    Job summary:

    Do you have a strong financial background, analytical mindset and great people skills? Would you like to work in an organisation that prides itself on investing in staff delivering key legislation to combat economic crime and increase corporate transparency? If so we'd love to hear from you

    This is an exciting opportunity to join a progressive and inclusive team within Strategic Finance at Companies House. You will play a key role in the financial management and influencing the strategic direction of the organisation.


    Your main role as Finance Business Partner is to provide advice, support, and challenge in your area of responsibility to all levels including Directors, Senior Managers, and Senior Responsible Officers whilst supporting the financial reporting requirements and controls.


    You will also challenge the status quo within the area to help support them to achieve their goals and maximise value for money.

    With that aim you will integrate within the business area to understand trends, cost drivers, identify and report on key performance indicators, and consider the full impact of decisions embedding yourself as a financial expert with their operations.


    Companies House offers a flexible and welcoming culture that promotes a healthy work life balance as well as a proactive approach to wellbeing that allows us to be our best at work.

    We recognise that people are the key to our success so offer a fantastic benefits package including flexible working with no core hours, 30 Days Annual Leave, 8 Bank Holidays and 1 Privilege Day as well as enrolment into the Civil Service Pension Scheme with a contribution rate averaging 27%.


    At Companies House, hybrid working is about achieving an effective balance between working in the office and working from other appropriate locations.

    Our approach to hybrid working provides opportunities for you to be adaptable in the way you work so that you can achieve a healthy balance between your work and home life.

    We currently attend the Cardiff office a minimum of one day a week as well as when needed for face-to-face collaboration

    There is a strong culture within the strategic finance teams to provide training, mentoring and opportunities to develop ensuring we support you to maximise your development and to reach your full potential.

    Use of new technologies such as Alteryx and Power BI has seen the team shortlisted for public sector and national finance awards in recent years for advancement in automation, analytics and reporting, which has created time for the team to focus on adding value.

    You will be working alongside a great team, which are established and embedded within the organisation.

    The team support and assist each other and have developed a great team ethos, valuing their colleagues, celebrating success and the embracing the mixture of strengths and differences they possess.

    There is great feedback that shows the development opportunities presented to a recent new starter in the role of Finance Business Partner:
    "Being a Finance Business Partner at Companies House is incredibly rewarding. I work with great colleagues in Finance and across the business areas I support. Everyone is welcoming and willing to help. Since joining, I have also had the opportunity to develop new data and automation skills which are now a standard part of my day to day work. This has also allowed me to spend more time directly involved with business decisions and ultimately being a better FBP because of this."
