Senior Director, FP&A (Commercial Finance Leadership)


A global industrial and energy-focused organization is seeking a senior finance leader to own and elevate its commercial FP&A function across a complex, multi-entity operation.

This is a high-impact role sitting at the center of strategy, performance, and decision support—partnering directly with senior leadership to shape how the business plans, invests, and grows.

Why this opportunity stands out

This isn’t a “reporting role FP&A” job. It’s a seat at the table.

You’ll be driving enterprise planning, influencing commercial strategy, and building the financial backbone that supports pricing, growth initiatives, and operational decisions across a diversified global footprint. There’s real scope here to modernize tools, sharpen forecasting, and define how performance is measured at scale.


What you’ll be doing

  • Own the full planning cycle: long-range strategy, annual budgeting, and rolling forecasts
  • Build and refine forecasting, budgeting, and financial modeling frameworks and tools
  • Deliver executive-level reporting packages with clear insights on performance, risks, and opportunities
  • Lead KPI development and performance measurement standards across the business
  • Partner with commercial and operational teams on pricing, profitability, and growth initiatives
  • Support business cases, scenario modeling, and ad hoc strategic analysis
  • Manage and develop a high-performing FP&A team


What they’re looking for

  • Proven FP&A leadership experience in a complex, fast-moving environment
  • Strong background in budgeting, forecasting, and multi-year planning models
  • Experience building financial tools and scalable planning processes
  • Ability to translate data into clear commercial insight and executive-ready narratives
  • Strong business partnering skills across finance, operations, and commercial teams
  • CPA or MBA preferred
  • Multi-currency experience is a plus
  • Comfortable with 15–20% travel depending on business needs


What good looks like

Someone who doesn’t just “run the numbers,” but challenges assumptions, drives clarity, and helps leadership make sharper decisions faster.


If you’re looking for a role where FP&A actually shapes strategy instead of just tracking it, this is it.
