• Develop dashboards, KPIs, and reporting packs that drive accountability and insight
• Build and inspire a best-in-class FP&A team with a culture of continuous improvement
• Keep an eye on macro trends and market risks to inform forward-looking strategy

What we’re looking for

• Already operating at senior FP&A leadership level - ideally Head of FP&A or Director of FP&A
• Advanced modelling, analytics, and forecasting capability (this is core to the role)
• Proven success creating and evaluating complex business cases
• Experience in B2B, telco, IT services, engineering, construction, or other complex, project-heavy sectors
• Qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent) with strong academics
• Clear evidence of career progression, stability, and impact in your CV
• Excellent communication skills - able to bring numbers to life and influence at board level
• Commercially sharp, thrives in high-growth and change-oriented environment
• Work directly with an inspiring, dynamic CFO
• High visibility and commercial influence at board level
• Flexible hybrid working (3 days/week near Reading HQ)
