Job Title: Finance Analyst

Location: London Office in Chancery Lane

What You’ll be Doing

• You'll be a core part of a small finance function, reporting directly to the Finance Manager, with exposure to the leadership team, the board and our investors from early on

• Success in this role looks like management reporting the business trusts, a close that runs to a predictable rhythm, and analysis that changes what leadership decides

• Running our month end close to deliver management accounts that senior stakeholders can act on with confidence

• Building and maintaining our budgeting, forecasting and cash flow processes to inform and underpin company strategy

• Analysis and interpretation of business costs and performance against plan, providing insight throughout the business

• Owning the finance operations that keep the company moving day to day, from payroll through to payments

• Taking end to end responsibility for our year end audit, statutory reporting and compliance calendar

• Preparing analysis and materials for the board and our investors, with the opportunity to take ownership of the financial model over time

• Scanning the horizon for bottlenecks in the finance function before they arrive, and targeting them with better process and automation

• Designing and embedding the controls and routines a scaling business needs, so the function can grow without growing headcount

• Managing the relationships with the external partners who support our finance function

What We’re Looking For

• A strong command of the fundamentals: financial statements, reporting, and the accounting that sits behind the numbers

• One to three years at a Big 4 or another leading mid-tier firm, or in a finance team in industry, part qualified ACA or ACCA

• Ambitious, and looking to develop and progress quickly in a fast growing company

• Advanced Excel or Google Sheets, with strong financial modelling ability and the capacity to turn financial data into clear, actionable insight

• Commercially minded, and able to communicate complex financial movements clearly and concisely to people outside finance

• An inquisitive approach to the day to day, with a desire to question and challenge the numbers and to understand the business behind them

• Excellent analytical and problem solving ability, highly numerate, with a real drive for accuracy

• A natural instinct to automate and improve rather than repeat

• Comfortable operating in an ambiguous environment, managing changing and conflicting priorities

• Strong organisational skills, with a proven record of meeting and beating deadlines

• Experience of Xero or similar accounting software preferred; familiarity with data and reporting tools an advantage

• Self motivated, able to work autonomously, and conscientious with it
