The Opportunity
Henderson Drake is working with a sharp, high-growth digital consultancy delivering next-gen planning solutions to enterprise clients across Financial Services and beyond.
As a Senior Planning Specialist, you’ll lead implementations using Pigment, building scalable, high-impact models while also influencing delivery methodology, internal IP, and pre-sales strategy. Think: autonomy, variety, and visibility, without the red tape.
What You’ll Be Doing
* Own the full lifecycle of Pigment projects: from discovery and solution design through to go-live and enablement.
* Translate complex business needs into elegant, scalable planning models.
* Lead pre-sales conversations, build proof-of-concept models, deliver product walkthroughs, and help shape client engagement from the outset.
* Contribute to internal growth efforts: onboarding new team members, refining methodologies, and developing knowledge assets.
* Operate as a trusted expert in a collaborative team that values clarity, initiative, and craftsmanship.
What You’ll Bring
* Pigment PRO Certification (or strong platform fluency)
* Led numerous full-cycle EPM implementations, ideally across a variety of planning domains (FP&A, Workforce, Operational).
* Pre-sales experience including scoping, effort estimation, and demo delivery.
* Deep understanding of modelling principles, dimensionality, and how to avoid building a beautiful disaster.
* Strong communicator: credible in front of senior stakeholders, clear in documentation, and collaborative with peers.
* A self-directed mindset
Nice to haves
Accountancy qualification (CIMA, ACCA, ACA) or strong industry-side finance experience.
* Experience using Pigment (or other EPM tools) in an end-user or FP&A context.
* Familiarity with multi-product delivery environments and Agile practices.
* Additional certifications in Pigment’s partner ecosystem
The Setup
* Fully remote, flexible culture (UK-based preferred).
* Ad hoc travel to client sites (mostly UK & Europe).
* Clear runway for growth: this is a delivery role, but one with influence and progression baked in.
