You will support the creation of robust financial plans aligned with CUK strategies, helping to drive performance against these plans.
In this role, you will work closely with members of the Senior Leadership Team (SLT) and their teams to establish strong relationships and gain a comprehensive understanding of their business areas.
This will enable you to act as a sounding board, providing proactive financial guidance to drive profitability, and offering forward-looking perspectives and constructive challenge.
