Location: Hybrid (London, Tower Hill, 3 days a week)
Salary: £50-65k
Employment Type: Full-time
About the Role
- We're looking for a financially minded analyst to help our clients understand the numbers behind their business - not just what a dashboard shows, but whether the underlying revenue, cost, and workforce figures stand up to scrutiny
- As a Financial Insight Analyst, you'll work closely with clients using our analytics platform, applying financial rigour to their revenue, sales, and FTE data to produce recommendations leadership and investors can rely on
- This is a hybrid role combining financial analysis, consulting, and client engagement, with the opportunity to contribute to new business and strategic initiatives
- We specialise in B2B recurring managed services, professional services, and are actively growing into a wider range of markets - you'll gain exposure across sectors as we expand
- We're a small growing team, so you'll have real impact - your work reaches clients directly and shapes how the business grows
What You'll Do
- Analyse client financials - spanning revenue, sales, and workforce/FTE - to assess quality of earnings, identify risks, and surface trends
- Apply due-diligence-style scrutiny to client data: testing definitions, tracing numbers back to source, and flagging where the underlying trends don't support the headline story
- Translate analysis into clear, actionable recommendations that drive business performance
- Act as a trusted advisor, supporting customers to improve commercial outcomes, strengthen data quality and governance, and build strong relationships with stakeholders across your customer base
- Collaborate with the engineering team to shape product development based on client needs
- Support onboarding and ongoing adoption of the platform
- Review and quality-check outputs from our AI-powered analytics assistant before they reach clients

- Strong financial acumen - comfortable interrogating a P&L, understanding revenue recognition, and assessing the quality behind a number, not just the number itself
- Exceptional attention to detail
- Strong ability to tell a story with data and influence decision-making
- Confident communicator, comfortable engaging directly with clients and owning those relationships
- Commercial awareness - able to connect insights to revenue, growth, or efficiency
- Comfortable working alongside AI-powered analytics tools, with genuine interest in how they work
