We're partnering with a fast-growing, international business operating across a complex, multi-site environment to appoint a commercially focused Head of Financial Planning & Analysis (FP&A).

Backed by significant investment and operating across multiple international markets, the business is entering an exciting phase of continued growth, transformation and operational improvement. This is a highly visible role working closely with senior leadership, helping shape financial decision-making across the group.

• Able to translate data into meaningful commercial insight
• Comfortable working in a changing, fast-moving and performance-driven environment
