Finance Business Partner (Joint Ventures) | Music Business | London/Hybrid
Harmonic are delighted to be working exclusively with one of the most exciting, fast growth businesses with the Music Industry. Working in a newly opened, extremely modern and exciting office space in London, this world-renowned music company is looking for an Finance Business Partner to manage their Joint Venture relationships.
The company is industry leading in their value led approach to work, with a sociable and friendly team centred around a love of music adding to the workplace culture. This non corporate environment with over 500 employees offers fantastic exposure to the music industry, with a roster of some incredibly exciting and high-profile clients underpinning the success of the business. There is also an ethos of continual development stemming from senior level management, with great promotional opportunities available in the company mirrored by a low staff turnover rate throughout all departments.
The Role
Working within a collaborative and commercially focused finance team, this Finance Business Partner role will play a key part in overseeing the financial performance of the company’s joint ventures. Partnering closely with senior leaders — including regular exposure to the C-suite — you’ll provide clear, actionable insights to support strategic decisions and ensure joint venture performance is aligned with broader business objectives.
Acting as the primary business partner to the business’ most high-value joint venture, you’ll consolidate and monitor the performance of this partner, taking ownership of revenue and distribution reporting, budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning. You’ll also support process improvements to enhance financial governance and reporting efficiency.
Confidence and strong communication skills are essential, as you’ll work directly with very senior stakeholders, presenting findings and recommendations in a clear and compelling way and challenging them when financial considerations aren’t aligned with their plans/suggestions. The role will also involve occasional travel to Leicester to collaborate with regional teams and maintain strong relationships across the business.
This is an excellent opportunity for a commercially minded finance professional who enjoys partnering with senior leaders, taking ownership of high-profile joint venture projects, and driving impactful financial decision-making.
This is a hybrid position (2 days/week in-office) based in their Central London office.
Responsibilities
* Act as the lead finance partner to the Joint Ventures team, providing commercial insight and challenging decisions where appropriate
* Deliver accurate financial analysis and reporting for the C-suite, board, and key stakeholders
* Consolidate joint venture revenue, cost, and distribution data for monthly reporting and sign-off
* Provide variance analysis and clear recommendations to improve JV performance
* Partner with senior stakeholders to deliver operational plans, budgets, forecasts, and 5-year financial plans
* Contribute to budgeting, forecasting, and financial planning for assigned joint ventures
* Provide accurate and insightful financial reporting and commentary for leadership and corporate reporting
* Use data-driven insights to influence decision-making and support key strategic projects
* Drive process improvements in reporting, financial governance, and decision-making tools
* Maintaining strong relationships with this JV partner, visiting sites (including Leicester) as needed
* Ad hoc tasks to support the Head of Joint Ventures and wider finance team
