FP&A Analyst - Leading Workspace Brand
About us
x+why launched in 2019 with a simple belief: business should be a force for good. We’re proud to be a Certified B Corp, creating hospitality-led spaces that put people and planet alongside profit.
Today we operate 15 coworking, event, and members’ clubspaces across London, Birmingham, Manchester, and Milton Keynes, supporting a vibrant community of 5,000+ members - with more launches on the horizon!
As our portfolio continues to mature and evolve, so do the commercial decisions we make every day. Pricing, occupancy, office reconfigurations, budgeting and forecasting all rely on robust financial modelling and a clear understanding of what's driving performance. That's where this role comes in.
The role
Working closely with the Financial Controller, CFO, Sales, Operations and Executive Team, you'll become the go-to person for commercial modelling across the business. You'll translate data into stories, and stories into better decisions, helping us understand what's working, what isn't and where we should focus next.
This role will suit someone who's looking for more ownership and the opportunity to make a genuine impact. You'll build and maintain the models that underpin pricing, forecasting and budgeting across our existing portfolio. Whether you're evaluating pricing strategies, modelling Day 2 works and office reconfigurations, analysing occupancy trends or supporting site budgets, your work will directly influence how we operate our spaces.
About You
We're looking for someone who's naturally curious. Someone who enjoys getting under the skin of a business, asking questions and using data to solve real commercial problems. You'll want to understand the story behind the numbers rather than simply report them, and you'll get genuine satisfaction from helping colleagues make better decisions.
You might already be working in commercial finance, FP&A, financial analysis, pricing or another analytical role where you've developed a strong commercial mindset alongside excellent technical skills.
Excel is non-negotiable. You'll be building sophisticated financial models from first principles, so we're looking for someone who's genuinely comfortable starting with a blank spreadsheet rather than working from existing templates.
You'll ideally have experience working in a commercial finance role within the flexible workspace sector or another multi-site hospitality business. Power BI would be advantageous, while SQL knowledge would be a bonus rather than a requirement. A degree or professional qualification is preferred, but it isn't what will get you the job. We're far more interested in your analytical ability, commercial curiosity and your appetite to learn.
Why x+why?
At x+why, you'll join a business that's ambitious, entrepreneurial and genuinely collaborative. You'll work alongside experienced finance leaders, partner with teams across the business and see your work influence how we operate our portfolio every day.
If you're ready to take ownership, influence key business decisions, and accelerate your commercial finance career in a supportive, high-performing environment, we'd love to hear from you
What next?
We are committed to building a diverse and inclusive workplace. We welcome applications from people of all backgrounds and experiences and believe diverse perspectives make our community stronger.
One small ask: while AI has its place, we’d love your cover letter to sound like you. Keep it short, honest, and in your own voice and in return, we promise every application will be reviewed by a real person.
All applicants must have the right to work in the UK, unfortunately we unable to offer sponsorship for this role.
