Senior Finance Business Partner

Senior Finance Business Partner East Midlands | £70,000–£80,000 + car allowance + bonus + pension | Hybrid – 2 days in the office “Find me someone who could outgrow this role in the next year or so.” That was the CFO's brief. If you're ACA qualified, a couple of years out of audit, have moved into commercial finance and are starting to wonder where the next proper step is coming from, this could be worth a conversation. The opportunity here is pretty clear. Come in as a Senior Finance Business Partner, take ownership of a sizeable area of the business, and there's scope to progress through roles such as Head of Business Partnering, take on wider transformation projects, and ultimately move towards Commercial Finance Director over the next few years. This is a sizeable, profitable East Midlands business that is growing, investing and creating a lot of opportunity across finance. They have a good track record of promoting from within and are specifically looking for someone ambitious who wants to move quickly. You'll lead a small team and work closely with senior operational leaders across:

• Commercial performance and profitability
• Pricing and customer / contract analysis
• Forecasting and budgeting
• Risks and opportunities
• Senior management reporting and presentations
• Tenders and wider commercial decisions
• Transformation and process improvement
• Developing the team and pushing finance towards more forward-looking work They're ideally looking for someone who trained in practice, qualified ACA and has since spent a couple of years in a commercial finance or business partnering role within a reasonably sizeable organisation. You don't need to be the finished article. They're looking for someone with enough experience to do the role now, but importantly, someone with the headroom and ambition to grow beyond it fairly quickly. If you're in a larger business where progression feels slow, you're waiting for someone above you to move, or you simply want a clearer route to senior commercial leadership, this is the kind of opportunity that could accelerate things considerably.
