We are a fast-scaling international organisation where Corporate FP&A sits at the centre of the broader finance team, helping to drive overall business planning and supporting the CFO and senior finance leaders on cross-functional projects.
Reporting directly into the Director of Corporate FP&A, this is a critical and highly visible role. You will act as the Subject Matter Expert (SME) on Workday Adaptive Planning within the Finance function. Your primary objective is to bridge the gap between financial strategy and technical execution, ensuring our planning tools are robust, scalable, and provide high-impact insights to leadership.

Work cross-functionally to maintain data consistency, quality, and accuracy across group budgets and reporting.
Implement process changes and best practices to support financial planning cycles, spanning quarterly forecast updates and monthly management information (MI) packs.
Extensive, hands-on experience using Workday Adaptive Planning from a power-user or administrator perspective.
A strong background in Finance or FP&A. A formal accounting qualification is not strictly required, but a thorough understanding of financial planning and business analysis is essential.
Advanced proficiency in Excel and Google Sheets, with a proven ability to translate raw data into clear, actionable insights.
A proactive approach to problem-solving, with a track record of identifying complex issues and building scalable, detail-oriented solutions.
Strong communication skills, capable of explaining technical concepts to non-technical stakeholders and aligning teams across Tech and Finance.
