Company Description We are an international UK-based consultancy specialising in bespoke driver-based financial models, FP&A support, and model reviews for private equity-backed businesses. Our team works closely with clients to clarify business questions, design robust models that answer them, and deliver insights that drive decisions.

Role Description As a Manager, you’ll be an integral part of our delivery team - primarily responsible for: Designing and building driver-based financial models. Leading model reviews to ensure quality and accuracy, with a strong emphasis on self-checking and structural integrity. Managing recurring FP&A deliverables for multiple clients. Coaching and guiding execution team members to raise modelling standards and consistency. Contributing to process improvement, tooling, and modelling standards across our business.

This is a remote role based in India, focused on high-quality execution and internal project leadership. There will be opportunities for this to develop into a client-facing role.

Key Responsibilities 1) Modelling & Delivery Build robust, driver-based financial models from a given driver tree to client-ready standard. Critical thinking to ensure our models reflect commercial reality of our clients' businesses. Use integrity checks and best practices of financial modelling to produce neat and effective tools, enhancing forecast accuracy. Develop clear documentation, assumptions tabs, and usage guidance for all models. Review work performed and ensure thorough self-review before escalation. 2) Model Review & Quality Assurance Lead on model review engagements to ensure that we review in a systematic and complete manner, raising issues where there are potential errors, queries or recommendations. 3) FP&A & Reporting Manage regular FP&A deliverables including monthly reporting packs, variance analyses, and Board reporting. Implement and maintain consistent quality checks, diagnostic flags, and sensitivity tools. Present insights and prepare narrative summaries for client use. 4) Team & Process Help coach, mentor, and upskill junior and mid-level team members in best modelling practices. Propose and implement process improvements, modelling standards, and reusable templates. Act as a subject-matter resource internally for modelling structure decisions and best practices.

Skills & Experience Required 1) Technical & Professional Strong track record of building professional 3-statement driver-based models with integrated scenarios. Minimum 3+ years of direct financial modelling experience, including forecasting, model review, and FP&A deliverables. Overall professional services experience will be 5+ years. Advanced Excel skills (structuring financial models, clearly laying out assumptions, concise dashboards). Experience with modelling reviews and quality assurance. Strong written and verbal communication in English. Qualified Chartered Accountant (ACA/ACCA). 2) Behavioural & Work Style Strong critical thinking and problem-solving ability, and a commercial mindset. Experience with self-review and quality control, reducing rework and eliminating repeated errors. Demonstrated proactivity - taking initiative and seeking improvements in models and processes without direction. Comfortable working independently with autonomy and flexible priorities without extensive supervision. A mindset of continuous learning and process improvement. Mentor and support junior staff’s development. Looking for a career pathway to senior leadership in a growing international consultancy. 3) Who This Role Is Not For People who require frequent supervision or detailed task lists. Those who are uncomfortable reviewing work independently. Candidates who do not seek to improve processes or engage with feedback. Professionals who prefer purely technical processing, repetitive or narrowly scoped tasks, without a commercial thought process on our clients' businesses.
