- Contribute to the ongoing improvement of systems, processes and reporting capabilities
About You:

- Strong FP&A and commercial finance experience, ideally in a tech, SaaS, or services-based business
- Able to communicate financial insight clearly to both finance and non-finance stakeholders
- Highly proficient in Excel and financial modelling – exposure to Power BI or other BI tools would be an advantage
- Experience in a private equity environment is desirable but not essential
- A proactive, collaborative mindset with the ability to thrive in a scale-up or change-oriented setting
