Job Description

FP&A Lead | Rapid Growth Fintech | London / Hybrid

The Client

Harmonic are proud to be working with a fast-growth investor backed Fintech on a newly created role for an FP&A Lead to join their team in London.

As the business prepares for a highly likely corporate transaction in the next 12-18 months, this is an excellent time to join the business with a key remit of elevating the commercial and strategic contribution of finance to the wider business and senior leadership.

This disruptive scaleup is the first to bring technology and automation into an industry craving modernisation. Their SaaS (Software-as-a-Service) platform has seen them quickly take a healthy chunk of a rapidly growing market. In 4 years, they've grown from £0 revenue to £10m and have some incredibly ambitious plans for expansion over the next few years.

This role will suit an individual that is commercially astute with a strong modelling skillset. My client is looking for a proactive individual that enjoys working with financial data to provide insights on performance.

The Role

As FP&A Lead reporting into the Finance Director, you will take charge of financial analysis, budgeting, forecasting, and strategic planning, delivering actionable insights to drive business performance. You will also act as a trusted business partner to the senior leadership team (dotted line to CEO, COO & CTO) to support key strategic business decisions.

You will help to build-out complex financial models of various metrics and KPI's and be involved in high level conversations to help identify areas of opportunity and shape the future of the business.

Duties

  • Financial Analysis & Reporting: Deliver in-depth financial analysis, dashboards, and performance metrics to guide business decisions, identify risks, and drive improvements.
  • Budgeting & Forecasting: Lead budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning processes, monitor performance, and refine models to enhance accuracy.
  • Strategic Planning & Business Partnering: Provide financial guidance across teams, support strategic initiatives, conduct ROI analysis, and assist with M&A due diligence.
  • Cash Flow & Capital Management: Manage cash flow, working capital, and capital allocation decisions to ensure financial stability and growth.
  • Process Improvement & Automation: Enhance financial processes through automation and technology to improve efficiency and reporting accuracy.
  • Compliance & Risk Management: Facilitate audits and ensure accurate, compliant financial reporting.

What You Need
  • ACA Qualified
  • Excellent financial modelling skillset
  • Strong knowledge of excel
  • Excellent analytical and problem solving skills, with a keen attention to detail
  • Strong communication skills, with the ability to convey complex financial information to nonfinancial stakeholders.

What We'd Like To See
  • 2+ years' experience in Big 4 / Top 10 Transaction Services or related service lines
  • SaaS experience and strong understanding of SaaS metrics

Salary: circa £100k (depending on experience)

Location: London / Hybrid (very flexible approach typically 2-3 days in office per week)
