- Preparing management information and reporting packs
- Supporting cashflow and profit forecasting
- Reviewing performance against budget and forecast
- Assisting with investment and project appraisal work
- Supporting covenant reporting and financing-related analysis
- Working with non-finance stakeholders to understand key business drivers
- Identifying opportunities to improve reporting, processes and accuracy
- Providing ad hoc analysis to support commercial decision-making

The Candidate
We are looking for someone who is analytical, curious and keen to develop in a commercial finance environment.
You will ideally have:
- Experience in finance, audit, accounts, FP&A, commercial finance or financial analysis
- Part-qualified, recently qualified or working towards CIMA, ACCA or ACA
- Strong Excel skills and confidence working with financial data
- Good understanding of financial statements, budgeting and forecasting
- Strong attention to detail
- Clear communication skills and the ability to work with finance and non-finance stakeholders
- A proactive approach and willingness to learn

This is a great opportunity to join a successful business in a broad FP&A role offering variety, senior exposure and long-term development.
