About the Job

As a Senior FP&A; Analyst, you will play a critical role in partnering with Marketing and Sales leaders to drive financial performance, improve ways of working, and deliver meaningful financial insights across the business.

Reporting to the FP&A; Manager, you will be the key finance business partner for the Marketing Leadership Team and Sales SG&A;, helping leaders make informed decisions while strengthening forecasting, budget ownership and performance visibility.

About You

You bring a proactive mindset and are motivated by continuous improvement. Rather than simply reporting the numbers, you look beyond them, identifying trends, challenging assumptions and driving meaningful change.

You build strong relationships with stakeholders, communicate complex financial information clearly, and are comfortable influencing decisions across a range of business functions. Most importantly,



you're someone who enjoys rolling up your sleeves and making a tangible impact.
