Interim FP&A Manager

Interim FP&A Manager

My client is hiring an FP&A Manager— a fast-growing, B Corp certified apparel business approaching £100m in revenue.
  
They make apparel built around sustainability; they are doing things differently. It is embedded in how they make decisions, how they operate, and what they stand for.
  
This is the first dedicated FP&A hire into the business. That means building from the ground up and ideally you will have experience of scaling a business before.
  
The role sits right at the heart of the commercial operation — partnering with trading, merchandising, marketing, and supply chain to drive performance and support growth. Key responsibilities include:

• Designing and owning the budget, rolling forecast, and long-range planning cycles across P&L, balance sheet, and cash flow
• Building scalable FP&A processes, models, and reporting frameworks fit for a business approaching £100m
• Sitting in trading meetings and partnering closely with the merchandising team to align sales, stock, margin, and intake plans
• Supporting pricing, promotions, markdown, and range decisions through sharp commercial analysis
• Managing stock levels, cash position, and commercial risk in real time alongside trading and merch
• Owning CAC, LTV, payback periods, channel contribution, and cohort analysis to evaluate marketing performance and customer economics
• Challenging 3PL, warehousing, fulfilment, and carrier costs to protect margin and improve operational efficiency
• Producing insightful monthly reporting with clear risks, opportunities, and actions for the leadership team
• Building out the FP&A function and team as the business continues to scale

Because it's a direct-to-consumer business, you'll need to genuinely understand DTC economics and be confident challenging decisions. The business partnering piece matters as much as the technical skills — they want someone who gets into rooms, builds trust across functions, and pushes back on senior stakeholders when the numbers don't stack up.
  
If you've come from DTC apparel, fashion, or consumer retail, have a strong FP&A foundation, have actually implemented forecasting and planning processes rather than just run them, and you care about working for a business that takes its responsibilities seriously this could be the role for you.
  
Competitive package.
