Finance Business Partner Permanent NEW

Finance Business Partner, PE Backed Energy & Infrastructure, London, up to £75k + bonus

This is not a purely reporting-focused finance role.

We are partnering with a fast-growing, private equity-backed infrastructure business to appoint a Finance Business Partner who can get under the skin of complex contracts, challenge operational performance and turn financial data into meaningful commercial action.

Reporting to the Business Unit Finance Director, you will work closely with commercial and operational leaders across the Energy division, helping to improve project performance, margins, cash generation and working capital.

The role will include:

• Leading budgeting and quarterly forecasting across P&L, balance sheet and cash flow
• Providing clear insight into contract and project performance
• Challenging commercial assumptions, forecasts, risks and opportunities
• Participating in monthly contract reviews and driving greater financial accountability
• Owning divisional cash-flow forecasting and improving billing, collections and cash lock-up
• Supporting the integration of acquired businesses and embedding consistent financial processes

Essential Requirements:

We are looking for a qualified accountant – ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent – with strong Finance Business Partnering or commercial finance experience.

Crucially, you must have worked within infrastructure, construction, rail or a similarly contract- and project-led environment. You will understand the financial complexities of long-term contracts and be confident partnering with both commercial and operational stakeholders.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone who enjoys being close to the business, asking the right questions and having a visible impact on financial and operational performance.
