About the Role

~1 min read

We're looking for a Senior Financial Analyst to join the Finance team, reporting to the Head of Finance. This isn't a role where you'll sit behind a spreadsheet in isolation: you'll be embedded with the teams you support, turning numbers into a story that helps the business make better, faster and more accurate decisions.

The best person for this role is genuinely curious about the why of the performance, not just the what. You'll be the person who spots that a margin dip is really a promo-mix issue, or that a strong month was carried by one channel, and can explain it in a sentence a non-finance colleague immediately understands. If you love the moment a messy dataset resolves into a clear insight, you'll enjoy it here.
