Interim FP&A Manager £60,000 - £70,000 6-Month FTC Hybrid - Leeds

Are you a commercially-minded FP&A professional who thrives on turning data into insight and influencing decision-making at a senior level?

If you enjoy owning analysis, partnering with stakeholders, and getting under the skin of performance across a multi-site business, this could be right up your street.

We're partnering with a fast-growing, private equity-backed business in the Leeds area operating across multiple sites. The business has strong momentum and ambitious growth plans, and they're now looking for an experienced FP&A professional to step in and take ownership of the analysis and reporting function during a key period.

This is a hands-on, commercially focused interim role where your ability to interpret data, influence stakeholders, and provide meaningful insight will be key.

The Role You'll step in as the go-to FP&A lead, taking ownership of reporting, analysis, and business partnering across a multi-site operation.

Performance Analysis: Owning P&L and performance analysis across multiple locations, identifying trends, risks, and opportunities.

Budgeting & Forecasting: Supporting budgeting cycles and ongoing forecast analysis, ensuring clarity and accuracy in financial planning.

Commercial Insight: Analysing promotional activity and business performance to support strategic decision-making.

Stakeholder Management: Working closely with senior stakeholders, translating financial data into clear, actionable insight.

Reporting: Producing and delivering high-quality reports and dashboards, building on existing reporting frameworks.

Systems & Tools: Supporting the continued rollout and utilisation of Power BI, alongside advanced Excel-based analysis.

This role is less about building from scratch and more about owning, enhancing, and delivering high-quality analysis that the business can rely on.

What We're Looking For

  • A strong FP&A professional with proven experience in analysis, reporting, and business partnering.
  • Highly advanced Excel skills - comfortable handling large datasets and building meaningful insights.
  • Confident stakeholder manager, able to influence and challenge where needed.
  • Commercially aware, with the ability to link financial performance to business activity.
  • Experience with Power BI or similar tools would be beneficial but not essential.
  • Qualified (ACA/ACCA/CIMA) is preferred, but we're open to strong qualified-by-experience candidates.

Why Join?You'll be joining a business at an exciting stage, backed by private equity and continuing to scale. With strong leadership in place, this role offers the opportunity to make a real impact by improving visibility, insight, and decision-making across the organisation.

It's a role where you can take ownership, add value quickly, and genuinely influence how the business understands its performance. There's also the opportunity to go permanent.
