UK Wide (Remote) Occasional Travel Circa £45,000 Travel Expenses Benefits Are you a commercially minded Finance Analyst who enjoys turning numbers into clear, practical actions with the ability to explain financial performance in a way that genuinely helps non-finance stakeholders improve? A well-established UK face-to-face fundraising and sales agency is recruiting a Finance Analyst to support the financial health and operational success of a national network of independently owned, contracted partner businesses. This is a high-impact, relationship-driven analytical role. You'll work closely with business owners each week, reviewing performance, spotting trends and helping them put sensible plans in place to improve profitability, tighten financial discipline and make better decisions, without being heavy-handed or 'corporate'. You'll be the go-to person for reviewing partner financials, creating forecasts, building dashboards, and translating insight into meaningful actions. You'll be confident enough to challenge where needed, but personable enough to do it in a way that builds trust and drives change. Key Responsibilities Conduct regular reviews of partner submissions and financial health (P&L, cashflow, balance sheet), identify trends, risks and performance gaps, and recommend practical corrective actions. Build a clear understanding of revenue drivers, cost structures and the operational causes behind financial results.

Create and maintain dashboards, templates and standardised reporting tools; monitor KPIs and provide clear monthly/quarterly performance updates. Partner with independent business owners via weekly check-ins to review results, agree actions and drive follow-through, explaining insight in a clear, non-technical way. Provide supportive guidance on budgeting, forecasting and financial discipline, helping improve financial understanding across the network. Improve consistency and accuracy of reporting across the partner network, supporting ad hoc investigations, reconciliations and occasional finance-related training. Travel occasionally to partner sites/meetings when face-to-face support will strengthen delivery and relationships.
