Role Overview The Group FP&A Lead leads financial planning and analysis for Seedcom Group and its portfolio companies. Reporting to the Group CFO, the role owns the annual budget and rolling forecast cycle, drives monthly business performance reviews, and builds the unit-economics and driver-based models that management uses to allocate capital and steer growth.
This is a hands-on, high-impact role for a finance professional who can move comfortably between detailed models and board-level storytelling - turning numbers from retail stores, wholesale channels, and technology businesses into clear, actionable insights for the Group CFO, portfolio CEOs, and the Board.
Key Responsibilities

Challenge business-unit plans with management to ensure targets are ambitious, realistic and aligned with group strategy.
1.2 Business Performance Review
Lead monthly business performance reviews (MBR) for the Group CFO and portfolio CEOs - actual vs. budget vs. forecast, with root-cause variance analysis.
Build and maintain group KPI dashboards and management reporting packs for Management and Board meetings.

Develop base, upside and downside scenarios; identify emerging risks and opportunities early, and recommend corrective actions or resource reallocation.
1.3 Unit Economics & Driver Trees
Develop driver-based models and KPI trees (traffic, conversion, basket size, gross margin, store/channel contribution, CAC/LTV, etc.) for each business model.
Analyse unit economics at store, category, channel and customer level to identify profit levers and loss-making areas.
Provide financial evaluation for new initiatives, store openings/closures, pricing and promotion decisions.
1.4 Cash, Capex & Working-Capital Forecast
Prepare group and entity-level cash flow forecasts in coordination with Group Treasury.
Manage the capex planning and approval process; evaluate returns (NPV, IRR, payback) and track post-investment performance.
Monitor working-capital drivers (inventory days, receivable and payable days) and propose improvement actions.
1.5 FP&A Capability & Team Development
Standardise planning processes, chart of KPIs and reporting templates across the group; drive automation of models and reports (BI tools, data platforms, AI where practical).
Coordinate with Group Financial Control to ensure consistency between management and statutory figures.
Lead, coach and develop FP&A analysts at group level and guide business-unit finance partners.
