With a vision rooted in the wellbeing and inclusive engagement of our team members, our customers, their end users and our communities, people are the heart of what we do and who we are. Our values unite and guide us in everything that we do.

Our values include: Growing our People, Building Belonging, Innovating Responsibly, Delivering Excellence and Creating Customer Success.

As part of our team, you’ll do impactful work within an inclusive environment where everyone works together to achieve extraordinary outcomes. You’ll be empowered to reach your full potential through managing your own personalised development plan and access to our learning and development programs.

Role Purpose

Acts as a Finance Business Partner providing financial leadership at our UK sites. This role is responsible for driving financial performance improvement through sales and margin forecasting, customer profitability analysis, and financial risk mitigation.

Key Responsibilities

Strategic Business Partnering: Facilitate discussions with the Site Leadership Team (SLT) and General Manager; provide data-driven recommendations and articulate the financial "story" behind results.
Margin & Profitability Management: Analyze historical results and quoted margins to establish goals; proactively manage cost recovery and challenge customer teams to mitigate financial risks.
Forecasting & Reporting: Lead the customer forecast process, including monthly sales/margin forecasts and weekly updates.
Technical Lead & Mentorship: (Non-Negotiable) Act as a mentor and technical lead to the wider Finance Analyst team, bridging the gap between site leadership and junior staff in complex financial areas.
Contractual Oversight: Maintain a thorough understanding of customer contracts and pricing models to ensure proper implementation and execution.
Month-End Process: Oversee month-end close at site level, ensuring results comply with corporate procedures, audit requirements, and internal controls.

Essential Requirements

Qualifications: Fully Qualified or Part-Qualified Accountant (CIMA, ACCA, or ICAS/equivalent).
Experience: Demonstrable experience within an industry-led environment is required (Manufacturing, EMS, or FMCG preferred).
The "Industry Pivot": We welcome applications from those with an Audit or Technical Accounting background looking to pivot into a high-impact, operational business-partnering career path.
Operational Focus: A focus on operational finance (P&L savings, margin analysis) over purely technical/reporting functions.
Systems: Proficiency in Excel/Google Workspace is required; experience with integrated financial systems (ERP) is strongly preferred.

Candidate Profile

Proactivity: A "trusted pair of hands" with the ability to work independently in a dynamic environment.
Strategic Thinking: The ability to balance fast-paced operational demands with the maturity to "slow down" and analyze the long-term impact and "why" behind the numbers.
Critical Thinking: A "CI (Continuous Improvement) mindset" with the interest in leveraging new technology (e.g., AI and automation) to improve processes.
Seeking a "high-potential" candidate looking for a long-term career step and growth within the organization.

In addition to our comprehensve benefits package, this role offers:

Work-Life Balance: 50/50 hybrid working model and a 1:00 PM finish every Friday.
Strategic Exposure: Direct daily interaction with senior members of the organization and external customers.
Growth Environment: The opportunity to join a growing UK business with significant expansion in high-tech market sectors.

Your Rewards and Wellbeing

We believe in rewarding your contribution with a comprehensive package designed to support your life both inside and outside of work.

Growth: Bespoke development plans and volunteer time off
Health: Private medical insurance, Employee Assistance Program and vision care
Wealth: Enhanced pension contributions, life assurance, and group income protection
Lifestyle: Electric Vehicle and Cycle to Work schemes, plus 33 days of annual leave

Application Process

At Plexus, we don't look for culture fit, we look for culture add. We value the unique perspectives you bring and review every candidate holistically, balancing professional experience, education and individual journey.

We are committed to providing reasonable accommodations for individuals with disabilities or special requirements.
