As a leader in the media and content distribution landscape, we provide innovative solutions that empower our clients to stay

About the role.
We’re looking for a Senior Finance Business Partner to play a pivotal role in driving growth, performance, and strategic value
across the business.
As a key commercial finance leader, you’ll work closely with divisional leadership to shape strategy, deliver insight, and support
ambitious, data-driven decision-making. Acting as a trusted advisor, you’ll combine financial expertise with commercial acumen to
influence outcomes, optimise profitability, and enable long-term success.
Crucially, you’ll also play an integral role in shaping and supporting some of our most exciting growth initiatives - contributing
directly to the future direction of the business and helping to realise our long-term ambitions.
This is a high-impact role for someone who thrives on challenge, collaboration, and translating numbers into meaningful business
action.
How you’ll make a difference.
* Partner with senior leaders to provide strategic insight, financial challenge, and commercial support that drives performance
and growth.
* Translate financial data into clear, actionable insights that inform decision-making and shape divisional strategy.
* Lead forecasting, budgeting, and management reporting, ensuring accuracy, agility, and alignment with business priorities.
* Evaluate investment opportunities, pricing models, and business cases to support strategic initiatives and capital allocation.
* Deliver insightful performance analysis and KPIs to highlight trends, risks, and opportunities.
* Champion continuous improvement in financial and operational reporting, systems, and processes to enhance efficiency and
decision support.
* Ensure robust financial governance, supporting audit, compliance, and effective cost management.
* Mentor and support junior finance team members, promoting collaboration, innovation, and commercial excellence.
About you.
* CIMA/ACCA/ACA qualified or qualified by experience.
* Strong background in commercial finance and business partnering.
* Proven experience in pricing, profitability analysis, or financial modelling.
* Experience
What’s in it for you.
We believe success should be recognised and rewarded. When you join us, you’ll benefit from:
* A competitive salary and annual bonus.
* Five weeks’ holiday plus public holidays, with the option to buy extra leave.
* Access to an on-site gym.
* Life assurance (4x salary) and a company pension scheme.
* Enhanced family leave for maternity, paternity and adoption.
* Dedicated Wellbeing and Volunteering Days each year.
