Finance Business Partner - Burton on Trent - £45,000 - £50,000 Did you grow up loving playing with Meccano or trying to figure out how or why things worked? Do you love environments where you can see products being made and understand the flow of money through a factory? This Finance Business Partner role is working for a global engineering group with a turnover in excess of £6bn. More importantly, it's working closely with a Divisional Finance Director to by their main support on the commercial side of finance. So what's the Job? Firstly, it's analysing data. Lots of it. But it isn't analysing data for data's sake, you'll be doing it so that you can take your real world understanding of business and provide meaning and insight to the business. You'll be looking at the levers that need to be pulled, or the business behaviours that need to change in order to improve performance. You'll also be someone that loves tinkering. Making things better. Faster. More streamlined. You'll have a continuous improvement mindset and you'll enjoy providing solutions to problems. You'll also enjoy helping others to implement them, providing the insight and follow up, through KPI measures to see if all that tinkering has changed things for the better. It's not ALL fun and games, there is some involvement at Month-End and you will need to adhere to and improve internal controls, but without having trust in the numbers that are being produced, you can't make effective decisions. So who are you? You'll be an experienced accountant for a start. Ideally qualified, but certainly someone with a depth of knowledge who can hold their own with the engineers and Business Unit leadership team. You'll have advanced Excel skills. Definitely with experience of producing models and definitely with the ability to slice and dice and interrogate large data sets. You'll be someone you builds highly effective relationships, sometimes with a need to provide effective challenge and push back, in a way which gains buy in and traction.
