Role Summary
The FP&A Manager will own financial planning, forecasting, and management reporting across our multi-entity, multi-currency international group (spanning the UK, US, NL, and India). Based in Pune and working closely with our UK-based CFO, this role is designed to translate complex financial data into actionable strategic decisions. Beyond traditional reporting, this is a highly commercial position; you will actively assess gross margin and pricing risks on RFPs and bids before they are submitted, and own monthly revenue and margin KPIs by project. The ideal candidate brings a modern, tech-forward mindset, eager to leverage Power BI and AI tools to automate reporting, optimize cash flow visibility, and scale our finance function alongside the business.
Key Responsibilities
- Planning, Budgeting and Forecasting – Lead the annual budget cycle, rolling forecasts, and long-term financial plans across all group entities. Build and maintain scenario models (budget, stretch, and downside cases) to support board-level discussions and consolidate entity plans into a single group view while reconciling currency and intercompany effects.
- Cash Management – Run and own the weekly 13-week cash flow forecast, monitoring headroom against banking covenants and proactively escalating emerging financial risks.
- Reporting and Analysis – Produce accurate, timely monthly management accounts and group reporting packs. Run variance analysis against budgets and prior periods with clear commentary on commercial drivers. Develop and maintain critical KPIs covering revenue pipeline, engineer utilization, and working capital.
- Commercial and RFP Support – Act as the strategic finance voice in the bid process. Assess the gross margin and commercial viability of RFP and pricing structures before submission, partnering with sales and delivery to pressure-test assumptions and flag margin risks or unusual contract terms.
- Post-Award Tracking – Provide post-award tracking of actual margins against original bid cases to feed critical performance lessons back into future pricing models.
- Business Partnering – Work closely with department heads to align financial plans with operational reality, providing actionable analysis and early warning on performance trends where targets are at risk.
- Systems, Process and Governance – Maintain data integrity across large, multi-entity datasets. Drive the transition from Excel-based financial models toward automation, owning gross margin and profitability reporting in Power BI and identifying practical ways to use AI tools to accelerate forecasting and variance commentary.
Required Qualifications
- Experience: 6–10 years of progressive experience in FP&A, including a proven track record of building financial reports, models, and performance metrics from scratch.
- Multi-Entity Exposure: Direct experience working across a multi-entity, multi-currency group (ideally with exposure across UK, US, NL, or India footprints).
- Cash Flow Modeling: Hands-on experience building and maintaining short-term (13-week) cash flow forecasts in a multi-currency environment.
- Commercial Acumen: Strong experience assessing commercial and margin risks in pricing, bids, or RFP scenarios rather than just reporting historical data.
- Core Technical Skills: Advanced Excel capabilities (building and maintaining complex, large-dataset models) and strong PowerPoint skills for creating board-ready decks.
- Communication & Stakeholder Management: Excellent written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to influence senior stakeholders and work seamlessly across time zones with a UK-based CFO.
Preferred Qualifications
- Advanced Analytics: Professional proficiency in Power BI and/or SQL to build out automated margin and profitability dashboards.
- AI Tool Integration: Working knowledge of applying AI tools (e.g., Copilot, ChatGPT, Claude) to accelerate finance workflows, reporting automation, or variance commentary.
- PE-Backed Environment: Prior exposure to working within a Private Equity (PE)-backed business structure is highly helpful but not essential.
What We Offer
- Direct exposure to the CFO and board-level decision-making in a PE-backed, internationally expanding business.
- A true group-wide scope with cross-border impact, rather than a narrow, single-entity remit.
- The autonomy and runway to shape, modernize, and automate reporting systems and processes as the business scales.
