The details

We are seeking a highly skilled Senior FP&A Modelling Manager to lead the development, enhancement and governance of critical financial models, reporting frameworks and strategic analysis across a fast‑moving, complex organisation. This role sits at the heart of business planning and commercial decision‑making, partnering senior finance leaders and cross‑functional stakeholders to deliver insight that shapes long‑range strategy, scenario planning and executive‑level engagement.

You will own and evolve core financial models, drive best‑practice modelling standards, and ensure reporting is robust, efficient and decision‑useful. This is a high‑impact position suited to someone who thrives in dynamic environments, brings strong technical capability, and can influence senior stakeholders through clarity, insight and analytical excellence.

Key Responsibilities:
– Lead the strategic development of core Excel‑based financial models using best‑practice techniques, including sales forecasting models and integrated three‑statement long‑range planning models.

– Own and maintain the long‑range plan model, ensuring timely updates for actuals and forecasts, and supporting future integration with SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) or other planning systems.

– Partner with finance and commercial teams to ensure inputs are accurate and consistent, designing templates and outputs that clearly communicate trends, insights and performance drivers.

– Produce high‑quality Excel‑based reporting, embedding accuracy checks and efficient production processes.

– Deliver ad‑hoc financial analysis and insight to support strategic decision‑making across senior leadership.

– Build and adapt financial models for evolving business needs, including business case appraisal, scenario planning, stress testing and resilience analysis.

– Ensure modelling and reporting align with business planning methodologies and regulatory requirements, identifying gaps and developing pragmatic solutions.

– Work closely with senior leaders and non‑finance stakeholders to deliver high‑quality outputs in environments where priorities may shift or requirements may be ambiguous.

– Support senior finance leadership with executive‑level reporting packs, analysis and messaging.

Key Measures of Success:
– Financial models and reporting that are robust, insight‑led and trusted by senior stakeholders.

– High‑quality outputs delivered to deadline, supporting confident decision‑making and strategic priorities.

– Clear ownership, sustainability and continuous improvement embedded within the wider finance team.

Skills & Experience Required:
– Strong experience building and maintaining integrated financial models in Excel and PowerPoint, covering P&L, balance sheet, cash flow, KPIs, actuals vs budget and trend analysis.

– Proven experience supporting business planning cycles and producing reporting packs that influence senior stakeholders.

– Experience with SAP Analytics Cloud (SAC) desirable, including system mapping and configuration.

– Deep understanding of the inter‑relationships between the three financial statements and how business performance drives financial outcomes.

– Demonstrated capability in agile scenario planning, with the ability to respond quickly to changing assumptions and provide clear decision support.

– Collaborative approach with strong problem‑solving skills.

– Excellent communication and stakeholder management skills, able to distil complexity and present clear recommendations.

– Credibility and presence when working with senior leaders, with the ability to challenge constructively and influence outcomes.

– Proactive, driven and comfortable working independently at pace, highlighting risks and opportunities early.
