Financial Analyst

We’re seeking a Financial Analyst with strong financial modeling and analytical capabilities to support business decision-making, strategic planning, and (where applicable) board / investor-facing reporting. This role partners closely with Finance Business Partners and business leaders, turning complex data into clear insights, robust models, and actionable recommendations.

The ideal candidate is highly analytical, comfortable building complex models from scratch (including integrated forecasting and scenario analysis), and able to communicate findings in a concise, executive-ready format. You enjoy working with large datasets, improving the quality of management information, and challenging assumptions to strengthen financial outcomes.

Key Responsibilities 

• Build complex financial models & scenarios: Develop and maintain scalable models (e.g., integrated P&L, balance sheet and cash flow forecasts; long-range plans; sensitivity and scenario analyses; investment / project business cases). Ensure models are well-structured, transparent, and suitable for senior stakeholder review.
• Deliver investor / leadership-grade analysis & storytelling: Prepare monthly/quarterly performance packs and ad-hoc deep dives for leadership (and investors/board where applicable). Translate results into a clear narrative, key drivers, and recommended actions.
• Support planning cycles: Partner with Finance Business Partners to run budgeting, rolling forecasts, and strategic planning processes. Challenge assumptions, ensure cross-functional alignment, and improve forecast accuracy.
• Advanced data analysis & automation: Work with BI/data teams to improve data quality, KPI definitions, and dashboard logic. Automate recurring reporting and model inputs where possible (e.g., Power Query, Power BI, SQL/Python tools).
• Evaluate strategic initiatives: Build and assess business cases for pricing changes, commercial initiatives, cost optimization, headcount planning, and capex. Apply financial techniques such as ROI, NPV/IRR, payback, and break-even analysis.
