Organisation Description

The Finance Business Partner (FBP) role is designed to provide a bridge between the Finance function and the revenue generating parts of the business. It’s important to build relationships with internal customers and be seen as commercial in outlook rather than the traditional view of the accountant as a desk bound bean counter, remote from the business and perceived as solely the guardian and presenter of numbers.

FBPs need to be able to provide meaningful analysis to the business to assist them in meeting their goals, both regular and ad-hoc in nature. The role will also require you to balance being part of the team that’s accountable for decisions, with being part of the ‘policing’ team that challenges costs and expenditure. It’s important to be able to identify potential improvements and issues then provide, develop and present viable solutions.

For the right candidate, this is an excellent opportunity in a fast paced, growing business.
