The Strategic Finance Manager provides rigorous, decision-ready analysis across Go-to-Market, pricing, commercial performance and market strategy. The key responsibilities include:

• The role combines hands-on quantitative work with the ability to translate findings into clear recommendations for a senior, commercially sophisticated audience.
• This is a high-autonomy position suited to a candidate who is motivated by exposure to genuine strategic decisions and who can take ownership of analysis from problem definition through to recommendation.
• Pricing and packaging Analysis. Prepare and maintain the data modelling and analysis underpinning tiering, packaging and pricing decisions across the product portfolio, including feature adoption analysis, willingness-to-pay assessment, competitive benchmarking and ARR impact modelling.
• Commercial and ARR analytics. Translate subscription and billing data into a clear cohort performance and churn risk, and convert this into actionable commercial recommendations.
• Market sizing and new market entry modelling. Build robust, defensible market-sizing and segmentation models drawing on public-sector datasets, third-party benchmarks and internal customer data to support entry into new segments and adjacencies.
• Decision support. Act as an analytical partner to senior leadership, framing problems, building the underlying models and producing the concise outputs required to reach and communicate decisions.
• Execute strategic GtM decisions: Partner with the FP&A team to embed these decisions within the annual plan, budget and re-forecasting cycle, ensuring that strategic intent is reflected in revenue and bookings targets, cost assumptions and the resulting KPIs.
• Board and investor reporting. Prepare board grade analysis with excellent presentation skills 

Requirements

• Three to six years of relevant experience, ideally combining a foundation in a Big 4 firm (Deloitte, EY, KPMG or PwC) or a strategy consultancy with an in-house commercial or Strategy Business Analyst role.
• Direct experience within a SaaS or recurring-revenue business, with a sound understanding of the relevant metrics, including ARR, net revenue retention, gross margin, CAC/LTV and the Rule of 40.
• A strong quantitative skill set. Advanced Excel and financial modelling are essential, alongside the ability to write SQL to source and interrogate data independently.
• The ability to convert analysis into a clear recommendation and to communicate it effectively, in writing and in presentations, to a senior audience.
• [Desirable] A good standard of presentation craft. Able to build clear, well-structured and visually polished decks in PowerPoint (or Google Slides) that communicate a recommendation effectively to stakeholders.
• A high standard of ownership and accuracy, including the discipline to validate assumptions before presenting conclusions and the confidence to challenge findings that do not hold up.

Desirable

• Experience within a private-equity-backed business and familiarity with the associated reporting cadence and level of scrutiny.
• Familiarity with a modern data stack (for example, Snowflake) and a business intelligence tool such as Power BI.
• Confident use of AI tools as part of day-to-day working practice.
• Sector interest in education, the public sector or B2B software.

The successful candidate will be equally effective working with detailed data and presenting to business stakeholders. They will be intellectually rigorous and transparent, prioritising accuracy over presentation, and will be ambitious about the impact and quality of their work.
