Would you like to Join Hyde as the Strategic Financial Planning Manager?
We are looking for an experienced Strategic Financial Planning Manager to lead the coordination and delivery of Hyde’s long-term financial planning outputs. This is a key role in our Finance team, helping to ensure Hyde has robust, accurate and forward-looking financial plans that support financial resilience, strategic decision-making and future investment choices.
You will work closely with senior finance colleagues, Treasury and stakeholders across the business to translate complex financial information into clear insight for leadership, Board and Committee discussions. Through financial modelling, forecasting, scenario analysis and long-term planning, you will help senior leaders understand risks, opportunities and planning assumptions so they can make confident decisions that support Hyde’s strategic priorities.
A knowledge of a complex real estate business and complex JV's would be beneficial to this role.
What you’ll be doing
- Lead the coordination, review and continuous improvement of Hyde’s long-term financial planning outputs, ensuring they are robust, evidence-based and aligned to organisational strategy.
- Produce clear financial analysis, financial modelling, forecasting and scenario planning to inform strategic decisions, performance discussions and future business choices.
- Connect short-term budgets, forecasts and financial planning assumptions to the long-term financial plan, supporting a coherent view of future performance.
- Prepare high-quality reports, recommendations and financial updates for senior leaders, Board and Committees, translating complex information into clear messages and options.
- Identify financial risks, opportunities and sensitivities, ensuring planning outputs reflect regulation, covenant considerations and long-term financial resilience.
- Work with Finance, Treasury, Development, Operations and other business areas to ensure planning assumptions are accurate, understood and consistently applied.
- Improve financial planning processes, tools and controls to strengthen analysis, reporting and decision support across the organisation.
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.
