Finance Analyst

You know your numbers. But do you want to see them actually make a difference?

This isn’t just about spreadsheets and reconciliations. If you're looking to do more than report on performance – this is your chance to influence it.

This Finance Analyst role gives you exposure across operations, commercial teams, and senior management. You’ll turn financial data into decisions – and those decisions will directly impact how the business runs.

What you’ll be doing (and why it matters)

You’ll be involved in a variety of financial tasks – invoicing, forecasting, reporting, credit control, and producing analysis for leadership. You’ll work closely with the Operations team, keeping internal systems accurate and up to date, while also producing reporting packs and insights that feed into business strategy.

This is a role where accuracy matters, but so does curiosity. There’s plenty of scope to question, investigate, and suggest improvements. It’s not about doing things the way they’ve always been done.

What you’ll need to bring

• Experience in a finance, billing, analyst, or assistant accountant role

• Strong Excel skills (pivot tables, formulas, lookups as standard)

• Attention to detail and the ability to spot inconsistencies in financial data

• Confidence liaising with operations, directors, and external contacts

• Comfortable managing workload across monthly deadlines and ad hoc requests

• Commercial thinking – not just ticking boxes

You don’t need to be qualified, but being part-qualified (AAT / ACCA / CIMA) or actively studying would be useful.

What’s on offer

• Salary: £25,000 – £30,000 depending on experience

• Hybrid working after training: 3 days in the office, 2 from home

• Working hours: 9.00am – 5.00pm, Monday to Friday (30-minute lunch)

• Location: Blackpool – with free on-site parking

• Holiday: 22 days, increasing to 25 with length of service (plus bank holidays)

• Standard pension scheme

• Supportive team environment with opportunities for development

Who this would suit

Someone in their finance career, wanting to step into a role with commercial exposure. You’ll enjoy being involved in operational conversations and won’t shy away from chasing payments or resolving discrepancies.

There’s room here to grow into more senior finance or commercial analysis roles – but first and foremost, the team is looking for someone they can rely on to get the numbers right and keep things running smoothly.

What next?

You don’t need a perfect CV. If you’re interested, just send me what you have and I’ll take it from there.
