Are you a strategic finance professional ready to make a real impact? Join our dynamic FMCG business as a Senior Finance Business Partner and drive key business decisions at the highest level.

The Opportunity


This is a rare opportunity to join a market-leading FMCG company in a genuinely strategic finance role. You'll be working directly with our CEO and CFO, focusing purely on high-value business partnering activities without the burden of traditional month-end processes or BAU finance duties.

  • Long-term Planning: Lead the development and refinement of our 5-year strategic plan and annual budgeting processes
  • Project Leadership: Spearhead critical business projects and transformation initiatives
  • Team Leadership: Manage and develop 2 direct reports in a collaborative environment
  • Executive Reporting: Present insights and recommendations directly to CEO and CFO level

Why This Role Is Different

  • Pure Business Partnering Focus: No month-end close responsibilities or routine transactional work
  • Direct C-Suite Exposure: Regular interaction with CEO and CFO on strategic initiatives
  • Value-Add Activities Only: Every day spent on analysis, insights, and business impact
  • Project-Led Environment: Drive meaningful change through strategic projects
  • Leadership Opportunity: Build and develop your own high-performing team

What We're Looking For

  • Proven Finance Business Partner Experience: Track record in strategic finance roles within commercial environments
  • FMCG/Consumer Goods Background: Understanding of fast-moving consumer markets and dynamics
  • Strategic Mindset: Ability to see the bigger picture and translate financial insights into business strategy
  • Leadership Experience: Experience managing and developing finance teams
  • Stakeholder Management: Exceptional communication skills with senior leadership experience

What We Offer

  • Competitive Package: Salary up to £75,000 + performance-related bonus
  • Flexible Working: 3 days in our modern Welwyn Garden City office, 2 days from home
  • Career Progression: Clear development pathway in a growing business
  • Strategic Influence: Real impact on business direction and performance
  • Collaborative Culture: Work alongside passionate, high-performing teams
