Financial Analyst
Finance Analyst | Leicester | £50,000 + Bonus + Benefits
If you’re the person people turn to when a dashboard needs rebuilding, a model needs improving or a manual process needs automating, this could be a really good fit
.
We’re working on a confidential search for a well known business in Leicester that wants to significantly improve how its finance team uses data, reporting and technolog
y.
This is not a traditional Financial Analyst role and you do not need to be an accountant or have a formal finance qualificati
on.
The focus is on data, Power BI, modelling, automation and
AI.
You’ll work with large and sometimes complex datasets, building models and dashboards that give senior leadership clearer and more useful information. You’ll improve existing reporting, reduce manual processes and help the wider team make better use of the technology available to
them.
A big part of the role will be understanding what the business needs and then building something that works properly. That could mean developing a new Power BI dashboard, improving the structure of a model, automating a repetitive reporting process or finding a clearer way to present a complicated set of
data.
You’ll also become the go to person across the team for Power BI and advanced Excel, helping colleagues improve their own capability and raising the overall standard of rep
orting.
There is a genuine opportunity to explore how AI can be used across the function too. They are not looking for someone who already has every answer, but they do want somebody curious, technically capable and keen to test ne
w ideas.
