Save job

This role offers an exciting opportunity to lead financial strategies and drive business success across a network of independently owned and operated stores. As a key business partner, you will provide strategic leadership and financial insight to optimise funding, maximise returns, and support growth within the Group’s operations.

Key Responsibilities:

As the Commercial Manager, your role will be pivotal in steering the financial performance of the organisation. You will work closely with senior leadership and external partners to optimise capital management and enhance the commercial decision-making process, ensuring that funding strategies align with business goals.

  • Strategic Commercial Leadership: Lead the financial planning, management of treasury activities and capital structure to drive profitability and business outcomes.
  • Collaborative Business Partnering: Work alongside key stakeholders to optimise capital management and ensure resources are aligned with the organisation’s goals.
  • Financial Optimisation: Maximise returns by managing Group funding and deposit activities, while supporting the overall commercial strategy.
  • Performance Reporting: Refine and enhance financial reporting across all business units, providing insightful analysis and recommendations to senior leadership.
  • Relationship Management: Build and maintain effective relationships with financial institutions, service providers, and internal stakeholders to support business objectives.
  • Risk and Control Environment: Ensure financial processes and control frameworks are robust and align with the Group’s risk appetite, supporting the business in mitigating financial risks. Refine and report key financial information at all levels up to the Audit Risk and Compliance Committee

What you'll bring:

You will be a commercially minded professional with a strong background/foundation in technical financial reporting, compliance and business partnering. Your ability to operate both at a strategic level and dive into tactical detail will enable you to drive business growth and deliver strong financial performance.

  • Strong commercial acumen with the ability to influence decision-making at the highest levels.
  • Proven track record of financial management, business planning, and commercial modelling.
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills, with the ability to engage senior stakeholders and external partners.
  • Expertise in optimising capital management and driving business growth.
  • A deep understanding of financial processes, controls, and risk management frameworks.
  • Proficiency with financial systems (experience with SAP is an advantage) and a strong interest in global markets.

Our client is a forward-thinking FMCG organisation dedicated to continuous improvement and driving commercial success. You’ll be part of a collaborative team that values high performance and innovation, working within a culture that encourages teamwork and leadership. This is an opportunity to make a real impact on business outcomes and contribute to the success of a large-scale operation.
