You will review internal and external factors to provide information, insight and tools to take the business forward, maintaining and harnessing internal relationships.

Key duties include business partnering for key functional stakeholders, including P&L support with key business decisions on pricing, operating costs and profitability.

In order to be considered, you will be a fully qualified accountant (CIMA, ACA, ACCA), with proven and demonstrable business partnering experience, with good analytical ability and attention to detail. You will have proven experience of presenting plans to support business decisions to both finance and non-finance stakeholders, and ideally have experience in a manufacturing organisation with a continuous improvement agenda.
