GB Rowing Team – Performance Investment and Business Manager

The GB Rowing Team is seeking a savvy and experienced professional with impeccable integrity and a strong background in financial planning to join the team’s preparations for LA 2028 and Brisbane 2032.

A bit about the role

British Rowing’s Performance Directorate, Great Britain Rowing Team (GBRT), is responsible for the preparation and delivery of one of Britain’s most successful Olympic and Paralympic sports. The team’s successes rely not only on the front line activity of World Class rowers and coaches, but the business acumen, financial management, and strategic decision making that underpin the team’s present and future from behind the scenes.

Working closely with the Director of Performance and the Performance Leadership Team, the successful candidate will play a pivotal role in the forecasting and financial management of a substantial quadrennial investment (~£28million).

In addition to balancing investment across multiple key areas such as workforce, training activity and equipment, this role will input to the smooth running of the team’s National Training Centre at the Redgrave-Pinsent Rowing Lake. The successful candidate will join in an exciting period of development for this invaluable facility, playing a part in ensuring the continued day to day running whilst preparing it to better support teams for
years to come.

Experience of procurement and a passion for problem solving in a fast paced environment are a pre‑requisite for this role. The successful applicant will be relied upon as a source of sound advice and judgement to senior leadership and as such will have demonstrable experience of being part of a high performing senior management team. An ability to constructively challenge and hold people to account could make the difference both financially and in medal performances on the water.

A bit about you

This is a pivotal role in driving the performance team forwards and would suit someone who can demonstrate strong business acumen alongside significant experience in financial planning, creative problem solving and working with stakeholders at every level in and outside of an organisation.

Mandatory Requirements

- Demonstrable experience in managing a complex range of resources, giving sound advice and judgement to senior leadership and be well versed at being part of a strong high performing senior management team
- Advanced Excel skills and be highly numerate
- An understanding of accounting principles
- An ability to effectively communicate with a wide range of individuals
- Excellent attention to detail
- High levels of integrity and the ability to maintain confidentiality
- The ability to constructively challenge and hold individuals to account where required.
