Senior Finance Business Partner

Location: Birmingham Flexible Hybrid Working
Salary: £70,000 to £80,000 Permanent, Full Time

Are you a fully qualified finance professional who enjoys building financial processes, improving commercial decision-making and taking ownership of significant capital investment?

Blusource Recruitment is supporting an ambitious, private equity backed organisation in appointing a Senior Finance Business Partner to play a key role in its continued growth and transformation.

The business is highly acquisitive, with significant investment already made into its systems, infrastructure and finance function. With further expansion planned, this is an opportunity to join a fast-moving organisation where finance has an important role in shaping future investment decisions.

The Role

This is a hands-on, commercially focused position offering the opportunity to build something from the ground up.

Rather than inheriting established reporting structures, you will be responsible for developing and implementing financial frameworks, processes and controls around significant capital expenditure.

Working closely with senior finance and operational stakeholders, you will help establish stronger financial governance, improve visibility of investment spending and ensure capital decisions support the wider growth strategy.

Key responsibilities include:

• Designing and implementing CapEx planning, approval, control and reporting processes.

• Taking ownership of capital budgets, rolling forecasts and expenditure monitoring.

• Developing investment appraisals, financial models and business cases for new projects.

• Providing financial insight and constructive challenge to senior operational stakeholders.

• Establishing effective financial governance, reporting and approval frameworks.

• Supporting the financial evaluation of acquisitions, expansion projects and major investments.

• Monitoring project expenditure, identifying risks and reviewing investment performance.

• Working alongside finance transformation colleagues to improve systems, processes and management information.

About You

We are looking for someone who combines strong technical accounting knowledge with commercial judgement and a practical approach to business partnering.

You will bring:

• Full ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualification, essential.

• Significant experience in CapEx, capital investment or project finance.

• Proven experience developing financial processes, controls or reporting frameworks.

• Strong financial modelling, budgeting and investment appraisal skills.

• Confidence working with and challenging senior non-finance stakeholders.

• Experience within a complex, multi-site or capital-intensive organisation.

• The ability to work independently, bring structure to evolving processes and support organisational change.

Experience within an acquisitive or private equity backed business would be advantageous.

The Opportunity

This is a chance to join a growing, well-invested organisation and take genuine ownership of an important area of financial management.

With the backing of an established finance leadership team and significant investment in systems and infrastructure, you will have the opportunity to create processes that support the business’s ambitious expansion plans.

The position offers flexible hybrid working from Birmingham, alongside regular travel to other Group locations.

Salary: £70,000 to £80,000, depending on experience.
