Commercial Finance Manager | High - Growth Consumer

South West London (Hybrid) | Permanent

Up to -75,000 + Bonus + Benefits

We''re partnering with an exciting, high-growth company to appoint an experienced Commercial Finance Manager into a high-impact role supporting the wider business.

This is a brilliant opportunity to join a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment where the culture is collaborative, down to earth and refreshingly non-corporate. The teams are genuinely supportive, hands-on and solutions-focused people, get stuck in and make things happen.

Reporting into senior finance leadership, this role sits at the heart of commercial decision-making across retail and e-commerce performance.

The Opportunity

The purpose of this role is to provide high-quality commercial finance support to the business, helping teams understand performance, optimise profitability and make better-informed decisions.

You''ll be responsible for building and maintaining insightful financial models, delivering meaningful analysis and partnering closely with stakeholders across trading, buying, merchandising and e-commerce.

This role would suit someone who enjoys pace, ownership and working closely with the business rather than sitting purely in the numbers.

Key Responsibilities

Business Partnering & Performance

• Act as a trusted finance partner across all departments and build strong relationships
• Provide the right balance of support and constructive challenge to drive performance
• Deliver clear, actionable insight to senior stakeholders
• Prepare and track KPIs to optimise key business drivers

• Support scenario planning in a fast-moving trading environment

Commercial Analysis

• Partner closely with Buying and Merchandising to drive efficiencies
• Lead CAPEX forecasting, reporting and post-investment reviews
• Produce robust financial appraisals to support decision-making

Team Leadership

• Support, coach and develop a team of three direct reports
• Foster a positive, collaborative team environment

What We''re Looking For

• Fully Qualified Accountant (ACA / ACCA / CIMA)
• Proven experience in a commercial finance or business partnering role
• Retail, consumer or multi-site experience highly beneficial
• Strong financial modelling and Excel capability
• Confident communicator able to influence non-finance stakeholders
• Highly organised with strong attention to detail
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced, evolving environment

We''re looking for someone who is:

• Commercially curious and proactive
• Down to earth and approachable
• Comfortable rolling their sleeves up
• Calm and solutions-focused under pressure
• A natural relationship builder
• Happy in a fast-moving, less corporate culture
• Someone who gets stuck in and just makes things happen

What''s On Offer

• Hybrid working
• Strong staff discount
• Real exposure to senior stakeholders
• Supportive, friendly and high-performing team
• Genuine opportunity to add value and make an impact

If you''re a commercially minded finance professional who enjoys pace, ownership and working closely with the business we''d love to hear from you.
