About the Job
The FP&A function plays a critical role in enabling disciplined, forward-looking decision-making across the organisation. As IB continues to expand and modernise its Digital & Data capabilities, the scale, complexity, and investment profile of multiyear programmes within the Digital & Data Office (DDO) require dedicated, high-quality financial partnership.
The FP&A Manager will serve as the primary finance business partner to the DDO senior/leadership team, including Chief Digital & Data Officer, providing strategic financial oversight, planning, and performance management for a portfolio of large, multiyear projects and digital transformation initiatives. This role ensures that investment decisions, funding allocations, and programme outcomes are supported by robust financial analysis, sound forecasting, and clear commercial insight.
Operating as a front-office finance business partner, the position combines financial stewardship with business advisory responsibilities. The role is accountable for strengthening financial visibility across programme lifecycles, enhancing cost discipline, and enabling proactive management of financial risks and opportunities associated with long-term digital and technology investments.
Working closely with mainly DDO stakeholders, domain leaders, and the broader Finance and HR functions, the FP&A Manager will help translate strategic priorities into credible financial plans, ensure alignment between budgets and delivery roadmaps, and support leadership in making informed trade-offs. The role requires strong analytical capability, confidence in navigating ambiguity, and the ability to influence senior stakeholders in a dynamic, project-driven environment.
