Barribal Associates are delighted to be continuing to work with this well regarded and high growth business who are embarking on a comprehensive and exciting transformation project with a desire to provide a "best in class" service to the operational business.
The company is a multi-site retailer with a reputation for delivering outstanding value and customer service. The business has grown significantly over the last decade to become one of the leading players in this niche, high demand market.
You will support the FP&A Manager in driving the budgeting, forecasting and reporting processes, as well as delivering clear and insightful ad-hoc analysis.
This role has a significant exposure to senior stakeholders and is an opportunity to become an influential member of the Finance team.
You will have demonstrable experience of finance business partnering and in-depth, insightful analysis from which the operational teams within your customer base can make informed and commercially focussed decisions.
Headquartered just outside Basingstoke, the finance team operate on a hybrid working model - typically two days in the office with flexibility around the remaining three.
Your responsibilities will include, but not be limited to:
- Assist the Senior FP&A manager in building and maintaining the budget/forecast model through the quarterly budgeting cycles.
- Utilise the FP&A reporting software, building and developing reports that enhance the business’ understanding of their operations whilst looking for opportunities to further integrate it as the primary forecasting and reporting tool.
- Help facilitate monthly P&L Review meeting with senior stakeholders, explaining key movements and drivers as well as producing a clear list of actions following the meeting.
- Business partner regional management to support them with their reporting and modelling needs, working closely with Operational Finance as required to provide P&L analysis.
- Assist with the onboarding of new acquisitions by modelling a robust P&L from the business case and ensure reporting consistency across all platforms (Dynamics 365).
- Operate within our matrix structure to own and understand and maintain assigned sections of the P&L. This will include being the subject matter expert to deliver insight and support the wider Finance/FP&A team.
- Establish credibility as a business partner to the multiple stakeholders this role supports.
- Ensure continual improvement in all aspects of the role
Candidates will be fully qualified and hold a proven track record of achievement within a FP&A/business partnering/management accounting function.
Ideally you will have come from a retail business or at the very least a multi-site operational environment. You will demonstrate the ability to work in a fast-paced organisation, taking control of your own workload and managing competing priorities; often tasks will arise from a variety of sources, frequently all with tight deadlines.
You will have a passion for detail and accuracy, aligned to strong commercial acumen and the ability to use your own initiative with the confidence to challenge and present your point of view concisely and effectively. You will enjoy getting into the details, while also seeing and understanding the big picture, with the skill to work with complex data, presenting it in a user-friendly format and able to make concise and insightful observations about it.
What is a prerequisite however, is your attitude and aptitude in taking a proactive and autonomous approach to your work and the desire to have a tangible impact on the business itself. Your commitment to delivery, coupled with a focussed desire to succeed within a demanding, exciting growth business, will provide an enviable platform for the progression and development of your career.
Barribal Associates and the organisations it represents are fully committed to equal opportunities and encourage applications from any age, disability, gender, marital status, race, nationality, religion or sexual orientation.
