Job title: Finance Business Partner (CIMA/ ACCA Finalist)

Location: Manchester (Hybrid, just 1 day a week in the office)

Salary: £45,000 - £55,000
Job type: Full Time, Permanent

What we think you’ll love:

• A Business That’s Going Places: This business is scaling fast and they're doing it properly. There's structure, there’s strategy, and there’s serious investment in people. If you’re looking to level up, this is the kind of place where the next promotion is never far away.
• A Manager Worth Following: You’ll report into a commercially sharp, ambitious Head of Finance Business Partnering. The kind of manager who gives you space, supports your growth, and is building a high-performing team. No ivory towers just smart, collaborative leadership.
• Hybrid That Actually Feels Hybrid: You'll be expected in their central Manchester office just once a week. The rest is up to you. They trust their people to deliver without clock watching or micromanaging.
• Strategic Exposure: You’ll be at the heart of the commercial engine, supporting contract performance, partnering with operational leaders, and helping shape financial decisions that directly impact services across the UK.

Your new role:

This business is doing big things in the healthcare space, 50+ sites, 500+ staff, and still growing. Appointment numbers are up year-on-year (they're tracking over 250,000 for 2025), and they’re investing heavily in digital services and anything that improves patient care without compromising on cost.

They're one of those rare finds in healthcare: commercially sharp and values-led. There's genuine opportunity here to carve out a long-term career, and they’ve got a proven track record when it comes to promoting from within.

You’ll be stepping into a Finance Business Partner role with a proper blend of commercial impact and technical ownership. It’s one of those roles where you’re close enough to the numbers to stay sharp, but what you do with them is what really matters. You’ll be the go-to person for making sense of margins, cost centres, and contract performance, helping senior leadership make smart decisions that drive better outcomes.

If you're someone who wants more than just a month-end cycle, and you're ready to be part of a business that’s scaling for all the right reasons, you’ll want to take a look at this.

What you’ll be doing:

• Leading the month-end close for direct costs and overheads
• Delivering contract profitability analysis and cost challenge meetings
• Supporting annual budgets, reforecasts, and long-term planning cycles
• Building financial models and dashboards with MI support
• Getting involved in new business pricing and tender support
• Acting as a sounding board to operational leaders and budget holders

This role will be ideal if:

• You’re a CIMA/ACCA finalist who’s hungry to qualify soon
• You’ve worked in industry, maybe in a finance analyst, management accountant or finance partnering role
• You know how to influence non-finance stakeholders and can spot opportunities to trim waste or boost performance
• You’re naturally curious and commercially switched-on
• You’re looking for a company that will back you, develop you, and genuinely promote from within

Why apply?

Because this is a role where your work matters. You’ll be improving how services are run, helping keep them financially sustainable, and working in a business that plays a part in delivering accessible, inclusive care across the UK.

You’ll also be joining at a genuinely exciting time, this business is investing in digital innovation, expanding rapidly, and building a finance team that’s central to the journey.
