We hold Finance in high regard as a pivotal driver to our continued success and performance, so if you enjoy working in a front-line, operational function where your work is highly valued and impacts visibly on our people and businesses, this could be your kind of place.

Operating in a fast paced, dynamic environment, you will provide analytical and decision support to the P&H Supply Chain management team enabling the best financial and commercial decisions to be made in order to deliver growth and maintain financial control.

You’ll create and produce effective performance KPIs (feeding daily, weekly and monthly performance schedules) that provide the core financial statistics to the division
  • Continuously challenging current processes and recommend improvements to all aspects of reporting and analysis. Strive to improve processes and reduce time on data production so analysis becomes the key focus.
  • Playing a leading role in finance led planning activities, which include; delivery of the Strategic Plan, annual budget and forecasting cycles.  
  • Attending weekly and monthly review meetings, presenting financial performance to the key stakeholders
  • Managing investment appraisal business cases that relate to Secondary Transport and Product Supply – modelling the impact on financial return and working capital

  • Being an active member of both the Supply Chain & Finance teams who seeks out new opportunities within the remit of their current role and has a willingness to work across all areas of the team to assist others.

What we’re looking for:

You’ll ideally be a qualified accountant or an exceptional candidate studying towards the final stages of an accountancy qualification.  Either way, you will have demonstrated progression in your career to date. You will have advanced modelling skills alongside proven experience of data manipulation. You’ll have excellent communication skills, and be able to explain complex financial processes to non-financial stakeholders. We’re looking for someone who is ambitious and keen to learn - if you think you’re up for the challenge, then we would like to hear from you.

What can we offer you?

A busy and fast paced business with great benefits, and plenty of opportunities for career progression - join Travis Perkins Plumbing & Heating division as a Finance Business Partner and share our success and good times with a hard-working, friendly bunch of people.
