Role Overview

This position offers an exciting opportunity to join the growing Commercial Finance team, providing valuable exposure to finance and operational areas. The Finance Analyst will support a significant business unit by delivering financial insights and commercial analyses to enhance financial and operational outcomes.

A crucial aspect of this role is to improve the budgeting and forecasting processes by simplifying current methods, creating standardised financial models, and ensuring financial data effectively informs decision-making.

Key Responsibilities

  • Assist with preparing annual budgets and monthly reforecasts, collaborating with business leaders to formulate precise financial plans.
  • Evaluate and enhance existing budget models, creating simplified, standardised, and scalable budgeting templates.
  • Analyze financial performance, trends, and variances to provide actionable commercial insights for management.
  • Support month-end activities, including preparation of management accounts, variance analysis, and financial performance reports.
  • Work closely with operational and commercial stakeholders to align financial results with business activities.
  • Develop consistent methods for monitoring key operating expenses and identifying cost-saving opportunities.
  • Track contract and project profitability, identify underperforming segments, and assist with corrective measures.
  • Monitor key cost and margin factors, supplying analysis to assist operational and strategic decisions.

Candidate Requirements

  • Qualified or part-qualified ACA, ACCA, or an equivalent professional finance certification.
  • Proven experience in financial analysis, financial planning and analysis (FP&A), or a similarly commercial finance-focused role.
  • Strong expertise in budgeting, forecasting, and variance analysis.
  • Advanced proficiency in Excel and financial modelling techniques.
  • Excellent analytical skills with the ability to interpret financial data and discern key commercial trends.
  • Experience in facilities management or a related sector is advantageous but not essential.
