When it comes to belonging, there truly is no place like Principality.

At the heart of every great organisation is a clear view of its future. At PBS, we’re looking for an FP&A Accountant who can help shape that future—turning numbers into insight, and insight into action.

This is more than just forecasting. You’ll play a key role in delivering the financial story behind PBS’s ambition—supporting planning, budgeting, and performance analysis that directly influences strategic decision-making and sustainable growth.

Working closely with stakeholders across the business and Finance teams, you’ll ensure our financial plans are robust, forward-looking, and aligned to our long-term vision.

What you’ll be doing

• Supporting the delivery of the annual budget, medium-term plans, and forecasting processes
• Analysing financial performance, identifying trends, and providing clear, actionable insights
• Running scenario analysis to support strategic decisions and evaluate new opportunities
• Identifying and driving process improvements to enhance efficiency and reporting quality
• Partnering with stakeholders to bring clarity to financial performance and future outlooks

What you’ll bring

• A qualified accountancy background (ACA, ACCA, CIMA or equivalent)
• Strong Excel and financial modelling skills, with the ability to interpret large data sets
• Experience in FP&A, forecasting, and performance analysis
• A solid understanding of financial services concepts such as balance sheet, capital and liquidity
• The ability to translate complex data into compelling insights and clear narratives
• A proactive, curious mindset with the confidence to challenge and influence

Impact you’ll have

Your work will directly support:

• Better decision-making through insightful financial analysis
• Stronger planning and forecasting accuracy
• Operational excellence across finance processes 

If you’re ready to move beyond reporting and into a role where you can truly influence, we’d love to hear from you.

We reserve the right to close this vacancy early should we receive a high volume of applications.
