Director - FP&A - Carried Interest Strategy

JSS are pleased to be partnered with a listed Private Equity firm, who are highly regarded in the market and going through an exciting period of growth.

The company is seeking an FP&A Director to focus specifically on their carried interest programme, responsible for managing, coordinating, and forecasting carried interest arrangements throughout the organization.

This is a pivotal leadership role that involves overseeing complex, cross-functional projects while serving as the key point of contact for senior leadership regarding all carry-related matters.

• Act as the main contact for partners regarding carry projections and related financial insights.
• Collaborate closely with FP&A, tax, legal, HR, and investment teams to ensure the accuracy, consistency, and strategic alignment of carry frameworks.
• Manage a small but high-performing team responsible for modelling, analysis, and operational support.
