An excellent opportunity has arisen to join a global organisation as a Commercial Finance Analyst.

This is not a traditional accounting role. We are seeking a commercially minded finance professional who enjoys analysing financial performance, identifying trends, and providing meaningful insights that support business decision-making.

Working closely with senior stakeholders, you will play a key role in analysing margins, profitability, financial performance and key business metrics across the organisation.

Key Responsibilities

• Analyse financial statements and business performance data to identify trends, risks and opportunities.
• Conduct detailed margin and profitability analysis.
• Perform financial ratio analysis and KPI reporting.
• Investigate variances and provide clear commentary and recommendations.
• Support budgeting, forecasting and business planning activities.
• Develop financial models and scenario analysis to support decision-making.
• Analyse large volumes of data from ERP and reporting systems.
• Partner with stakeholders across the business to provide financial insight and commercial support.

Skills & Experience Required

• Previous experience within Commercial Finance, Financial Analysis, FP&A or Finance Business Partnering.
• Strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
• Experience analysing financial statements, margins, profitability and financial performance.
• Advanced Excel skills and confidence working with large datasets.
• Strong commercial awareness and ability to translate data into business insights.
• Excellent communication skills with the ability to influence stakeholders at all levels.
• Experience using ERP and financial reporting systems.
• ACA, ACCA or CIMA qualification (or studying towards) would be advantageous.

What's on Offer

• Hybrid working arrangement.
• Opportunity to join a successful global organisation.
• Exposure to senior stakeholders and strategic business decisions.
• Commercially focused role with genuine business impact.
• Collaborative and professional working environment.

This role would suit a commercially focused finance professional who is passionate about analysis and business performance, rather than financial accounting or bookkeeping.
