HEAD OF FP&A A Once‑in‑a‑Career Opportunity to Build What Others Only Inherit Imagine stepping into a business that has thrived for decades, yet has never had a true FP&A engine. No inherited team. No legacy processes to untangle. No outdated reporting pack that everyone hates. Just a blank canvas, a business hungry for insight, and a CFO who wants a partner,not a passenger. This is not a role you walk into. This is a role you create. The company stands on the edge of a new chapter - disciplined growth, sharper project selection, higher margins, and a renewed commitment to data‑driven decision-making. Across multiple regions and sectors, operational leaders are asking the same thing: “Where is FP&A? We need it.” They just don’t know what great looks like… that’s where you come in. You will be the architect- of the data, the models, the rhythms, the structure, the culture, and the insight that will reshape how an entire organisation thinks, plans, and decides. Roles like this appear only a handful of times in a career. WHAT’S IN IT FOR YOU 1. A Career‑Defining Greenfield Build You’ll be able to say - and truly mean it: “I built FP&A from scratch: the team, the systems, the forecasting engine, the analytics layer, and the decision‑making culture.” 2. A Dual Career Path (Two Routes, Both Exceptional) This role has been designed with intention - and ambition. Path 1: Deep Specialist → Director Become the company’s technical powerhouse - the person who sets the standard for modelling, forecasting, analytics and commercial insight. OR… Path 2: Commercial Leader → CFO Succession The CFO is a transformation leader by design: she builds, fixes, elevates… and moves on. She has been clear that this role is her natural successor when the time is right. 3. Unmatched Scope and Influence Across multiple regions and sectors, you’ll be embedded with operational and commercial leaders who will pull you in, not wait for you to push your way in. You’ll shape pipeline quality, project performance, margin protection, cash discipline, and bid governance. 4. Build the Technical Engine That Powers the Business If you love the craft, the data, the modelling, the architecture, the analytics - this is your playground. You will design and implement: • Forecasting and planning frameworks, • The reporting engine and KPIs, • Data models and dashboards, • Governance around bids, risks and performance, • A scalable hub‑and‑spoke FP&A team 5. Real Transformation, Not Cosmetic Change This is not a business looking for “slightly better reporting.” This is a business ready for a leap - in thinking, capability and performance. You’ll challenge assumptions, modernise ways of working, streamline decision-making, and embed a culture where insight drives action. 6. Visibility at the Highest Level Board exposure isn’t a later‑career hope. It’s built into the job on day one. You’ll be owning the narrative, shaping decisions, and providing the clarity senior leadership have been missing. WHO THIS ROLE IS PERFECT FOR Someone who… • Is ACA/ACCA/CMA qualified, • Experience in Commercial Finance / FP&A roles, • Thrives when given freedom and responsibility, • Loves building and solving, not maintaining and polishing, • Wants challenge, pace, influence and visibility, • Has the capability and credibility to be deputy to the CFO - or become the CFO, • Is technically sharp, commercially minded, analytically strong, and operationally engaged If you want to be the heartbeat of performance - this is the seat. WHAT THIS ROLE IS NOT ❌ Reporting month-end numbers ❌ Tweaking last year’s budget template ❌ Sitting quietly in finance ❌ A sideways move ❌ Maintenance mode This is a step-change role - for you and for the business. WHO YOU’LL WORK WITH You’ll be partnering daily with: • Regional MDs, • Commercial Directors, • Project teams WHY NOW? Because the business is ready. The CFO is ready. The regions are asking for you before they even know your name. And the blank page is waiting for its architect. Get in touch to find out more - .
