Commercial Finance Manager - FP&A Sales Performance

Berkshire / Thames Valley | £80K plus excellent benefits | International Organisation

4 office days, 1 remote day per week

Are you a commercially astute finance professional who knows what good looks like, trusts their instincts and isn't afraid to challenge the numbers?

We're supporting a well-established international organisation in the appointment of an experienced Commercial Finance Manager to lead sales performance analysis (UK&I), influence commercial decision-making and develop a team of three analysts.

This isn't simply about producing forecasts, explaining variances or creating impressive dashboards.

It's about understanding what drives performance, knowing when the numbers don't tell the whole story and having the confidence to challenge what you're seeing.

The opportunity

Reporting to a senior finance leader, you'll take ownership of sales planning, forecasting and performance reporting across the UK & Ireland. Working closely with Sales, Marketing, Services and Supply Chain, you'll have the autonomy to improve how financial information is analysed, communicated and used to influence commercial decisions.

Your responsibilities will include:

  • Commercial Insight: Understand the real drivers of sales performance, challenge assumptions and identify risks and opportunities.
  • FP&A Leadership: Lead budgeting, forecasting, performance analysis and commercial reporting.
  • Business Partnering: Build influential relationships with senior stakeholders, translating complex financial information into practical commercial recommendations.
  • Process Improvement: Improve reporting accuracy, efficiency and productivity, making better use of existing systems, Power BI and analytical tools.
  • People Leadership: Lead and develop three analysts, moving the team's focus from reporting historical performance towards generating meaningful commercial insight.
  • Decision Support: Provide financial challenge and analysis to support pricing, investment and commercial initiatives.

What makes you a great fit?

We're looking for an experienced, qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA or CIMA) who combines strong technical capability with commercial instinct, personality and confidence.

Someone who has been around the block, understands what good looks like and doesn't need technology to tell them when something isn't right.

You'll bring:

  • Significant experience in commercial finance, FP&A or financial business partnering.
  • Strong commercial judgement, analytical rigour and an instinctive understanding of business performance.
  • A confident, engaging communication style and the ability to influence and constructively challenge senior stakeholders.
  • The ability to educate and engage non-financial colleagues, making financial information accessible and meaningful.
  • Proven experience improving reporting processes and productivity within established systems.
  • Strong leadership skills and a genuine enthusiasm for developing people.
  • Experience with SAP/BPC, Power BI or similar reporting and analytical tools would be advantageous.

Why consider this opportunity?

Because this is an opportunity to do more than just report the numbers.

You'll join an established international business where your experience, judgement and personality will be valued. There's a capable team to develop, established systems to work with and genuine scope to improve the quality, efficiency and commercial relevance of reporting.

Most importantly, you'll have the freedom to bring fresh thinking, challenge existing practices and make a visible difference to commercial performance.

If you're a commercially minded finance professional who enjoys working with people as much as numbers, we'd welcome a confidential conversation.

Apply today or contact me directly to find out more.
