- Develop financial models and scenario analysis to support decision-making.
- Analyse large volumes of data from ERP and reporting systems.
- Partner with stakeholders across the business to provide financial insight and commercial support.
Skills & Experience Required - Previous experience within Commercial Finance, Financial Analysis, FP&A or Finance Business Partnering.
- Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
- Experience analysing financial statements, margins, profitability and financial performance.
- Advanced Excel skills and confidence working with large datasets.
- Strong commercial awareness and ability to translate data into business insights.
- Excellent communication skills with the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels.
- Experience using ERP and financial reporting systems.
- ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualification (or studying towards) would be advantageous.
What's on Offer - Hybrid working arrangement.
- Opportunity to join a successful global organisation.
- Exposure to senior stakeholders and strategic business decisions.
- Commercially focused role with genuine business impact.
- Collaborative and professional working environment.
This role would suit a commercially focused finance professional who is passionate about analysis and business performance, rather than financial accounting or bookkeeping.
