Finance Transformation Lead
Make a Measurable Difference Where It Matters Most
Are you passionate about turning strategy into tangible results? Do you thrive on ensuring that ambitious programmes deliver real, measurable value? If so, this is a unique opportunity to step into a high-impact role where your expertise will directly shape decision-making, drive accountability, and deliver lasting organisational benefits.
About the Role
As our Finance Transformation Lead, you will play a pivotal role in supporting the success of cross-functional projects-helping to create an environment where colleagues feel supported, challenged, and empowered to perform at their best.
You will lead the development and implementation of a robust benefits management framework, ensuring that all benefits are clearly defined, effectively owned, rigorously tracked, and ultimately realised throughout the lifecycle of the Good to Great Programme. Working closely with senior leaders, programme teams, and benefit owners, you will ensure that both cashable and non-cashable benefits are realistic, measurable, and fully aligned with organisational priorities.
As a key member of the Finance Leadership and Management Team, you will act as a visible role model for our values-promoting collaboration, fostering accountability, and contributing to a culture of continuous learning and service excellence.
This is a high-impact role, offering the opportunity to shape decision-making, strengthen assurance, and deliver long-term value across the organisation.
About You
You are a strategic and forward-thinking finance professional with a strong background in project accounting and benefits management, and you thrive in complex, fast-paced environments.
You bring proven experience in supporting benefits realisation across programmes or large-scale change initiatives. You are confident in challenging assumptions, analysing data, and delivering clear, insightful reporting that supports effective decision-making. With excellent stakeholder engagement skills, you build trust quickly and work collaboratively to achieve shared outcomes.
You will also:
Hold a recognised professional qualification in accounting or financial services (or bring equivalent experience)
Have demonstrable experience managing financial and non-financial benefits within robust governance frameworks
Be confident in influencing others, with a collaborative and supportive approach
Demonstrate a strong commitment to ethical, inclusive, and high-quality practice
Be passionate about diversity, innovation, and continuous improvementAbove all, you will share our vision and values-and be motivated to play a key role in delivering meaningful, lasting impact.
