As Shieldpay's FP&A Manager you will be the navigator, translating complex data into a clear roadmap that helps the leadership team steer the business toward growth, profitability, and market dominance.

• Stakeholder Management: Act as contact for auditors, regulators, and external advisors. Operate alongside FP&A, Treasury, and senior stakeholders to align financial controls with business strategy.

• Capital Plans: Prepare and maintain capital adequacy calculations and ensure ongoing regulatory monitoring. Manage wind-down financial models and supporting documentation.

• Treasury Collaboration: Produce regular cashflow, liquidity, and cash position reporting in partnership with Treasury Operations.

• Strong understanding of safeguarding, settlement flows, and high-volume reconciliation processes.

• Demonstrated experience with regulatory capital adequacy calculations and capital methodology documentation.

• Practical experience in producing wind-down financial analysis and required regulatory financial documentation.
