Senior Finance Business Partner
Job Description
Finance Business Partner | Nottingham | £65,000 - £75,000
A leading Nottingham-based business is looking to hire a Finance Business Partner into a newly created role. This is a true commercial role - no heavy month-end work, minimal reporting, and no BAU accounting. It's about adding value, driving decision-making, and supporting strategic growth.
Key responsibilities:
- Partnering with non-finance teams (Sales, Operations, Marketing) to support planning, forecasting, and strategic decisions
- Providing insightful analysis on performance, margins, and investment opportunities
- Building financial models to support business cases and project evaluation
- Challenging assumptions and influencing senior stakeholders with clear, data-driven recommendations
- Supporting budgeting and forecasting processes, focusing on forward-looking insight rather than historic reporting
What they're looking for:
- Qualified accountant (ACA/ACCA/CIMA)
- Strong business partnering background - comfortable working across functions and influencing at a senior level
- Able to simplify complex data and present clear commercial insight
- Experience in a fast-paced, large or multi-site environment preferred
- Confident with Excel and financial modelling
This is a genuinely commercial role - ideal for someone who wants to step away from core finance and focus on adding value to the business.
