Finance Business Partner - Commercial & Business Development

We have an exciting opportunity for a commercially minded Finance Business Partner to join Our Future Health and work at the intersection of Finance and Business Development.

This is not a role that sits on the sidelines reporting on what has already happened. You will work closely with our Commercial and Philanthropy leadership teams, using financial modelling, data and commercial insight to help shape decisions about projects, partnerships, pricing, investment and new revenue opportunities.

You will play a key role in helping us grow both commercial and philanthropic income, while ensuring that opportunities are financially sustainable and aligned with our wider organisational goals.

This is an opportunity to bring your commercial finance expertise into an organisation with an ambitious mission, and to help build and evolve the financial approaches, models and insight that support that ambition.

What you'll be doing

As Finance Business Partner – Commercial & Business Development, you will be a key financial partner to our Business Development team. You will bring financial insight into commercial conversations from the earliest stages, helping colleagues understand the opportunities, risks and financial implications of different options.

You will:

• Partner closely with Business Development leadership, providing financial insight, advice and constructive challenge to support commercial and strategic decision-making.
• Build and develop financial models to assess new opportunities, projects, partnerships and revenue streams, translating complex information into clear recommendations.
• Support pricing and commercial strategy, working with the Finance and Business Development colleagues to consider pricing approaches, billing structures and the financial implications of new revenue streams.
• Model different scenarios and assumptions, helping the business understand the potential impact of different approaches on income, expenditure, cashflow and key measures.
• Support the development of business cases, helping teams assess the financial viability and potential value of new projects and activities, then monitoring and reporting on performance if approved.
• Lead the financial input into philanthropic and charity partner funding bids, alongside financial reporting for funding secured against agreed donor terms.
• Develop and improve income forecasting models for Business Development, including the costs associated with expected revenue streams.
• Provide clear financial insight into performance, using monthly reporting and analysis to help senior stakeholders understand what is happening and where action may be needed.
• Challenge assumptions and help identify risks and opportunities within budgets, forecasts and commercial plans.
• Support Executive, Committee and Board reporting and presentations, bringing financial insight into wider organisational decision-making.
• Work alongside other Finance Business Partners to develop forecasting and reporting that focuses increasingly on programmes, commercial activity and business outcomes, rather than purely functional budgets.
• Contribute to Steering Committees and cross-functional work, ensuring financial considerations are embedded into decisions from the outset.

You will also play an important role in developing how Finance and Business Development work together, helping to evolve our approaches, models and reporting as the organisation grows and its commercial activities develop.

We're looking for someone who combines strong technical finance capability with commercial curiosity and the confidence to influence decision-making.
