We are seeking an experienced Senior FP&A Manager to join our Budget & Forecast team. This is an analytical and hands-on role with responsibility for several key group-wide planning models and processes.

You will play an important role in translating the company's long-term strategic roadmap into financial targets for the annual budget, while taking ownership of recurring revenue planning and group level adjustments.

Working closely with the FP&A Director and finance stakeholders across the organisation, you will ensure that our planning models are robust, consistent and aligned with the company's financial objectives. You will combine strong financial modelling capabilities with a solid understanding of commercial and financial drivers to deliver high-quality planning outputs and continuously improve our forecasting and budgeting methodologies.

We are looking for someone who enjoys working with complex financial models, takes pride in delivering accurate and insightful analysis, and is motivated by taking ownership and finding better ways of working.

Key Responsibilities

Target setting and financial planning

• Develop and maintain the group target-setting model, translating the company's long-term strategic roadmap into financial targets for the upcoming annual budget.
• Work closely with the FP&A Director to ensure target allocations are financially sound, internally consistent and aligned with the overall strategic roadmap.
• Provide financial analysis and modelling to support target-setting decisions, identifying gaps between strategic ambitions and financial plans.
• Analyze key business and financial drivers, identify gaps and challenge assumptions to support robust and realistic target setting.

Recurring revenue planning

• Own and continuously develop the group recurring revenue planning model and associated templates.
• Ensure the model accurately reflects relevant commercial drivers, revenue movements and planning assumptions.
• Drive consistent methodology and application across business areas.
• Act as the primary point of contact for recurring revenue planning, providing guidance and support to the finance community.

Group forecast

• Own the group-level revenue hedge modelling and its application throughout budget and forecast cycles, ensuring consistent application of the agreed hedging methodology.
• Manage and coordinate group-level forecast adjustments, including revenue hedging and other adjustments agreed with the FP&A Director.
• Ensure accurate and timely updates of group-level forecast figures and adjustments in the planning system.

Analysis, systems and continuous improvement

• Review budget and forecast submissions to ensure compliance with central assumptions, guidelines and planning requirements.
• Investigate gaps, inconsistencies and unexpected movements, identifying root causes and driving resolution.
• Identify opportunities to improve planning models, processes and ways of working through automation, AI and other analytical tools.
• Contribute to finance transformation initiatives and system-related projects, helping to make the budgeting and forecasting process more efficient and effective.
• Collaborate with the wider FP&A team and finance community on cross-functional planning activities and continuous improvement.

Qualifications

• Minimum 7 years' experience in Financial Planning & Analysis, corporate finance or financial modelling, preferably in a multinational organisation.
• Strong experience in budget development, forecasting, financial modelling and variance analysis.
• Proven ability to develop, structure and improve financial models, including building models from the ground up rather than simply maintaining existing templates.

• Experience in strategic financial planning, target setting or long-term financial planning is an advantage.
• Strong understanding of financial and commercial drivers, with the ability to translate business assumptions into meaningful financial models and outputs.

• Experience working with complex planning processes and coordinating financial inputs across multiple business areas.
• Experience with ERP or financial planning systems is an advantage.
• Fluent in written and spoken English.

Personal Attributes

• Highly analytical and structured, with strong attention to detail and a genuine interest in understanding what drives financial performance.
• Proactive and independent, with a strong sense of ownership and accountability for delivering high-quality results.
• A critical thinker who is comfortable questioning assumptions, identifying issues and finding practical solutions.
• Commercially curious, with the ability to connect financial modelling with underlying business performance.
• Collaborative and approachable, with strong communication skills and the ability to build effective relationships across Finance and the wider business.
