You will work closely with executive leaders, budget holders, programme SROs, strategic finance colleagues and enabling services including Commercial, HR and Met Business Services. This is a senior partnering role requiring commercial judgement, technical credibility and the ability to translate complex financial information into clear, actionable insight for non-finance leaders. Key responsibilities You will provide strategic financial insight on performance, risk and value for money, supporting decisions that improve outcomes and strengthen accountability. You will embed financial expertise into business planning, ensuring medium and long-term plans align with organisational strategy, available funding and delivery priorities.

A key part of the role will be building trusted relationships with senior internal and external stakeholders. You will act as an advocate for strong financial management, improving financial capability across senior leadership through coaching, challenge and clear communication. You will also support innovation in financial reporting and forecasting through digital tools and data-led insight. About you You will be a qualified accountant, ideally CCAB, CIMA or equivalent, with significant experience in strategic financial management within a large, complex organisation.

You will be able to demonstrate advanced analytical and commercial problem-solving skills, with the ability to simplify complexity and present clear recommendations. You will have credibility in providing professional challenge to senior leaders and experience driving organisational performance through financial leadership. You will also bring experience of leading, mentoring or developing finance professionals. The ability to operate effectively with ambiguity, competing priorities and changing organisational demands will be important, as will a track record of shaping strategy and influencing executive-level decisions. This role will suit someone who is collaborative, resilient and values-led. You will understand the importance of strong financial control, but you will also recognise that effective finance business partnering is about more than reporting numbers. Why join the Metropolitan Police Service? This is a rare opportunity to use your finance expertise in a role with tangible public value. The Met’s work directly affects the safety, confidence and wellbeing of London’s communities, and this role will help ensure that public resources are planned, governed and deployed effectively.

HR Business Partner Hybrid, Bloomsbury London To £45k If you’re CIPD Level 5 and want a role where everything’s already set up, this isn’t it. If you want to step into a Head of HR role within 12–24 months, it’s a very different conversation. You’ll join a growing, multi-brand services business that’s been scaling through acquisition. The focus now is getting the foundations right. Systems, structure, culture, capability. Hybrid role, Central London (Bloomsbury). Expect around 3 days a week in initially, with more flexibility as you get established. You’ll start hands-on. ER, advising managers, supporting across brands. Proper operational HR in a business that isn’t polished yet. It’s busy. Sometimes messy. Very real. But this isn’t static. Over time, you’ll step up. More ownership, more strategic input. The plan is clear, this role evolves into Head of HR. You won’t be doing it alone. There’s an experienced HR lead, an L&D function, HR ambassadors across the brands, and external legal support in place. They don’t need polished corporate HR. They need someone who can operate in the real world. Think facilities, logistics, engineering services, anything with a field-based workforce. At £45k it’s not top of market. The trade-off is progression. Real progression, not a vague promise.

The client is open to candidates from a broad range of sectors, provided you bring strong international benefits expertise and the ability to operate effectively within a fast-paced, high-performance environment. We're particularly interested in speaking with: • Experienced Benefits leaders looking for a highly visible international remit, • Emerging talent with approximately 7+ years of international benefits experience ready to step into a broader leadership role, • Professionals with strong EMEA experience and ideally some APAC exposure, • Individuals who enjoy balancing strategic thinking with operational execution, • Strong relationship builders who can influence stakeholders across multiple geographies and levels Success in this role will come from your ability to combine technical benefits expertise, commercial awareness, exceptional stakeholder management and a genuine passion for delivering an outstanding employee experience.
