- Hybrid working 3 days in, 2 days from home
- Based just outside the city centre with parking
What you’ll do:
- Collaborate with the operations team to help clients build and present financial data packs
- Analyse financial structures and support clients on PE investments, restructuring, and reorganisations
- Provide insight for trade and work closely with external stakeholders and other financial institutions
- Present financial information to internal and external stakeholders in a clear, commercial way
- Support due diligence work and ensure compliance with accounting standards
What they’re looking for:
- ACA or ACCA qualified (within the last 2–3 years), ideally from a Top 25 firm
- Strong technical grounding, but with a commercial mindset and entrepreneurial drive
- Comfortable interpreting financial data, spotting opportunities, and asking the right questions
- Confident communicator – someone who can engage clients and explain the numbers
- Experience or interest in PE or restructuring is a bonus
