Senior Financial Operations Analyst - Global Infrastructure
London | Hybrid
12-Month Contract | £85,000
Global Technology & Infrastructure Organisation
We are recruiting an experienced Senior Financial Operations Analyst to support a major international telecommunications and network infrastructure programme.
This is a broad financial operations and programme coordination role, combining billing, invoice processing, financial reconciliations, purchase order management, cost tracking and reporting with project coordination and international stakeholder management.
You will work across a complex network of external suppliers, investors, telecommunications partners and internal stakeholders across multiple countries.
This is not a traditional FP&A or financial modelling position. We are looking for someone who enjoys the operational side of finance: keeping payments and billing on track, resolving discrepancies, maintaining accurate financial records and ensuring actions are followed through.
What you'll be doing
Your responsibilities will include:
- Managing multi-party billing, invoice processing and financial reconciliations across suppliers and external partners.
- Tracking invoices, payments and outstanding balances, following up on overdue items and resolving billing queries or discrepancies.
- Managing purchase orders, funding requests and payment approval processes, including monitoring PO utilisation and identifying when additional funding is required.
- Supporting cost allocation, capital contribution and cost-sharing reconciliations across multiple participating organisations.
- Producing regular financial reporting, including billing status, ageing, payment, budget and variance reports.
- Supporting annual budgeting, financial true-ups and external audit requests.
- Coordinating with finance contacts, suppliers, investors and telecommunications partners across multiple countries and time zones.
- Organising working-group meetings, including agendas, minutes, action tracking and follow-up.
- Maintaining project and financial documentation, approval workflows, registers and version control.
- Tracking project actions, dependencies, approvals and financial impacts across several simultaneous workstreams.
- Supporting programme dashboards, management reporting and standard operating procedures.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
What we're looking for
We are looking for someone with approximately 5-10 years' experience within financial operations or a related finance environment.
You should have strong practical experience in several of the following areas:
- Financial Operations
- Billing and Invoice Processing
- Accounts Payable / Accounts Receivable
- Financial Reconciliations
- Purchase Order Management
- Payment and Collections Tracking
- Cost Allocation
- Budget and Variance Reporting
- Project Finance / Programme Finance
- Contract Administration
- Financial Reporting
- Stakeholder Management
You will also need excellent organisational skills and the ability to manage multiple deadlines and workstreams simultaneously.
A significant part of the position involves coordinating with external organisations, following up on outstanding invoices, payments, approvals and information. You therefore need to be comfortable dealing with senior stakeholders and persistent in following actions through to completion.
Get help with your application
Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
Strong spreadsheet skills and experience using collaborative tools such as Google Sheets, Google Docs and Google Drive are required.
Particularly relevant backgrounds
Experience within telecommunications, network infrastructure, technology, construction/infrastructure or other complex international project environments would be particularly relevant.
Previous exposure to joint ventures, consortiums, multi-party commercial arrangements, multi-currency finance or international projects would also be advantageous.
Experience working with organisations or projects across Africa and Europe would be useful but is not essential.
What you don't need
You do not need to be a qualified accountant, and ACA/ACCA/CIMA qualification is not a requirement.
This position is much more focused on practical finance operations, billing, reconciliations, coordination and stakeholder management than technical accounting or sophisticated financial modelling.
The opportunity
This is an opportunity to work within a major global technology organisation supporting a large-scale international telecommunications infrastructure programme involving multiple international investors, suppliers and telecommunications partners.
The role offers considerable exposure to complex international financial operations and programme management, with stakeholders operating across Europe, Africa and other international markets.
