This globally listed e-commerce business sells to customers around the world and is growing again as demand in its market returns. It has spent its early years investing in technology and product. Now it’s investing in finance so the team can support the next stage of growth.

The finance team is small and close-knit. People there value clear thinking, sound analysis and models that are easy to follow.

This is a new role working fully remote building out the FP&A function. That means setting up the planning cycle and management reporting, then becoming the go-to person for commercial insight across the business.

You’ll report to the Finance Director, who is commercially minded and will support as a sounding board through the process. It’s a hands-on individual contributor role to start, with scope to grow the team as the function and business develops.

• Run the annual operating plan, rolling forecast and long-range plan, from the timetable and templates through to the final recommendations
• Build and maintain the company’s integrated financial model, with clear assumptions and calculations that are easy to test
• Prepare the monthly management pack and the FP&A sections of board papers, explaining what’s driving the numbers rather than just presenting them
• Analyse margins and profitability across the business, measure the impact of what you find and recommend practical changes
• Work with commercial and operations leaders on forecasts, investment cases and performance, then track whether agreed actions deliver
• Use automation, scripting and AI tools to cut repetitive work, so you have more time for analysis that changes decisions

• FP&A or commercial finance experience at group level, where you consolidated the numbers and shaped the story
• Responsibility for revenue and cost
• Experience in an listed company, with an understanding of its reporting timetable and controls
• Time in a founder-led or scale-up business
• Strong Excel and modelling skills, plus solid accounting knowledge, including revenue recognition and working capital
• Confidence to make a sound call when the data is incomplete, explain your assumptions and adjust when new information comes in
• Clear writing and presentation skills, so senior leaders can quickly understand your findings and act on them

A degree in a quantitative field is expected. A CA, CPA, CFA or MBA would be an advantage.

• A visible role where your analysis directly influences business decisions
• Fully remote work, with the freedom to set hours that suit you as long as deadlines are met
• The chance to build a function your way, with support from an experienced finance leader
• Room to take on more as the business and finance team grow
