Graduate Finance Analyst

Build your finance career in an industry that is not standing still.

This is a finance graduate role in one of the UK's most exciting growth markets.

You'll be joining a business expanding across the UK and Europe, with a finance team close enough to give you proper support and a role broad enough to show you how the whole business works.

You won't be tucked away doing one narrow task on repeat.

Why this could beat the usual graduate finance role

You'll work closely with a Finance Director who is commercially involved and used to developing people. There is already a proven route here for someone bright, curious and willing to learn.

You'll also get involved in systems improvement giving you exposure to automation, reporting improvements and finance transformation early in your career.
