- Supporting the development of business cases and tracking of financial performance against objectives

To be considered, please meet the following criteria:
- Fully qualified accountant (e.g. ACA, ACCA, CIMA). Finalists with their final exams booked in can be considered.
- Prior experience working in a decision-support role in a large, complex organisation
- Proven ability to interpret financial data and deliver clear, actionable insight
