Are you a newly qualified ACA, ACCA or CIMA accountant looking to move into a highly visible commercial finance role within one of the UK's leading consumer-focused businesses?
Our client is a major UK retail organisation with a national footprint, thousands of employees and a reputation for innovation, growth and investment. Having nearly doubled in size over the last three years, the business continues to invest heavily in its estate, customer proposition and long-term growth strategy, creating outstanding career opportunities for ambitious finance professionals.
This is an excellent opportunity for a newly qualified accountant or someone with up to 12 months' post-qualified experience to join a high-performing commercial finance team. You'll work closely with senior operational stakeholders, helping to influence key investment decisions, challenge performance and drive commercial outcomes across a large, complex business.
The Opportunity
Reporting into a senior finance leader, you'll act as a true finance business partner, providing financial insight and commercial challenge to support investment decisions and strategic projects.
