Own the numbers that drive the top line. This Senior Finance Business Partner – Sales sits inside a major UK commercial-vehicle sales and aftersales organisation and takes clear ownership of around £900 million of revenue – planning it, challenging it, and partnering day-to-day with the sales leadership who land it.
You’ll be the commercial finance lead the sales team actually wants in the room: close to campaigns, pricing, dealer performance and margin, not parked behind a month-end checklist.

What you’ll be doing
- Own revenue, cost of sales and profitability reporting for a ~£900m book, with clear commentary sales and leadership can act on
- Partner with sales managers on forecasts, campaigns and commercial proposals – challenge assumptions, protect margin, flag risk early
- Lead budget, forecast and latest-estimate cycles for revenue and ROS, including scenario work and transfer-pricing inputs
- Run a clean month-end for the truck revenue P&L and keep controls tight on recognition and governance
- Build forecasting models and Power BI / Excel packs that show what’s driving performance, not just what happened
- Coach direct reports and represent Truck Controlling in commercial forums
What you’ll need
- Qualified accountant (CIMA, ACCA, ACA or equivalent) with a degree
- Around five years in commercial finance, FP&A or controlling, ideally with sales or revenue partnering
