Overview
Job Introduction
Are you a qualified accountant ready to step into a strategic role that shapes the future of a purpose-driven organisation? At MPS, we protect the careers, reputations and wellbeing of healthcare professionals across the UK and internationally. Now, we’re looking for a strategic, commercially minded Finance Business Partner to join our dynamic Finance team.
You’ll be at the heart of decision-making—partnering with our People, Risk, Finance, and Pricing teams to drive performance, challenge thinking, and influence strategy. You’ll work closely with senior leaders, including Executive Directors, to translate business plans into financial outcomes and deliver insights that matter.
You’ll be the go-to expert for financial planning and analysis (FP&A), helping shape multi-year forecasts, optimise operational spend, and support strategic initiatives across a £300m income base. Expect variety, visibility, and impact.
We’re not hung up on titles. You don’t need to have been a Finance Business Partner before—but you do need the right mindset and experience.
