Commercial Finance Business Partner

I'm working with a growing business looking for a commercially minded Finance Business Partner to join their team and work closely with key stakeholders to drive performance and support business decisions.

This is a great opportunity for someone who enjoys looking beyond the numbers, getting involved in the commercial side of the business and having a real influence on how decisions are made.

What you'll be doing:

• Analysing financial performance across revenue, margins and profitability, identifying key trends, risks and opportunities against budget and previous year.
• Working closely with commercial and operational teams to understand performance drivers and provide financial insight to support decision-making.
• Supporting pricing strategies, promotional activity and investment proposals, challenging assumptions and assessing their impact on profitability.
• Taking ownership of budgeting, forecasting and longer-term financial planning, helping the business stay on track against its targets.
• Partnering with stakeholders on product range planning, ensuring financial assumptions are robust and commercially viable.
• Preparing management reports, financial commentary and performance packs, translating complex data into clear, actionable insights.
• Identifying opportunities to improve margins, manage costs and drive overall business performance.
• Supporting financial planning and ad-hoc commercial projects as the business continues to develop.
• Taking ownership of Power BI reporting, ensuring stakeholders have access to accurate, meaningful data to support decisions.

What they're looking for:

• ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualified, or qualified by experience.
• Experience in a Commercial Finance Business Partnering role.
• A background in FMCG or consumer goods would be ideal.
• Strong analytical skills, particularly around pricing, margins and profitability.
• Experience with budgeting, forecasting and Power BI.
• Someone confident working with stakeholders, challenging decisions and offering practical solutions.
