And we’re open to remote working as well – all we ask is that you’re able to come into the Haywards Heath office at least once a month, so you can stay connected and keep those all-important face-to-face moments going. Skills you’ll have that will make you a great fit: Workday Adaptive Planning Expertise - you've got hands-on experience configuring, managing, and improving Workday Adaptive Planning, including building models for budgeting, forecasting, workforce planning, and scenario modelling. Financial & Analytical Acumen - you understand financial modelling and enterprise budgeting processes inside out, and you're confident translating business needs into smart, system-based solutions. Stakeholder Management & Communication - you know how to build strong relationships across Finance, FP&A, and the wider business, and you're great at bringing people with you on a journey of change. Change Management - you've successfully led system implementations, upgrades, and continuous improvement projects—and you know how to drive adoption and maximise value from planning tools.
