  • Helping with budgeting and forecasting.

  • Supporting monthly management reporting and variance analysis.

  • Producing financial analysis and insight to support commercial decisions.

  • Building financial models and supporting business cases.

  • Working with the Financial Accounting team to understand month-end and the financial ledger.

  • Working with budget holders and stakeholders across the business.

  • Learning how to communicate financial information clearly to non-finance audiences.

  • Help stakeholders understand financial performance, identify opportunities and make better informed decisions.

  • Build your understanding of the commercial drivers behind numbers and how they connect to business performance.

  • Taking on increasing responsibility as your knowledge and confidence grow.

What we need from you:

You’ll need:

  • Have a 2:1 degree or above in any discipline.

  • You'll need to have graduated within the last three years in 2026, 2025 or 2024.

  • Finance, Economics, Business, Mathematics or another numerate subject would be an advantage.

  • Have a genuine interest in building a career in commercial finance.

We’d also love to see:

  • A genuine ambition to build a career in finance.

  • Enjoyment working with numbers, data and solving problems.

  • Good Excel skills and are comfortable working with data.

  • Naturally curiosity and want to understand the ‘why’ behind the numbers.

  • Communicate clearly and can explain information to people who aren’t finance specialists.

  • Take initiative and are comfortable working in a fast-paced environment.

  • Are resilient, adaptable and open to feedback.

  • Enjoy working collaboratively and building relationships.
