The Role

We’re looking for a Senior Finance Manager to lead the finance function supporting Fora’s Management Partnerships, taking ownership of high-quality financial reporting, planning and commercial insight across the portfolio.

This is more than a traditional financial reporting role. You’ll build a detailed understanding of the commercial and operational drivers behind each Partnership, using that knowledge to strengthen financial performance, improve decision-making and provide credible insight to both internal stakeholders and external partners.

Alongside leading and developing a small finance team, you’ll take ownership of the processes and controls behind our Management Partnerships, helping create consistent, scalable ways of working as the portfolio continues to grow.

Working Pattern

Please note this position is 4 days in the office and 1 day working from anywhere.

Business Partnering & Partnerships

• Develop a detailed understanding of Management Agreements and ensure their financial implications are reflected in reporting, planning and decision-making.
• Bring constructive challenge to assumptions and decisions, helping stakeholders balance financial performance with wider commercial priorities.

Team Leadership & Financial Control

• Lead and develop the Management Partnerships finance team, creating clear priorities, strong financial disciplines and a culture of ownership.
• Coach and challenge the team across reporting, forecasting and analysis, helping build both technical and business-partnering capability.
• Maintain strong financial control across Management Partnerships, including appropriate oversight of balance sheet positions, control accounts and reconciliations.
• Work closely with the wider Finance team to resolve accounting, control and reporting issues and ensure the appropriate treatment of capital expenditure and partner recharges.

Process, Systems & Continuous Improvement

• Shape financial processes and reporting that can scale as the Management Partnerships portfolio develops.
• Identify opportunities to simplify and automate reporting, improving both efficiency and the accessibility of financial information.
