Ocean Infinity is seeking a Head of Financial Planning & Analysis.
The Head of FP&A will modernise the FP&A function, introducing cutting-edge tools, models, and processes that transform how Ocean Infinity understands its performance. This includes redesigning the budgeting and forecasting framework, establishing a 5-year financial model, enhancing project-level P&Ls, and embedding automation and data-driven decision-making across the business.
The role is central to creating a finance team that not only reports the numbers but explains them -- delivering insight, foresight, and challenge to the Executive and Operations teams.
What you will do:
Strategy, Planning & ForecastingLead the end-to-end budgeting and forecasting process, driving transparency, rigour, and accountability;
Design and implement a robust 5-year financial model to underpin long-term strategic and investment planning;
Introduce modern FP&A methodologies, scenario planning, and driver-based forecasting;
Deliver timely, high-quality insights that link financial outcomes to operational performance.

Partner closely with business leaders to identify trends, opportunities, and risks across the project portfolio;
Introduce tools and dashboards to monitor project profitability and OPEX per activity in real time.
Automation, Systems & DataEvaluate and implement FP&A systems, automation, and AI-driven analytics to reduce manual reporting and improve decision speed;
Collaborate with Finance Systems and IT teams to ensure seamless integration with NetSuite and reporting platforms;
Champion data integrity and consistency, ensuring "one version of the truth" across the organisation.
Leadership & Team DevelopmentBuild, lead, and inspire a high-performing FP&A team recognised for delivering clarity and insight;
Establish clear performance standards and ensure the team acts as true business partners to operations;
Develop team capability in analytics, financial modelling, and storytelling.
Business Partnering & InfluenceDeliver insightful monthly performance reviews and board packs with actionable commentary;
Provide challenge and guidance to operational and executive leaders to improve performance and accountability;
Translate complex analysis into compelling narratives that drive decision-making and impact.
Who you are:Proven FP&A leader in complex, multi-entity, project-based environments (marine/engineering/tech/industrial a plus);
ACA/ACCA (or equivalent) qualified with 5-10+ years in finance/FP&A; strong grasp of US GAAP/IFRS and group consolidations, intercompany and transfer pricing;
Deep understanding of project accounting, cost drivers, utilisation/uptime levers, and margin analysis -- comfortable challenging assumptions;
Passion for modernising FP&A: building driver-based budgets/rolling forecasts, implementing systems, and driving automation/AI to cut manual work;
Advanced modelling (Excel) and hands-on with planning & BI tools (e.g., Anaplan/Adaptive, Power BI/Tableau) integrated to NetSuite or similar ERP;
Commercially minded storyteller: turns data into decision-grade insight; excellent communication, influence, and stakeholder management up to Board level;
Execution discipline meets strategic vision: you design the model, wire the data, and ship the dashboard -- then make sure it's used;
Track record of process improvement and control implementation; obsessive about accuracy and a single source of truth;
Confident operating across international jurisdictions and fast-paced, ambiguous environments; adaptable, curious, and proactive;
Passionate about building a modern, scalable finance function that partners with operations and changes plans, not just slides.
