is a global non-profit that runs the world’s only independent environmental disclosure system. As the founder of environmental reporting, we believe in transparency and the power of data to drive change.
Partnering with leaders in enterprise, capital, policy and science, we surface the information needed to enable Earth-positive decisions. We helped more than 24,800 companies and almost 1,000 cities, states and regions disclose their environmental impacts in 2024. Financial institutions with more than a quarter of the world’s institutional assets use CDP data to help inform investment and lending decisions.
Our team is truly global, united by our shared desire to build a world where people, planet and profit are balanced. Visit cdp.net or follow us @CDP to find out more.
Role Purpose:
Following the carve-out into a new standalone, international PE-backed group, we are looking for a highly experienced, hands-on Interim Financial Planning Analyst to build the group's financial planning models from the ground up.
The role will build integrated P&L, balance sheet and cash-flow models, supporting the annual budget, long-range plan, scenario analysis and forecasting, with investor-grade outputs for management, Board and PE shareholders.
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
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.
What you will do:
- Build new integrated P&L, balance sheet and cash-flow models from scratch, appropriately reflecting the group's international entities and currencies, with scenarios and project overlays.
- Build the quarterly forecast, annual budget and multi-year long-range plan, (covering revenue, headcount, costs, capex, working capital and cash, overlays and assumptions to investor standard)
- Build flexible scenario and sensitivity modelling around key commercial and operational drivers.
- Produce clear Board and PE investor-grade presentations and outputs.
- Incorporate relevant subscription/SaaS KPIs, such as ARR, retention, churn and recurring revenue, where appropriate.
- Work directly with senior stakeholders across the international group to establish and challenge assumptions.
We're looking for:
- Qualified accountant with at least 5 years’ PQE working in a Private-equity business.
- Must have personally built financial planning models from the ground up, ideally following a carve-out or creation of a standalone international group. Advanced Excel and financial modelling skills essential.
- Experience in a data or information-services business preferred; exposure to SaaS/subscription metrics desirable.
- Hands-on, strong communication skills, commercially minded and comfortable with ambiguity. Must hit the ground running, work independently and turn incomplete information into robust models quickly.
