Senior FP&A Analyst – Strategy & Investment Finance
Circa £60,000 + 20% bonus
Hybrid – Bedfordshire HQ + Flexible Working
Large, Market-Leading UK Organisation

Are you a qualified finance professional who thrives in large, complex environments? Do you excel in long-range planning, investment modelling and driving commercial insight that shapes strategic decision-making?
This is a rare opportunity to step into a high-profile FP&A and Property Finance role within one of the UK's largest and most well-known consumer-led groups. You’ll be joining a high-performing central finance team with huge exposure across the business, supporting major investment decisions and long-term planning for a multi-billion-pound estate.

What You’ll Be Doing You’ll play a key role in shaping the financial future of the group through a blend of FP&A, business partnering and property investment analysis. Your remit will include:
Strategic & Long-Term Planning

• Leading 5-year planning, annual budgeting and strategic business planning cycles.
• Supporting senior leadership with insight that influences long-term growth.

Property & Investment Finance

• New site modelling and assessing commercial viability of major property projects.
• Capital investment appraisal and post-investment review.
• Producing high-quality modelling for large-scale development decisions.

Group-Level FP&A

• Consolidated reporting for both internal and external audiences.
• Developing KPI packs and performance dashboards for senior stakeholders.
• Challenging assumptions and providing sharp, commercial insight.

Reporting & Governance

• Capital reporting, scenario analysis, forecasting and risk management.
• Ensuring financial processes support investment discipline and strong governance.

What You’ll Bring We’re looking for someone who combines strong analytical capability with exceptional organisation and communication skills:
Essential

• Fully qualified (ACA / ACCA / CIMA)
• Advanced Excel and financial modelling skills
• Strong understanding of investment principles and accounting processes
• Experience working in a large corporate environment OR Big 4 / Transaction Services / Audit background
• Highly organised, detail-driven, and able to manage multiple complex workstreams

Desirable

• Exposure to capital projects or large-scale property portfolios
• Experience supporting CapEx decisions or large investment programmes

Why This Role Stands Out

• Genuine strategic exposure — you’ll be influencing decisions on multimillion-pound investments
• A chance to work in an industry-leading organisation with a significant UK footprint
• High visibility: your work sits at the heart of group-level decision-making
• Strong bonus and salary package
• Career growth: this environment suits ambitious people who want to move into FP&A leadership, strategy, or investment finance in the future
