Finance Business Partner - Retail

Hey! We're Huel, and we're pleased to meet you

Our culture thrives on high performance, and we set the bar high for new Hueligans who join us.

The role

We're looking for a commercially minded, analytically sharp Finance Business Partner to own the financial performance of our global Retail channel and act as a trusted partner to our sales teams. You'll use your experience in previous Retail Finance roles to bring rigour and accountability to our budgets and forecasts, trade investment decisions and retailer / country P&Ls.

• Own the end-to-end financial performance of the global Retail channel across all markets including all commercial insight, budgeting and forecasting, and ensuring correct allocation of revenue and costs to the channel.

• Work closely with the management accounts team to ensure accurate recording of trade and promotional spend and channel-specific costs in each Retail market, and to understand variances to budgets and forecasts.

• Lead the budgeting and forecasting process from a Finance perspective, working closely with the Sales teams and covering gross revenue, trade spend and direct Retail marketing spend.

• Partner the Sales teams providing financial insight and challenge on revenue outlooks, planned promotional activity, marketing spend, retailer negotiations, and new business opportunities.

• Build and maintain retailer P&Ls, giving clear visibility of profitability by account, market, and product.

• Own market-level Retail P&Ls and work with teams across the business to create and drive roadmaps for improvement.

• Build financial models to support business cases for new products / retailers / markets.

• Work closely with the data team to ensure we have robust reporting for all Retail markets to inform decision making.

• Identify and communicate risks and opportunities within the Retail P&L as they arise and suggest opportunities to mitigate risks.

What we're looking for in you

This role is best suited to a fully qualified accountant (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent) with 5+ years post-qualified experience. You will will also have:

• Proven business partnering experience supporting Retail trading teams

• Strong understanding of retail commercial mechanics including trade investment, promotional spend, retailer P&Ls, and margin management.

• Confident communicator who can engage and influence senior non-finance stakeholders

• Commercially curious and takes a genuine interest in the business beyond the numbers

• Highly analytical with the ability to build financial models to the appropriate level of complexity and explain outputs simply and clearly

• Thrives (yet remains calm) when there’s a lot going on and able to juggle competing demands

• Comfortable with ambiguity and able to set your own direction without waiting to be told what to do

• Actively curious about how AI is changing finance, and already thinking about how to use it

And as always, we’re on the lookout for new Hueligans who love a fast-paced environment and are always striving to be their best. We want people who aren’t afraid to think differently and push boundaries. If you’re all about setting big goals and believe that amazing things happen through creativity and teamwork, you’ll fit right in at Huel!

What do we offer in return?

We know that at times, our teams face demanding pressures, and exceptional effort deserves meaningful rewards. That's why we've created a world-class perks and benefits program designed to support our Hueligans in achieving their best, both professionally and personally, while celebrating the global impact they're making!

We are Hueligans

We know diversity isn’t just important... it’s essential. It makes us stronger, sharper, and better at what we do. At Huel, we’re about people, not just sustainable nutrition - real people with different backgrounds, experiences, and perspectives.

Belonging matters here. So does fairness. We want every Hueligan to have the opportunity to thrive, contribute, and be heard - no matter where they come from or what path they’ve taken to get here.

We don’t just welcome diversity of thought…we go looking for it!
