@dillanhall
Senior FP&A and Finance Business Partner with UK multi‑market experience. I turn data into clear decisions for commercial and technical teams.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Senior Finance Business Partner with more than a decade of experience supporting multi‑market organisations in the UK and South Africa. My career has focused on FP&A, commercial finance, budgeting, forecasting, financial modelling, and delivering clear, actionable insights to senior stakeholders.
Across roles at Close Brothers (merchant banking), Chopstix Group, The Clubhouse, HCP Social Infrastructure, Care Management Group and others, I’ve owned full planning cycles, built driver‑based financial models, improved reporting accuracy, and partnered directly with COOs, CEOs, Sales, Marketing, Operations and Group Finance. I’m comfortable operating across time zones, managing complex portfolios, and bringing structure to fast‑moving environments.
My work typically includes:
Budgeting, forecasting and scenario planning
KPI development, performance reporting and variance analysis
Commercial modelling
Month‑end support, revenue recognition and expense analysis
Business case development and strategic project modelling
Process improvement and reporting automation
Cross‑functional partnering with technical, commercial and operational teams
I enjoy turning data into decisions, simplifying complex financial information for non‑finance audiences, and building models and reporting that help leaders understand performance and plan effectively. I’m hands‑on, detail‑driven, and comfortable balancing multiple priorities while maintaining accuracy and clarity.
I’m based in South Africa and open to remote roles with international companies. I bring a strong UK track record, advanced modelling skills, and a partnership‑focused approach to finance.
