Finance Analyst - Graduate Opportunity

Finance Analyst

Location: Thorpe Park, Leeds, Hybrid working.

Join us as a Finance Analyst and play a key part within our UK Finance team. You'll focus on analysing what's driving performance across the business and sharing those insights with your team and the wider finance community, including Treasury. It's a great opportunity for a recent graduate to take the next step and start building a long-term career in finance.

In this role, you'll get hands-on with real business data, turning numbers into clear, easy-to-understand insights that help people make better decisions. You'll work closely with colleagues to support forecasts for income, costs and cash flow, and play a key role in budgeting and reforecasting throughout the year. Using tools like Excel, you'll spot trends, build simple models and help explain what's really going on behind the numbers. You'll also share your findings in a clear and engaging way, from team updates through to board-level reports, while gaining exposure across different areas of finance to help you learn and grow.

What we need from you:

• Recent graduate or around 1 years' experience in a finance or related role
• Previous experience in a medium-sized finance team would be an advantage
• Confident using Microsoft Office, particularly Excel (modelling experience is a plus) and PowerPoint
• Strong attention to detail with good analytical skills
• Curious, proactive and keen to learn, with a willingness to build technical knowledge

If you're excited about this role but don't meet every requirement - don't worry, still apply. Your unique perspective could be just what we're looking for.

What you'll get:

• A discretionary annual bonus to reward your impact
• 3% flexible benefits that you can tailor to suit your lifestyle, whether that's extra cash, more holiday, or added health cover.
• Hybrid working for the best of both worlds-collaboration and focus.
• Free onsite parking, saving you time and money.
• Recharge and refresh opportunities with 28 days of holiday plus public holidays, and the option to buy up to five more-giving you more time for what matters most.
• Peace of mind with life assurance that supports your loved ones, no matter what.
• A culture that celebrates you and supports your wellbeing - with recognition awards, access to on-site gym facilities, and a variety of wellbeing initiatives offered throughout the year to help you stay balanced, resilient and feeling your best.
• Encouragement to be your authentic self at work by joining one of our vibrant employee networks-like Rise (Gender), Proud (LGBTQIA+), Culture, or Spark (Neurodiversity & Disability) - and connect with a community that celebrates and supports you.
