Job description

👥 About the team

We are currently evolving our function from traditional reporting into a data-driven strategic powerhouse. We’ve ditched the clunky, manual spreadsheets of the past for a warehouse-first approach.

Operating at the intersection of Financial Planning and Data Analytics, we use a modern stack (BigQuery, Python, and Hex) to find the "why" behind the numbers. If you believe finance should be a strategic partner rather than just a reporting centre, you’ll fit right in.

🚀 About the role & impact

As our new Financial Analytics Associate, you’ll be the bridge between raw data and commercial action. This isn't about just keeping the lights on; it’s about upgrading the bulb to a smart-sensor LED.

You will help us move away from manual legwork and toward performing deep statistical analysis. Your mission is to build scalable, self-serve models that allow the business to move fast, while you focus on providing the high-impact commentary that shapes our future.

🎯 What you will

• Analyse spend, evaluate channel performance, and help set CPA targets that actually align with our financial north star.

• Support end-to-end forecasting using warehouse data and statistical trends.

• Partner with the Financial Control team to ensure budget-setting is seamless and integrated into our strategic reporting.

• Collaborate across Ops and Marketing to sniff out opportunities to improve unit economics and maximise performance.

• Provide the "voice" for the data—delivering clear, actionable commentary that keeps the leadership team informed.

🌟 Who you are

• Are Newly Qualified (or up to 1 year PQE). You’ve got your ACCA, CIMA, ACA, or equivalent under your belt and are ready to apply it.

• A Data-First Thinker: You’ve moved past "Excel-only" thinking. You have a modern analytics mindset and are either already proficient in, or obsessed with mastering, SQL, Python, and Hex to replace manual legwork with code.

• A D2C Enthusiast: You speak the language of subscriptions. You live and breathe unit economics, intuitively understanding how CPA and Acquisition ROI flow into LTV, Churn, and Cohort analysis.

• An Efficiency Architect: You aren't afraid of the "AI revolution", you’re leading it. You’re keen to integrate LLMs into your daily workflow to automate the mundane and protect your time for high-value analysis.

• A Storyteller of Complexity: You have the rare ability to take messy, multi-source data and distill it into accurate, scalable P&L and Cash Flow models that tell a clear, compelling story.
