Finance Business Partner

Job description

About

Turn financial information into insight that makes a difference!

Are you an experienced finance professional who enjoys working with people as much as working with numbers?

Do you have the confidence to challenge assumptions, explain complex financial information clearly and help managers make well-informed decisions?

We’re looking for a Finance Business Partner to join our Finance team at Huntingdonshire District Council.

This is an opportunity to work closely with Directors, Heads of Service and budget managers across the Council, providing high-quality financial advice, support and constructive challenge. You’ll help colleagues understand what the numbers are telling them and, importantly, what that means for the decisions they need to make.

About the role

Reporting to the Senior Finance Business Partner, you’ll provide professional financial support across a range of Council services, helping ensure our budgets, forecasts and financial information are accurate, realistic and well understood.

The role covers both revenue and capital finance and gives you exposure to the wider financial cycle, including budget setting, monitoring and forecasting, business cases, financial modelling, year-end accounts, grants and external audit.
