Finance Business Partner

RECfinancial is exclusively partnering with a successful and growing Leicester based business in the recruitment of a Finance Business Partner.

This is an excellent opportunity to join a well-established organisation that is continuing to invest in both its operations and finance function. The role is ideally suited to candidates based in Loughborough, Nottingham, Derby and Leicester / Leicestershire.

Reporting directly to the Finance Director, this exciting Finance Business Partner role has been created to support the continued growth of the business. Whilst the production and review of management accounts will form part of the role, this is not a traditional month-end focused position, with management accounts accounting for approximately 25% of responsibilities.

The majority of your time will be spent understanding the numbers behind the accounts, delivering meaningful variance analysis, looking at where you can add value, supporting budgeting and forecasting processes, producing board-level insights and helping operational stakeholders make better commercial decisions through high-quality financial analysis.

Suitable candidates may currently be working as a Finance Business Partner, Management Accountant, Commercial Accountant or Senior Finance Analyst and will possess strong Excel skills. Exposure to Power BI would be advantageous.

Candidates studying towards, or qualified in, CIMA, ACCA or ACA will be considered, alongside driven qualified-by-experience professionals.

The role offers a hybrid working pattern following the completion of the probationary period, flexible working hours (8:30am–5:00pm or 9:00am–5:30pm), 25 days holiday plus bank holidays rising to 28 days with length of service, the option to purchase up to 5 additional days'' annual leave, a competitive pension scheme, a discretionary company performance-based bonus and a positive, team-focused culture with quarterly company events, awards evenings, Christmas celebrations and regular employee recognition initiatives.

The role has a salary range of between £52,000 and £62,000, depending on experience.
