Head of FP&A – Private Equity-Backed Business

Location: Manchester City Centre

£80,000 – £100,000| Free Gym | Healthcare Cashback Plan | Free On-Site Parking

We are currently hiring a pivotal Head of FP & A role for our client, acting as the number two to the CFO and supporting the business through its next phase of growth, including funding exercises and M&A activity. It’s a great time to join. A new CEO has reshaped the culture with a collaborative and transparent mindset, making a impact instantly in his short tenure introducing hybrid working, new values across the business and a business plan that every member of staff can see their role in.

This role goes far beyond traditional forecasting and budgeting, you’ll be the strategic finance lead, working closely with investors, the board, and senior leaders. You’ll bring challenge, direction and insight, acting as a genuine business partner at the heart of decision-making.

Our client is a well-established service-sector business with PE backing and a turnover of just Under £20million, who are seeking a commercially focused and technically strong Head of FP&A.

Your Responsibilities:

* Own the FP&A function

* Act as a senior business partner, influencing decision-making across the group.

* Support the CFO with investor relations, board reporting, and funding processes.

* Get involved in strategic projects, including M&A and PE-backed transformation.

* Challenge assumptions and forecasts – this is a role that requires confidence and clarity.

* Lead a commercial finance team, with plans for future growth.

What You’ll Bring:

* ACCA/CIMA/ACA qualified with at least 5 years’ post-qualified experience.

* Strong FP&A experience, ideally with exposure to private equity or M&A.

* A natural business partner, confident, articulate and able to push back when needed.

* Experience in building and managing financial models.

* Leadership skills, someone who can inspire, grow and lead.

* Background from either a current Head of FP&A or a Commercial Finance Manager ready to step up.

If you are looking for a role within a growing business and the opportunity to work under a forward thinking CEO then this role could be for you.

Interested? Let’s talk. Contact Rory Phelan confidentially at rory@platinumrecruits.co.uk.
