Do you want a finance role that goes beyond the numbers? This is a chance to join a professional services business where commercial thinking, business partnering and data analytics come together, and where your work directly shapes the decisions leaders make.

You’ll sit in the team responsible for delivering analysis and insight across the business. Your role is to turn data into clear, actionable insight, build strong relationships with stakeholders and help steer strategic decisions. It’s a people focused role, the best results here come from understanding the business and the people in it, not just the figures.

We’re looking for someone who is ideally part qualified (CIMA or ACCA) and nearing the end of their studies although candidates at a slightly earlier stage of study will be considered alongside fully qualified candidates. Study support will be offered if required.

Ideally, you will have experience in a similar commercial finance role or analyst position, with strong financial analysis and data analytics skills and advanced Excel. You’ll be confident managing stakeholders and building relationships at all levels and experience within Power BI and SAP would be advantageous but not essential.

A background in professional services or a corporate environment would be ideal due to the nature of the business and a genuine interest in data analytics and commercial finance would help.

What you will be responsible for –

• Supporting the month end by making agreed accounting adjustments and supporting with P&L reviews
• Producing reporting packs with associated commentary and variance analysis
• Owning reporting deliverables including KPI reporting, making sure outputs are complete and delivered to agreed timescales
• Providing analytical support to the Senior Commercial Finance Manager and business partnering with stakeholders, providing data and analysis
• Contributing to the annual budget and planning process
• Finding practical ways to improve reporting processes, while maintaining stakeholder requirements, controls, testing and output quality
• Supporting the team on various commercial projects when needed
