I'm partnering exclusively with a high-growth global technology platform on a genuinely rare FP&A leadership hire. This is a blank-page opportunity, no legacy systems, no inherited processes, just the autonomy to architect a best-in-class FP&A function from the ground up and deploy the latest financial technology to match.
This role will suit a commercially driven finance leader who is energised by building, not maintaining. You will need to be able to work autonomously while also working with senior leadership to make critical decisions.
What you'll be doing
• Design and build a modern, scalable FP&A infrastructure from scratch, selecting and implementing best-in-class planning software
• Establish standardised, automated workflows for budgeting, forecasting and variance analysis across the business
• Own the end-to-end strategic, annual and rolling planning cycles, aligning departmental targets to the long-term platform vision
• Translate complex operational metrics and financial results into high-impact narrative presentations for the executive leadership team and Board
• Embed deeply with commercial, product and growth teams as an internal strategic consultant, driving performance optimisation and ROI analysis
• Provide financial modelling and decision support for high-profile initiatives including geographic expansion, monetisation strategy and new product lines
• Build robust predictive models forecasting marketplace dynamics including retention, churn and global payment processing efficiency
• Identify untapped revenue levers, cost efficiencies and margin expansion opportunities across the global platform
• Recruit, mentor and develop a high-performing FP&A team
What they're looking for
• ACA, CIMA, ACCA qualified
• Proven experience as Head of FP&A, FP&A Director or senior commercial finance leader within a high-growth global tech platform, digital marketplace or fintech
• Demonstrated track record of designing and implementing EPM software and advanced data visualisation tools from scratch
• Exceptional financial modelling and strategic planning skills and able to turn large, unstructured data sets into clean, actionable insight
• Superb stakeholder management with the ability to challenge, influence and partner at senior exec level
• Entrepreneurial mindset, comfortable with ambiguity and a blank page, with the execution capability to deliver institutional-grade infrastructure
For this role you will be leading the FP&A function and is truly a unique role in that sense.
