Build financial reporting and planning applications from the ground up.
Design and configure group reporting structures and Excel-based data templates.
Import data from multiple source systems and set up analysis tools.
Create final reports and presentations for executive use.

What We’re Looking For

A relevant Financial Degree (BCom Finance or equivalent) or completed CIMA.
Strong knowledge of financial reporting, budgeting, and forecasting.

Strong communication skills and confidence in engaging directly with clients.
A problem-solver with initiative, energy, and ownership.

We’d Love to See if You Can…

When screening, we’ll be looking for candidates who:

Can build financial models from scratch (not just update templates).
Show initiative in setting up new reporting packs by asking the right questions and designing scalable solutions.
Double-check accuracy using controls, reconciliations, and validations – not just trust the system.
Clearly understand concepts like Budget YTD and how to automate it in Excel.
Can handle interruptions by staying flexible and focused while supporting others when needed.
