- Own and manage sales and margin reporting systems (SAP, Cognos/TM1)
- Support high-level presentations for executive stakeholders, including VP-level finance and sales leaders
- Maintain and develop planning/reporting tools for improved visibility and accuracy
What We're Looking For:
- Qualified accountant (ACCA, CIMA or equivalent)
- 5+ years' experience in financial or management accounting, with a strong focus on FP&A, commercial finance, or business partnering
- Advanced Excel skills; exposure to SAP and TM1/Cognos Planning highly beneficial
- Strong communicator with the ability to influence non-finance stakeholders
- Experience in a large, complex, or matrixed environment preferred
What's on Offer:
- £55,000 - £67,000 base salary (depending on experience)
- Private healthcare
- 6% employer pension contribution
- Hybrid working with flexibility (2-3 days in the office)
- Exposure to a large international business with long-term development opportunities
