Business Analyst - Finance

About The Role We are currently recruiting for a skilled Finance Business Analyst to join our Bristol colleagues on a permanent basis. Reporting into an Analysis Team Lead, you’ll be working as an integral part of the Finance Product team to support with analysis, system configuration and delivery. As the main Finance expert in the Technology function, you will be looking to build your expertise across all areas of our financial systems and provide support to wider company initiatives across multiple Product teams.

About You You’re an experienced Finance Business Analyst with a track record of delivering insight‑driven solutions that make a tangible and demonstrative difference. You’re equally comfortable operating autonomously or collaborating within a multidisciplinary team, and you thrive in environments where technology, data, and process intersect. You’re a qualified accountant with experience of working in finance and have a good understanding of both operational finance and general ledger accounting.

Your approach is inquisitive and outcomes focused, and you’re driven to understand how change enables value for customers and colleagues alike. You ask the right questions, at the right time, to uncover underlying needs, and you’re confident in navigating ambiguity to shape clear, actionable outcomes. You possess strong communication skills, using a range of techniques to engage stakeholders, build consensus, and challenge where needed.

You’re naturally inclined to think critically about risk, efficiency, and the balance between short‑term pragmatism and long‑term value. Above all, you’re passionate about the craft of analysis, and applying this in the Finance domain, whether that’s improving processes, uncovering insights through data, or playing a key role in shaping service direction. You bring initiative, curiosity, and professional maturity to your work, and you take pride in contributing to a high‑performing team.

Minimum Criteria We value individuals who are engaged, motivated self‑starters. Being able to clearly communicate is vital, as is a drive to fully understand business processes and the needs that drive them. You’ll also need to have a keen attention to detail, a natural curiosity that leads you to confidently question scenarios, and the professional skillset to analyse and document your findings clearly and accurately.

You are either a qualified accountant or can demonstrate comparable experience in a Finance role. You have experience of working in either a BA role, or in an equivalent process improvement / systems implementation role, preferably in an agile environment. Data analysis skills are desirable, but not a strict pre‑requisite.

A drive to continually develop and be engaged with your own development journey is also desirable. Who you’ll be working with Whilst you’ll report to an Analysis Team Lead, you’ll work directly with your development team, who won’t necessarily be Analysts and may come from a variety of disciplines within the technology space. The Analysis team do, however, work closely with each other to understand skills and techniques currently in use to ensure best practice and continuous improvement.

There is an expectation that you be engaged with this, and value the opportunities that come from the collective expertise within the team.
