Finance Business Partner

If you enjoy being close to the operation, understanding what really drives performance, and helping non-finance teams make better decisions, this should feel like a genuinely rewarding role.

This is a proper Finance Business Partner position within a highly established and profitable UK group. You won't be buried in spreadsheets or pulled into day-to-day processing. Instead, you'll be embedded in the site, working alongside operational leaders, getting under the skin of performance, and helping shape better decisions in a business that knows what it's doing.

There's a well-resourced transactional finance team already in place, which allows this role to stay focused on insight, influence, and value creation rather than firefighting. Finance is trusted here, involved early, and expected to challenge constructively.

You'll report into an experienced Finance Director and be part of a strong on-site finance team. The business continues to invest in its people and infrastructure, including a move into a new, modern Mansfield office, reflecting ongoing growth rather than reactive change.

The role

This is a commercially focused Finance Business Partner role, centred on performance, insight, and supporting decisions in a business that is already successful and looking to keep improving. You'll focus on understanding performance across the site, translating the numbers into clear narratives, and working with operational stakeholders to support smarter, more informed decisions.

What you'll be doing:

• Producing monthly business performance reporting
• Supporting rolling forecasts and budgeting cycles
• Analysing KPIs and variances for senior management
• Partnering with budget holders to explain performance drivers and trends
• Forecasting cashflow, working capital, and capex
• Improving and standardising reporting and analysis across the business

The environment

• Part of a well-established, on-site finance function within a profitable group
• Regular, hands-on interaction with operational and site leadership
• A business that values finance being visible, commercial, and involved
• Hybrid working in place, typically three days per week on site

About you

• ACA / ACCA / CIMA qualified with a few years core FP&A or commercial finance experience
• Comfortable influencing senior stakeholders in a mature, well-run environment
• Able to connect complex data and turn it into clear, practical insight

Package

Around £75,000 + 10% bonus + benefits

If you're commercially minded, enjoy variety, and want a role where finance plays a meaningful part in how a successful business continues to perform, this is well worth a conversation.
